i recently saw a Frontline documentary regarding this very erasure of  
history that was quite interesting
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/tankman/
it also discussed growing popular unrest - demonstrations against the  
state and economic policies from 50,000 in number 2 years ago to  
87,000 for 2005.
best,
ryan
