Hugh Fitzgerald: China Ratchets Up Its Anti-Islam Campaign in Xinjiang (Part Three)

Apr 26, 2019 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

In August, a United Nations human rights panel said it had received many credible reports that a million or more Uighurs and other minorities are being held in what resembles a “massive internment camp that is shrouded in secrecy” in Xinjiang. China says it is not enforcing arbitrary detention and political re-education. Aside from the […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: China Ratchets Up Its Anti-Islam Campaign in Xinjiang (Part One)

Apr 24, 2019 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

In May 2018, the Chinese Ambassador to Pakistan, Yao Jing, gave a lengthy interview to a Pakistani paper defending the Chinese government’s treatment of the Muslim Uighurs. Among other claims, he insisted that the Chinese government has given full freedom to the Muslims and allowed them to observe fasting during Ramazan [Ramadan]. Muslims in China, […]

Chinese police order Xinjiang’s Muslims to hand in all copies of the Qur’an

Sep 28, 2017 6:17 pm By Robert Spencer

I’m not in favor of banning books. Thought control and thought police are hallmarks of totalitarian regimes, and we’re getting perilously close to living under that boot on the face in the West. The Chinese authorities, like all totalitarians, are going to discover that they cannot entirely suppress thoughts through force. That said, this is […]

China bans ‘certain Islamic names’ in Muslim-dominated region

Apr 26, 2017 2:37 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Names with strong religious meanings like Islam, Koran, Mecca, Imam, Saddam, Hajj, and Medina, as well as names that have “connotations of holy war [Jihad] or of splittism [sic – Xinjiang independence]” are included in the list….The new decree comes after Chinese authorities banned “abnormal” beards and veils in public places. Even China — known […]

China bans burqas and “abnormal beards” in predominantly Muslim province

Mar 31, 2017 9:03 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

China’s Xinjiang province, home to around 10 million Muslims, passed legislation Wednesday prohibiting forms of religious expression including wearing veils in public places and growing “abnormal” beards. Last year, “China’s top leadership….warned the Chinese people to shun the practise of Islam and to stick to China’s state policy of “Marxist Atheism.” China has long cracked […]

China: Muslim murders eight in knife attack in Xinjiang

Feb 16, 2017 1:41 am By Robert Spencer

This BBC article makes clear what happened, but only indirectly. The uninformed and hurried may read this account and have no idea that this was one more skirmish in a global war. “China knife attack: Eight dead in Xinjiang region,” BBC, February 15, 2017: Eight people are dead after a knife attack in China’s restive […]

China: Muslims drive car into government building and set off bomb, killing one person

Dec 28, 2016 2:47 pm By Robert Spencer

“The government has blamed the unrest on Islamist militants, though rights groups and exiles say anger at Chinese controls on the religion and culture of Uighurs is more to blame for the unrest.” Why, of course. What Islamic jihadists do is never their fault or responsibility, and never comes from imperatives in the Qur’an mandating […]

China: Muslim leader says beer festival “open provocation to the Islamic faith”

Jun 22, 2015 11:46 am By Robert Spencer

The Chinese government has reportedly implemented some extremely harsh measures to try to stop jihad terror activity. A beer festival in a Muslim area, however, is not one of them unless attendance was mandatory. Nonetheless, Dilxat Raxit calls the festival an “open provocation to the Islamic faith,” with the clear implication that non-Muslims should not […]

China: Islamic jihadists murder 15 in Xinjiang

Nov 29, 2014 1:10 pm By Robert Spencer

Notice how this AP report repeats the Uighur versions of events uncritically. They’re on the side of the jihadists, so they must be right — as far as the mainstream media is concerned. The mainstream media rejects in principle the idea that jihad against unbelievers is taught in the Qur’an and Sunnah, and so when […]
