None
The mysterious removal of a statue of Confucius opposite Beijing's Tiananmen Square has left many Chinese looking for an explanation. One report says the monument was simply moved inside a nearby museum.
a Fox News report noted that the statue of the 2,500-year-old sage was unveiled just three months ago in the communist government's most visible endorsement yet of a cultural icon it had once reviled. But it was gone Saturday from outside the recently reopened National Museum of China. (News agencies)
