US 'must fight for Palestine' by Thursday 15 December 2005 9:54 AM GMT A flag is little use without a functioning state America’s fight against terrorism will fail unless it leads efforts to create a viable Palestinian state, according to the former Australian prime minister. Bob Hawke, speaking on Thursday at a global peace forum in Kuala Lumpur, said: "Nothing effective can be done while the festering sore of the Palestinian problem co...
US church rebukes Israel for barrier by Sunday 14 August 2005 7:09 AM GMT The wall is splitting the church's Jerusalem assembly into three A five-million-strong US church has rebuked Israel for building a separation barrier along the West Bank, becoming the second major US Protestant denomination to reject policies implemented by the Jewish state. The resolution titled "Peace Not Wall" was adopted on Saturday on a 668-269 vote by members...
There is no doubt this is based on separatist activity. I have found the claims of the Uighur Protesters contradicted in so many ways. A few interesting facts: 1. Xinjiang has 13 Ethnic Minorities, most of which are Muslims, yet only Uighur's are protesting and they are the majority in Xinjiang http://www.china.org.cn/english/MATERIAL/139389.htm 2. Uighur's are exempt from China's one child policy 3. The two Uighur's killed in the Shaoguan Toy Fac...
Bet you were only there as a tourist. Offcourse, you only saw what China wants to present Xinkiang to the world. Suggest you talk to local people, and special those living in south part of Xinkiang next time when you are there.

As a chinese muslim, good for you, you are not practicing your religion th...
I do not agree with people complaining that Uighur's are protesting. It is your right to protest if you want, and there were a lot of people bashing Uighur's for this. I do not agree with some of the racists bashing Uighur's, unfortunately in Canada there are lots of racists who do not like new Canadians. But what I do not understand, is that I cannot find any solid information about why some Uighur's are upset with China. I have heard the accusations, but hav...
I am very saddened at the violence in Xinjiang, where fellow Chinese (Han and Uighur) have been fighting amongst each other. I hope that the people of Xinjiang will not fall into the trap and violence that was set by separtists. Regardless of your ethnic background, China has the policy that "everyone is Chinese" and that achieving peace and harmony can only be done through equal treatment of all citizens. I also do not think it is fair to villify Uighurs ...
