China Unrest Escalating

It’s nearing a small rebellion

New protests have flared in Urumqi, two days after 156 people died and 800 were injured in the western Chinese city.

At least 200 Uighurs faced off against police in Urumqi on Tuesday following news that 1,434 people were arrested in connection with Sunday’s riots.

Trouble also spread outside of Urumqi, capital of Xinjiang, with protests on Monday near a mosque in Kashgar.

  1. Aren’t these the same people Barry O put down in some Carribean resort?  If this is an uprising, we will see the heavy hand of the Chinese govt. come down on them.  They don’t want no stinkin Muslims telling them what to do.
