I knew that there was another terrorist attack in Xinjiang, China and more
than twenty people were killed. Before I had time to read the details, I came
across the BBC's report and analysis.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-22276042
Then I had to go to places to find what really happened. Here is an account
of the event from Australia's ABC network http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-04-24/21-people-killed-after-unrest-in-xinjiang/4650024.
Certainly the ultimate source is from Chinese Media
The conflict
started when government officials noticed a group of ethnic Uighurs carrying
knives.
After reporting the
group to police, they are said to have been taken hostage.
Police, along with
other government functionaries then arrived at the house close to the city of
Kashgar.
Details of what
happened next are unclear but there was a violent clash in which more local
Uighurs joined in and opposed the police.
Fifteen of those
killed were either police or social workers and six were members of China's
Uighur ethnic minority.
Eight people were
arrested. A provincial government official said these people were Uighurs but
did not confirm their identity.
It is well known that Chinese policemen are normally not armed. According to
Xinhua, when they came, they were surrounded by terrorists with machetes, then
they had to retreat to a room. Molotov cocktails were served from the
terrorists. Policemen and social workers were burned to death or hacked to
death by machetes.
BBC's report did not detail the event as it happened. It tried to appear
neutral, Chinese spokesperson said this but the spokesperson for the world
Uighur congress, told BBC that the incident was caused by the killing of a young
Uighur by Chinese armed personnel as a result of a government cleanup
campaign.
But for people like me, things are so clear as crystals. Some Uighur Muslims
simply wants to kill ethnic Chinese. Simple as that. (as the terrorists bombed
the Boston Marathon simply because they want to kill; They likely would cite
some remote reasons, such as US imperialism in middle east etc, the same as the
Uighur Muslims would resort to Chinese government oppression as the excuse). As
a minority in China, Uighur Muslims have many more special treatments, economic
and political, than most other citizens but the thirst for more could never be
quenched.
The tone appears neutral. 「 Riots
between Uighurs and members of China』s Han ethnic majority in Xinjiang』s capital
Urumqi in 2009 killed around 200 people, leading the ruling Communist Party to
tighten surveillance and boost investment in the region. The 200
Han victims were not armed and they were hacked to death by sticks or machetes.
BBC calls it a RIOT. I need to search the literature and verify whether BBC
said "there was a riot between Jews and Hitler's government that resulted a
couple million death".
The comment and analysis reminds me of BBC's interview of the mother of the
suspects of Boston Bombing. She appeared to be so sentimental. They are my
babies, I knew them inside and out; good babies, perfect babies. Everyday, they
would call me and brief me about what's happening. they would say mommy this
mommy that.
So much for the innocence. Had I not been flooded by the domestic news
coverage from east coast to west coast on the Bombing, I could have been lead by
BBC's depiction: good babies were likely framed by the US law enforcement.
What upsets me more is that the suspects were on welfare. That is, they were
using our tax dollars for their life and for the bombs that killed three
innocent persons. Talking about ungrateful people, I don't know how more
ungrateful anybody can be.
I wish that UK take all of the begrudging Muslims around the world. May
Allah bless his people in UK.
