[@eternalapostate4243]

Uighurs were originally from further north in central Asia, closer to China's northern border. They migrated to China's northwest Xingjiang in the 9th century and became Muslims in the 10th century. They always made troubles for China in the border region. On the other hand, the other Muslim ethnic group, Hui, originally from Middle East around 7th century, is well assimilated in China. Some Uighurs wants to make the Chinese region Xingjiang an independent Islamic state. The East Turkistan Islamic Movement group has been active at least since 1930's. In the past decade, their tatics have turned violent. Their members had been trained by Al-qaeda and detained at Guantanamo. It's incorrect to say Uighurs are under religious persecution. It's more accurate to say their liberty is affected by the social unrest and by the fight against extremism.

[@morugascorpion6021]

what exactly is the purpose of this video? It doesn't provide any constructive advice on how to improve the relation between the Han and Uighurs, nor does it promote harmony and peace in the region. It completely dismissed the fact that most of the victims during the "protest" was of Han ethnicity, and it was a clear reflection of the hatred SOME Uighurs have towards the Han Chinese. I have been to Xinjiang quite a few times, I have experienced both the friendliness and hostility at times. It is understandable that there is local resistance and dissatisfaction with the Han migration and the lifestyle changes, but it gives people no excuse to cause trouble and start killing innocents. Maybe you should spend a bit more time condemning such behaviour and less time trying to find excuses for terrorists. It is difficult enough for both the Han and Uighur people to integrate due to the cultural and language barrier, and you coming here with your bigotry, pretending to care about the locals, when the truth is that you don't know FUCK ALL about the situation and not trying to do any good. Excuse my language there, but I often find the constant China bashing in the western media frustrating. China too is suffering from religious radical extremism, and Xinjiang is the frontline of this battle. No government shall show any mercy when it comes to terrorism, and everyone should condemn terrorists, not sympathise with them, a question like "are there a lot of separatists sympathisers in the old town?" is absolutely misleading and ridiculous. This video seems more like an anti-Chinese government propaganda, rather than a fair documentary. History has proven that muslims and non-muslims can live peacefully within each other in China, and we are living in the modern era right now, with all the knowledge we have, I am sure we will find a permanent solution to this issue, we do not need you to instigate an already volatile situation !!!!!!

[@JeanAlesiagain3]

The Chinese gestapo kills inocent Uyghurs every day... Not to mention the fact that their religion is being forbidden.. Your comment was made without having the big picture in mind. Of course it is absolutely wrong for them to kill inocent chinese... However, the Uyghur are not Chinese, and China is doing to Uyghurstan the same thing Israel is doing to the Palestinians, or the Americans did to many of the Native American nations. The worst, to boot, is that whenever a Chinese kills an Uyghur (or commits any crime for the matter), they don't always go to prison. I'm sure the Uyghur would rather live peacefully even under Chinese rule, weren't the Chinese so racist. Now, let's be honest... Most Chinese see non-chinese as sub-human or even animals. Most do not ascribe them any sort of dignity.. Even the words used for non chinese in the chinese language denote an undignifying difference... It is hard to deny this.... So, just think... If the Japanese had won WW2, and the treated you like the Chinese treat the Uyghur, and if you lived in downtown Shanghai, you were in Japanese territory.. Wouldn't you feel the same?

Another solution, would be to have the Chinese leave the city of the Uighurs, so they can keep living in their traditional homes. If Chinese would really want to help, then, help rebuild these traditional homes. China has experienced earthquakes, as well as other countries, and somehow, traditional homes are rebuilt. If a high rise building is affected by an earthquake, because of lack of building codes, more people will die, just in one fall.

Nobody likes change but Cultural values can preserved even after they modernize the region. You can follow the religion equally by having electricity. People should not fear modernization as a threat to their moral values for their next generation. Sooner or later human beings evolve. If the people see Chinese government intervention as a threat then probably Chinese government may not be approaching this situation the right way. They need to take the locals into confidence.

[@shirleywang8994]

The Chinese government shoud treat everyone 100% equally, Uighur and Han, and other minorities. We should support minorities financially and educationally, but no more political preferential treatment. We have to push minorites to learn Chinese and get better education, beside they learn their mother tongue. As I know lots of Uighur don't speak Mandarin. Even Canandian and British try to teach their kids Chinese nowadays. How could minorities have a advanced life in China without speaking Chinese? Language barrier stop people getting better education. It is ture all over the world. I wanted to have better education so I learnt English and German. Learning Chinese as a Chinese citizen in China benefit themsleves. BTW, as Chinese government is quite rich. We should invest more money in education.

Uighurs perceive Chinese as inferior nation. Uighurs never ever sit at the same table with Chinese. Uighurs never ever were friends with Chinese. Chinese eat all what is moving. Chinese culture is alien to Uighurs. Chinese way of speaking, eating, a d living is not acceptable to Uighurs. Today Chinese force Uighurs be Chinese. Its forbidden to speak Uighur language and culture, be Uighur and eat Uighur food,give Uighur names. This is crime and not fighting terrorism. Chinese afraid of secession and independence of Uighurs. The war against Uighurs is about Uighur land and has nothing to do with Islam.

Honestly, I've lived in China for almost 20 years... demolishing old buildings and moving people into new building projects is happening all over China and is not specifically targeted at any ethnicity. If you go to the capital Beijing, you'll find that the exact same thing happened to the Hutongs there. They restore some old living quarters for cultural and historical value, and as tourist attractions, but most have been torn down and people have been moved to apartment blocks. For me this is why I don't trust western media reporting on China, it's always biased and lacks context.

Xingjiang has been part of China as far back as Han dynasty very much longer than the Colonists occupying America. If the native Indians want to fight for their land back does the news media call them separatists with legitimate complaint? When the small Uighur group carried out attacks on Hans, Hui moslems , and Mongolians indiscriminately in the market place the Chinese government being not as sophisticated as the USA made a mistake for not calling them correctly as “ISLAMIC TERRORISTS”. If they had done so then America and China are on the same side fighting the same common enemy. How ironical is it! Prez Trump was right one must call these people what they are. “ISLAMIC TERRORISTS”

[@ericjosephgarand8585]

I am watching this video precisely five years after the 2009 Urumqi riots, and clearly things in Xinjiang have not improved since. If the Chinese government is so concerned about Islamic terrorists harming China, their best course of action is to leave the Uyghers alone. Give the Uyghurs real autonomy over the land they have lived in for the past 2000 years, the same land that has known peace & prosperity among the natives before the Qing dynasty intruded upon it. In spite of Beijing's intentions, I wish the Uyghurs in & out of Xinjiang a safe & festive Ramadan! =D

[@SareMaire]

are you kidding me? Chinese han people has lived in XinJiang for more more than 600 years. Urumqi is just one of the nations living there, which does not mean that XinJiang is theirs. By the way, there is no way that XinJiang is a peaceful place over the history. You know what? The Uyghurs used to believe Buddhism. Then came the Arab, who forced them to turn to Islam with violence!! All these problems are because of Islam. If you can not see this, that is too pathetic.

Some of the investigations were pretty laughable. Several journalists were arrested on suspicion of handling a stolen mobile phone because phones belonging to politicians were handed into The Sun. Two of those never even saw the phone in question. All of those 67 have paid a heavy price. In the early days those arrested had maybe ten officers arrive on their doorstep at 6am, homes searched whilst terrified families looked on, several hours being interviewed in the cells and then years spent reporting for police bail. At The Sun a whole generation of senior journalists have left the paper after being arrested, charged, suspended and finally cleared. Some cleared journalists have had their health, relationships and careers ruined.
