Rules for Respectable Commentary (from AntiWar.com)

Moon of Alabama concludes Hong Kong protests are a western-backed Color Revolution, counterproductive to most people of Hong Kong, and almost over anyway.

Reading in the comments, there is evidence Tianemen Square was a western-backed Color Revolution also: the architect of Color Revolutions, Gene Sharp, had just visited China when those protests broke out.

The galvanizing event in Hong Kong was the arrest of a murderer that would have required trial in the mainland.  China tried to change the rules to permit extradiction.  There was a large protest, and China backed down.  However a smoldering protest continued, with Western backing and planning.

Color Revolutions always start with a galvanizing local event.  The ultimate goal is to force the government to respond with bloody force, allowing the government to be further demonized in a downward spiral of de-legitimation, with foreign aided rebels ready to step in with a new government when the old one bails.

Moon of Alabama also looks at the troop numbers and concludes the "Syrian Civil War" has mostly been a western-backed invasion.  Native pro-Syrian Government fighters are 96% native.  Rebel fighters are 60% foreign born.
