Hi CB, A second front on your ... Message 17854877 You are not taking in the entire hideous picture of an ugly tapestry of narrow selfish interest, even if at the cost of same convoluted self-interest. By the US officialdom logic, a Uighur with a bomb on a bus in Xinkiang is a freedom fighter, but qualifies for Cuban jail without habeaus whatever if caught in Afghanistan. China tried to cooperate for the supposed greater good, and was failed. Note the dates of the reports: christiansciencemonitor.com <<The report concludes that China itself may be involved in supporting the camps, either by tacitly allowing Islamic radicals of the ethnic Uighur minority in China's western Xinjiang Province to cross into Pakistan to join Al Qaeda, or overtly offering to provide Al Qaeda with antiaircraft missiles>> stratfor.com <<"Terrorism" Definition Testing U.S.-China Ties 14 December 2001 Summary The Chinese government is calling for the United States to hand over ethnic Uighurs from Xinjiang province who were captured while fighting with Taliban forces in Afghanistan. Washington has thus far refused, as it does not recognize Uighur separatists as terrorists. For Beijing, this is a test case for Washington's stance that there are no good terrorists, and it may have broader implications for U.S.-Chinese relations.>> stratfor.com <<Chinese Cleanup Targets Uighurs 16 May 2001 Summary Through the end of May, the Chinese government will target ethnic minorities in northwest China under an official cleanup program aimed for criminals and separatists. The targets are the region's ethnic Uighurs, a group marked by the Chinese government for having ambitions for an independent state. China's western frontier is secure for now, but Chinese forces are routing separatist influences across the border to protect strategic domestic interests>> Chugs, Jay
