「六四屠夫」李鵬病殁 “June 4 Butcher” Li Peng Died

什麼這個國家的花圈裏/總是滲出鮮血/為什麼這些腳不能自由走動/為什麼總是孩子們/一輩輩走上街頭(當代 徐敬亞)

有份決定鎮壓八九民運的國務院前總理李鵬,前日(22日)在北京病逝,終年91歲。今年是六四30周年,在中共昨日所發訃告中,指他在六四中,「採取果斷措施制止動亂,平息反革命暴亂……發揮重要作用」,李鵬屠夫責任載入史冊,等待人民的終極審判。

支聯會昨晚發聲明,指當年主張或贊同武力鎮壓學運的「鄧(鄧小平)李(李鵬)楊(尚昆)集團」最後一人李鵬去世,中共應盡快公布六四真相,平反八九民運、追究屠城責任。

當年在21名學生通緝令中排名榜首、現居美國的王丹表示:「李鵬是六四屠殺的執行者和劊子手,已經被釘在歷史的恥辱柱上。」

李鵬死訊傳出後,大陸媒體低調處理。美國兩大報章《紐約時報》中文版及《華盛頓郵報》均顯著報道,以「北京屠夫」稱呼李鵬。

社會民主連線今中午到中聯辦,慶祝屠夫李鵬死有餘辜。

Li Peng, the former Chinese premier whom human rights groups dubbed the “butcher of Beijing” for his role in the deadly 1989 crackdown on peaceful demonstrators in Tiananmen Square, died July 22. He was 90.

Chinese CommunistParty (CCP) described Li as taking “decisive measures to stop the unrest, quell the counterrevolutionary riots” during June 4. Li Peng’s butchering responsibility goes down in history, waiting for people’s ultimate judgment.

The Alliance for Democracy in China said of Li Peng, the last person of the “Deng (Xiaoping) Li (Peng) Yang (Shangkun) Group” who advocated or endorsed the use of force to suppress the student movement. The CCP should reveal the truth of the June 4th as soon as possible and redress June 4, and investigate the responsibility of the massacre.

Wang Dan, who ranked first in 21 student wanted after June 4, said: “Li Peng is the executor and executioner of the June 4 massacre, and has been nailed to history’s pillar of shame.”

After the death of Li Peng, the mainland media handled it in a low-key manner. The two major newspapers in the United States, the New York Times and the Washington Post, reported this prominently, both calling Li Peng “Beijing Butcher.”

The League of Social Democrats went to the China Liaison Office at noon today and celebrated the death of the butcher Li Peng.
