China bans burqa in biggest Muslim city
CNN ^ | Jan 13 2015 | Steven Jiang

Legislators in China's far-western Xinjiang province have passed a law to prohibit residents from wearing burqas in public, state media reported, in a continued campaign against what authorities view as religious extremism. The new ban in Urumqi was approved by local legislators last month, and given the greenlight by the regional legislature at the weekend. The ordinance name suggests it targets outer garments covering someone's full body including the face, which is called a burqa in some Islamic traditions.

File this under “strange bedfellows”, because I like it.

I approve of the ban.

Chinese are a civilized people. The symbols of Islamic barbarism should be outlawed.

Its been long overdue.

Their government is not civilized.

The fact that they have a “Muslim City” should be disconcerting

China fully understands the huge differences between their civilization and Islam.

Its why China has been around for 5000 years.

The Bible calls for the final war to see “wave after wave” of millions of men marching to battle.

There is no army capable of sending millions of men in waves except China.

I think it will involve china when they have had enough of muzzie crapola and decide to rid the planet of them, and pick up a few of the gorgeous Persian women while they are at it.

They have a shortage of women- another reason I suspect this will happen. You can’t have that many unattached men sitting around with no girls...

There were millions upon millions in WW2 on all sides. When the economy crashes and there are no jobs and no welfare, there will be hundreds of millions available for fighting

The Mummies Of Urumchi

In the museums of Ürümchi, the windswept regional capital of the Uyghur Autonomous Region (also known as Chinese Turkestan), a collection of ancient mummies lies at the center of an enormous mystery.

Some of Ürümchi's mummies date back as far as 4,000 years—contemporary with the famous Egyptian mummies but even more beautifully preserved. Surprisingly, these prehistoric people are not Asian but Caucasoid—tall, large-nosed and blond with thick beards and round eyes. What were these blond Caucasians doing in the heart of Asia? What language did they speak? Might they be related to a "lost tribe" known from later inscriptions? Few clues are offered by their pottery or tools, but their clothes—woolens that rarely survive more than a few centuries—have been preserved as brightly hued.

Tocharians

The Han Chinese were not even in the region until about 200AD. As late as 1300AD, there were still Caucasian only cemetaries being used.

“You can’t have that many unattached men sitting around with no girls...”

The Islamic world has managed to get by with boys, other men, and livestock. This has been going on at least 1,000 years.
