"The Uighurs have waged a simmering rebellion against Chinese rule, with some drawn to the militant Islam that has buffeted Central Asia."

Very, very true.

 

Most of the news from China is suppressed! and only few like this pop out occassionally

In the Western province Chinese are also facing the same problem with the terrorist groups like Al Qaeda but they have never accepted it..

Some say China is ethnic cleansing the entire area to get rid of this menance but no one knows what is happening there !!!!!!

 

No one knows what is happening there is true. The areas are remote and travel is restricted.

 

A group of men just do not become terrorist out of nothing. They have to get motivated, they have to hava a cause in which to beleive and get philosophy from somewhere, so they can believe that killing others and sacrificing their lives for the cause is the right thing to do.
Have you noticen when most of the time whe they kill somebody they say "Allahu Akbar"? So as to speak they kill in the name of God, they do it for God. .......(My God for example forbids killing.)
Sadly for all the good muslims and nonmuslims around the world they get their inspiration from the Quran.

 

please find me in that link, a word of terrorist.
if a muslim kill another people they should be a terrorist.

 

What do you call people that attack a police station and kill 16 policeman?

The People's Liberation Army, on its highest state of military alert in three decades, counts the East Turkistan Islamic Movement in Xinjiang as the nation's biggest potential terror threat.

They are at the highest alert because of the Olympics not because of some rebelion going on there. No country wants the bombing incident like the one at Atlanta Olympics. I think that was by muslims too

BEIJING (AP) — China's official Xinhua News Agency says an unknown group of people has attacked a border patrol station on the country's frontier with Central Asia, leaving dozens of police officers injured.

Dont jump to conclusion that fast.

 

I haven't jumped to any conclusions

 

What does your country call people (PKK) who killed thousands of innocent people in the past and keep killing? REBELS!

Correct yourselves first.

 

Cnn isn't representative of the entire country. Most media is biased anyway.

 

Exactly...

 

Ha, ha, ha. Very good one!

Turks like double standards as long as they fit them, but wait and see when they don't fit them.

I tend to believe more and more that Islam is the religion of choice for most terrorists the world is facing today.
That is the truth, no one can deny it.

Are there any other terrorists other than the Islamic ones? Yes there are, but not religion based ones. (Bush brought terror to Iraq, but he did it for Oil. Israel sometimes does it for land. Small terrorist groups around the world are not affiliated to a religion.)

One can hardly find a muslim country without any sort of terrorism going on. What does tell you?

 

I didn't call these people rebels, I just had to quote bogart there. I don't like double standards, and I'm not a Muslim. Just for your info.

 

There was a time, when we had a province that want to liberate from Indonesia. They constantly attack police stations, kidnapped, attacked or even killed both military or civillian.
But we not called them terrorist, no other countries called them terrorist, we called them Free Aceh movement or GAM in indonesian.
Right now one of the GAM leader become the governor of Aceh.

 

american, i don't care muslims or their religion but don't talk about Turks, what do you know about china? or nuclear tests on innocent people? or tibet?

East Turkistan people defend their homeland, what do you know about Turkistan? nothing and nothing. Turkistan is the homeland of Turks, and not declared 232 years ago

as a superior race member, i don't recommend talk about Turks, also are we talking about your incoming "N" president?

let your brain come to 2008 from middle ages, you are talking about only muslims and jews. Religions are nothing more than an attempt to control an population.

 

the muslims in china have wanted their own STATE just for muslims for a while now...but now international media is covering it since 9 out of 10 nations has this issue

 

One person terrorist is another mans freedom fighter.
There is always more to there stories.
If China occupied part of NY I bet a lot more than 16 would get zapped!
It's a matter of Geography.

 

hahahahhahaa

you really need help.

 

are u kidding me...

check in the 90s before spet 11, chinese muslims killed non muslims

and every country in asia has fought some type of battle with islamic extremists
now in the last 10 years has the west been fighting them
