Nikki Haley blasts China, calls government 'straight out of George Orwell'
Fox News ^ | 10/15/18 | Lucas Tomlinson

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley accused China of persecuting religious and ethnic minorities on a massive scale Monday in her first public remarks since announcing she would leave office last week.

"It is the largest internment of civilians in the world today," Haley said in keynote remarks at the Chiefs of Defense Conference Dinner in Washington. "It may be the largest since World War II."

The former South Carolina governor was particularly critical of Beijing's crackdown on Uighur and other Muslim minorities in China's northwest, which she described as being "straight out of George Orwell."

Don’t anyone here get the idea of spreading division within the D party coalition, that would be bad and it is not who we are. And I have a 5000 word essay coming out soon in NR explaining what it all really means.

I’m Chinese American and trump supporter and like Haley. But I have to say on this one China did it right. When dealing with Muslim, communists know the trick. It doesn’t give me any pleassue saying so. In preserving a nation, whatever takes. Throughout Chinese thousands years history no religion dominate national stage. That is unique phenomenon of China. Some western historians argue that it is the cause of China civilization lasting without interruption like others. Nevertheless if a religion has to, I would prefer China become Christian country

Evidently government is your religion, and you’re not bright enough to realize it.

Cracking down on Muslims is ok by me. Haley is virtue sigmaling here.

Muslims are a threat to any nation. China should deport all of them to Somalia.

I’m glad you posted this. I agree. I don’t think we really know the threat China faces from Islamic extremism. And we can’t necessarily believe the reports from so-called “innocent Muslim victims.”

Thanks for that link. It’s hard to get the truth here. Who is a bigger liar, a Commie or a Muzzy?
