Xinijang. Exiled Leader - Rebiya Kadeer,
Police and other security forces in China are trying to maintain peace in northwestern Xinjiang province following an outbreak earlier this month of some of the worst ethnic violence in the country in decades. Chinese authorities blame exiled Uighurs for fomenting the unrest, in particular an exiled Uighur political activist who now lives in the Washington, DC area. VOA's Chris Simkins has this profile of Rebiya Kadeer, who has gained new prominence in the wake of the disturbances. more >>
We are NOT Uighurs - when Chinese were beating MUSLIMS.
The early July riots in Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang province in China's Far West, opposing turcophone Uighurs and Han Chinese, have been spun by Beijing as yet another "foreign interference" conspiracy organized by the Uighur diaspora in exile.
Pepe Escobar argues it's more complicated than that. All the trouble stems from the official Chinese policy of population transfer - enticing millions of Han Chinese to move to the Far West where they find limitless opportunities not available to the local population. And then there's the key strategic importance of Xinjiang province - immensely rich in natural resources.
China's spin plus heavy handed repression has been met by thundering silence all across the "international community". What a difference from the recent turmoil in Iran. more >>

Native American Genocide and the New World Order - a viewpoint..
"I am a red man.If the Great Spirit had
desired me to be a white man
he would have made me so in the first place.
He put in your heart certain wishes & plans,
in my heart he put other & different desires.
Each man is good in his sight.
It is not necessary for Eagles to be Crows.
We are poor . . . but we are free.
No white man controls our footsteps.
If we must die we die defending our rights."
CHIEF SITTING BULL (1831? to 1890)
