HONG KONG - Hong Kong activists called off protests on Wednesday in remembrance of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the United States and denounced a Chinese state newspaper report that they were planning “massive terror” in the Chinese-ruled city.

“Anti-government fanatics are planning massive terror attacks, including blowing up gas pipes, in Hong Kong on September 11,” the Hong Kong edition of the China Daily said on its Facebook page, alongside a picture of the hijacked airliner attacks on the twin towers in New York. The former British colony of Hong Kong returned to China in 1997 under a “one country, two systems” formula that guarantees freedoms not enjoyed on the mainland, including an independent legal system, triggering the anger over the extradition bill.

“Children of all ages are indoctrinated with police hatred and anti-establishment beliefs at school and online mobilized to conduct massive school strikes,” she told the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva.“My fervent hope is that we can bridge our divide by upholding the one country, two systems principle, and the Basic Law, and through the concerted efforts of the government and the people of Hong Kong,” she told business leaders.

PaulNo155 They deserve their freedom, as do all human beings who have not committed atrocities to mankind. They also deserve the fruits of their labor, not to have it taken away 'for the good of the collective' but given to the 'Elites'!

Hong Kong is now facing terrorist attacks planned by CCP. We stand in solidarity with the US against terrorism.

Can we trade them for the communists and socialists we have here?

HongKong HongKongProtests China HK stands with US. We are different from China. China uses fake news to scare and defame us everyday.

Non essentials of misled abandonment. Hong Kong from the scholarship of facility. Advantage of peaceful disassembly by the well-tempered demonstration. Hong Kong's recognition of shadow coordinated nearness, in fact, demonstrates the free carry-over to the next day, citywide.

It was a tragedy and we shall neverforget . CCP-controlled media discredited the HK protestors by spreading fake news about the terrorism attack plan in 911Day . It is false and disrespectful to the victims. Instead, We must standwithUS , just like how they StandwithHK .

Better relationship between the U.S. and Hong Kong. Who is crying? Ans: Chinazi

Free Hk

With all due respect to the victims of 911, Hiroshima & Nagasaki atomicbombs were detonated on Aug 6 & 9, 1945. They didn't seem to care much about that last month. HKprotesters

NeverForget StandWithHongKong

A view point from a ordinary HKer: I still remember the night watching live on tv, as a 10yo kid. I also felt the sadness at the memmorial site in NY as a uni exchange student. Today, experiencing terrorist attack on 831 mtr at our home, I truly understood what 911 meant to US.

Meanwhile Chinese users on weibo (China version of Twitter) share heartless comments about how the victims deserved to die. How well chinazi brainwashing works. 911Anniversary standwithUS

Wow. Let's offer them statehood. Screw the CCP.

Hkers won't consume others' tragedy to earn political advantages. They are moral and respectful. More importantly, they really want to pay tribute to those suffer from this incident. Nobody shd hv suffered from it. Don't let hatred blind your eyes. NeverForget NeverAgain

911 have a special meaning for US, it is shameless for China to issue this fake news. HK protesters were very young on year 2001, but we all know the sad of 911, God bless America

They experienced two state backed terrors attack in 3 months. Do you really understand what they feel about terrors attack ?

Something Fishy... is fishing around...

Wish trump would have

Between the flags, singing the national anthem, & this, I don’t think HK cares about or likes the US. Feels like they just want to use us like a Dixie cup. I support their efforts regardless, I just don’t like all of... this.😒

they r just speculate, the killed in this terrorist attack will be angry in the heaven for they just use there death as a benefit to there violent acts.

Odd move. Why not remember others?

redsteeze I pretty much love the Hong Kong protestors. 🇺🇸🙏

redsteeze Can we trade the cowards in antifa for these patriots?

The HongKongProtesters are good and decent people fighting NaziChina. God bless them all. StandWithHongKong NeverForget

Their CIA handlers must have told them it would be a kind, sympathetic gesture

If the Democrats, the kneeling NFL millionaires, Hollywood and other radicals liked and respected America like the heroic people of Hong Kong, we would be in great shape.

redsteeze can we take them here and give hong kong and china the antifa ?
