Tens of thousands of Uyghurs have been exfiltrated through the Wakhan Corridor \u2013 the long valley constituting Afghanistan\u2019s east end that abuts Xin Jiang. Muslims, they have been sent to Afghanistan\u2019s madrassas, set up under the auspices of the CIA and run and financed by Saudi Arabia. The purpose is the creation radical Islamic \u201cshock troops\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Lawrence Wilkerson, a major United States geostrategy analyst and General Colin Powell\u2019s former chief of staff has reckoned their numbers in Syria to be some 10,000.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In the case of China, they are infiltrated back in to carry out terrorist attacks and generally destabilize China with a view to its dismemberment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Those inclined to dismiss this might consult the United States diplomatic cables from its embassy in Damascus, published by Wikileaks, drafted by one William Roebuck, who was planning the cultivation \u2013 and high-jacking \u2013 of popular discontent with a view to launching a civil war resulting in\u2026 Syria\u2019s dismemberment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The dismemberment of Yugoslavia, we now know, was carried out similarly. There are numerous other such examples.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The major player in what has come to be called \u201cregime change\u201d is the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), set up and funded by the United States Congress under Ronald Reagan. In a 1991 interview, the NED\u2019s president Allen Weinstein stated, \u00ab\u00a0A lot of what we do today was done covertly 25 years ago by the CIA.\u00a0\u00bb Nothing has changed since then \u2013 on the contrary, and the NED, originally under the CIA, is now under the National Security Agency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Notwithstanding its government funding, its website describes it as \u201ca private, non-profit foundation\u201d, each year giving some 2,000 grants \u201cto support the projects of non-governmental organizations abroad who are working for democratic goals in more than 100 countries\u201d. Among many other scholars, William I. Robinson of the University of California at Santa Barbara has tracked the NED\u2019s activities, in particular in his area of specialization, Latin America, and has been unrelenting in denouncing its abuses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In the case of China, the spearhead is the NED-backed World Uyghur Congress. Nonetheless, an organization backed by the leading security agency of a country boasting the ability of its satellites to read the print on a cigarette pack has yet to produce any satellite photographs credibly ascertaining the existence of the vast concentration camp network.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">That there might be re-education centers to make the captured radicalized Uyghurs eligible for what the Swiss call reinsertion into society never seems to occur to anybody. Nor does anybody mention what governments critical of China \u2013 especially the United States \u2013 do to persons merely suspected of engaging in what the these governments vaguely refers to as \u201csubversive activities\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The \u2013 rightly \u2013 famous Australian documentary film maker John Pilger, in a 2015 documentary, <em>The Coming War with China<\/em>, explores in detail the plans by the United States to do to China what it has done to Yugoslavia, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Congo Kinshasa and so many other countries. Pilger points out that the United States has set up around China a ring of some 400 military bases, heavily armed, including with nuclear weapons. China, despite its huge wealth, has no overseas military bases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Given that United States officials\u2019 repeated, public, statements claim China represents the greatest threat to world peace and security and that Cato the Elder\u2019s slightly modified exhortation (CHINA DELENDA EST \u2013\u00a0 China must be destroyed) seems to have become the guiding light of its China policy, perhaps China is justified in being apprehensive of these tens of thousands of radicalized Uyghors infiltrated into its national territory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RJP<\/p>\n<p>13 September 2022<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The publication by the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Michelle Bachelet, of a report on China The publication by the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Michelle Bachelet, of a report on China just minutes before the end of her term in office has \u2013 predictably \u2013 caused discontent in both China<br \/><a class=\"moretag\" href=\"https:\/\/12h71.com\/?p=6601\">+ Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5800,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[567,2078],"tags":[683,823,1557,3915,4134,4484,4681],"class_list":["post-6601","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-asie","category-geneva-international","tag-bachelet","tag-china","tag-muslims","tag-ned","tag-powell","tag-syria","tag-uyghors"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/12h71.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6601","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/12h71.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/12h71.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/12h71.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/12h71.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6601"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/12h71.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6601\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/12h71.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/12h71.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6601"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/12h71.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6601"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/12h71.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6601"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
