Other security forces carrying automatic rifles with bayonets formed cordons to defend Muslim neighborhoods from marauding groups of vigilantes with sticks.

Uyghur, perhaps? I’m not sure. That fellow has since been found “not criminally responsible” for the murder: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Tim_McLean

Might our neocon “friends” clear up this issue for us, before embarking on “Kumbiyas” with the Uyghurs?

[Good thinking. I wonder if that cannibalizer of a young “infidel” was Uyghur.]

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Turkestan_Islamic_Movement

I think the current organization leaders are Joe “Yussef” Lieberman, William “Mohammed” Kristol, and Richard “Abdul” Cheney. When does East Turkestan join Kosovo and Chehnya in NATO?

P.S. Perhaps one can we trade Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney for Cpl. Shalit?

In reality this is just another manifestation of what the late Samuel Huntington aptly described as “Islam’s bloody borders.” China’s situation is not all that different then what is happening in Kashmir, the Caucasus region of Russia, Sudan, Kosovo, Thailand, the southern Philippines, Israel\”Palestine,” Indonesia, Cyprus, and Nigeria.
