Fox News Analyst: US Needs to Take Firm Stand Supporting Uighurs in China

WSJ: China's draconian policies in Xinjiang stem in part from fears that the Uighurs, a Muslim ethnic group who speak a Turkic language, want to secede from China.

We don’t support people in Iran trying to free themselves from tyranny and you want us to go to China and mess around with an ethnic minority that doesn’t amount to a pile of dog doo? Tell me I am dreaming. Tell me this isn’t happening. LOL LOL LOL LOL

So the Chinese are doing to the Muslims what Muslims have been doing to everyone else any where they’ve become the majority. Don’t forget China is holding at least 400 billion in Fannie Mae paper.

OK, if Texas, or some other state in the Union, decides to secede, will the US government – and that Fox analyst – give them a pat on the back, and let them leave peacefully? Remember what the Clintons and Janet Reno did to a wacky religious group in Waco? What if that had been an entire state?

The fact is that Chines Uigurs mobs killed 150+ innocent Chines Hans and other ethnic group people. I don’t understand why the anchor urged US government to “take firm stand supporting Uigurs in China” this time. Chinese Uigurs have preferential treatment (like “affirmative action”) in all most everything to Chinese Hans in that region but if some Chinese beat up and kill other innocent Chinese, they shouldn’t be tried the same way no matter what race/ethnic group he belongs to. Think about LA riot after Rodney King case. Did any foreign government “take firm stand supporting” those mobs?

I have to say that any race/ethnic group has majority of good citizens and bad criminals. We shouldn’t support just anyone who cause trouble to Chinese government just because we don’t like Chinese government.

the anchor urged US government to “take firm stand supporting Uigurs in China”, so that he can watch more Han chinese killed.

Why doesn’t the Taliban send support to their Muslim brothers & sisters, the Uighurs. Ans. The hihest ranking Commie in Urumqi. “To those who committed crimes with cruel means – we wuill execute them” NO CLUB GITMO FOR YOU.

Sorry, ordinarily I would support the Uighurs but I cannot support islam anywhere against anyone. islam is a cancer on the world and any form of surgery is appropriate.
