This is not the first time such a ban has been imposed, but this year tensions are extra high because of recent attacks in the area carried out by Muslim extremists.

With China’s leading role in world power-politics gradually mounting, decisions by the leaders of the giant country are of increasing interest to the rest of the world. China is the most populous country in the world and the 3rd largest in size. …

Okay China, you have really done it now. You have slandered and disrespected the profit Muhammad by denying him his due respect from your people. The muslims will be coming to keel you by offing your heads.

You mean the Chinese Communists who “draw the line” against any “agitation”.

There are plenty of Uighurs and Hui party members.

Chinese don’t allow any immigration.

The only reason these Uighurs are part of China is because China took over their country, East Turkestan after the Communists took over.

Whatever the reason, the Chinese will make sure that cooperation with Al-Q/IS stays external only.

And because China is Communist, the otherwise moslem-loving mainstream media won’t make a peep of protest.

No; it wants to dominate. Sometimes the two look alike.

Al Qaeda and IS are Chinese Communist allies.

Since just about every jihadi organization has expressed its support for Uigurs and other Muslims in China, that's very unlikely. Furthermore, Iran is to some extent a Chinese client, and Al Quaeda/Isis hate Shiites even more than they hate non-Muslims.

Load paintball guns with skittles. Shoot everyone in the mouth.

Make as much sense as a ban on daytime fasting.
