2014′s horrific terror attack at China’s Kunming railroad station left 29
victims dead and over 100 wounded. The terrorist attack was the work of
Uyghur separatists hailing from Western China’s Xinjiang province. The US
would only condemn the attack as an act of terror after China accused
Washington of applying double standards to its coverage and stance on the
incident.
However, the US’ failure to initially condemn the attack as terrorism runs
deeper than mere superficial double standards applied to a global competitor
. The US is in fact driving the separatist movement in Xinjiang, encouraging
violence and creating faux-human rights organizations to then condemn the
predictable response of Chinese security forces.
Indeed, first and foremost in backing the Xinjiang Uyghur separatists is the
United States through the US State Department’s National Endowment for
Democracy (NED). For China, the Western region referred to as “Xinjiang/
East Turkistan” has its own webpage on NED’s site covering the various
fronts funded by the US which include:
International Uyghur Human Rights and Democracy Foundation$187,918
To advance the human rights of ethnic Uyghur women and children. The
Foundation will maintain an English- and Uyghur-language website and
advocate on the human rights situation of Uyghur women and children.
International Uyghur PEN Club$45,000
To promote freedom of expression for Uyghurs. The International Uyghur PEN
Club will maintain a website providing information about banned writings and
the work and status of persecuted poets, historians, journalists, and
others. Uyghur PEN will also conduct international advocacy campaigns on
behalf of imprisoned writers.
Uyghur American Association$280,000
To raise awareness of Uyghur human rights issues. UAA’s Uyghur Human Rights
Project will research, document, and bring to international attention,
independent and accurate information about human rights violations affecting
the Turkic populations of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.
World Uyghur Congress$185,000
To enhance the ability of Uyghur prodemocracy groups and leaders to
implement effective human rights and democracy campaigns. The World Uyghur
Congress will organize a conference for pro-democracy Uyghur groups and
leaders on interethnic issues and conduct advocacy work on Uyghur human
rights.
All of these NED-funded organizations openly advocate separatism from China,
not even recognizing China’s authority over the region to begin with –
referring to it instead as “Chinese occupation.”
Of the recent terror attack, the US-funded World Uyghur Congress would even
attempt to justify it by claiming Chinese authorities have left the
separatists with little other choice. The US State Department’s “Radio
Free Asia” report titled, “China’s Kunming Train Station Violence Leaves
33 Dead,” reported:
World Uyghur Congress spokesman Dilxat Raxit said in an emailed statement
that there was “no justification for attacks on civilians” but added that
discriminatory and repressive policies provoked “extreme measures” in
response.
Just as the US has done in other nations it is fomenting political chaos and
armed violence in such as Syria, it is attempting to steer clear of
labeling the Xinjiang separatists as “terrorists” for as long as possible
in order to sow the maximum amount of chaos at the cost of Chinese political
stability.
