“The Known Unknown:
SNIPPET: “This was just posted to — where else? -—
http://www.archive.org/details/Jihad-in-Turkistan-Middle
It’s an old video, but the online jihadi who posted it to share amongst his forum friends probably did the unintended service of reminding us of the continuing jihad in Western China. Uighurs represent a sizable portion of the foreign jihadis picked up or killed in Pakistan and Afghanistan (there were numerous ones profiled in the jihadi hagiography, Martyrs in a Time of Alienation)
Regardless of how “well” things are going for the jihad in Western China, I think it’s safe to say that we have no idea how it’s going. The Communist Chinese government is never going to honestly report on it, and there are few, if any, independent journalists working the region.”

“Has al-Qaeda Picked a Leader for Operations in China?
Publication: Terrorism Focus Volume: 5 Issue: 41
December 3, 2008 01:16 PM Age: 80 days
By: Waliullah Rahmani
SNIPPET: “Since al-Qaeda and the Taliban leadership shifted their operational bases from Afghanistan to Pakistan’s North-West Frontier Province (NWFP), many new groups claiming to be linked to al-Qaeda have emerged. On November 16, a self-proclaimed al-Qaeda spokesman named Muhammad Uighuri claimed that Osama bin Laden has appointed a leader for a previously unknown organization called al-Qaeda in China. Uighuri said the new leader of al-Qaeda for China in general and for Xinjiang province in particular was a Chinese citizen named Abdul Haq Turkistani (Tabnak News Agency, November 16). Despite unsubstantiated claims by China’s security services and Foreign Ministry, there is little proof that al-Qaeda has ever engaged in active operations within China.
Uighuri added that Abdul Haq Turkistani was appointed by Osama bin Laden in person and was already based in Xinjiang province (Pajhwak News, November 16). Al-Qaeda spokesmen say that Abdul Haq Turkistani was also appointed to lead a group called Hizb-e Islami Turkistan (Turkistan Islamic Party -TIP) (Pajhwak Afghan News, November 16).
Though some claim TIP is another name for the East Turkistan Islamic Movement (ETIM), no evidence has been offered to support this claim. ETIM is a separatist Islamic radical organization that seeks to form an independent Islamic state in northwest China’s Xinjiang province.”

“Report on the Jihad in Northwest China”
SNIPPET: “The website www.eastrenturkistan.net (hosted by Yahoo! in California, USA) recently posted a short report on the jihad in “East Turkistan” (i.e. Xinjiang province in northwest China, which has a large Muslim population).
The report notes that this information is being posted in response to questions from Muslims from all over the world about the situation of the jihad in that region. It further says that the jihad in East Turkistan is at a stage that requires discretion, and therefore the report includes only information already reported by the international media.”

Good to see that no matter how bad the global economy is that al Qaeda is willing to throw a start-up out there and hope for the best. They probably could get a grant from Comrade Obamsky’s never-ending rescue and recovery flow of freshly printed if soon-to-be-worthless money.

Thank you Jet Jaguar.
I doubt the veracity of this organization’s existence. China is in active connivance with the Islamists. It was less than 2 days ago that the CCP signed an agreeement with Jamaat-e-Islami of Pakistan. While there have been Uighur members who trained in Al-Qaeda camps in Afghanistan, the Uighur are fundamentally very progressive compared to the Al-Qaeda ideologues.
I see this as China’s attempt at equating the Uighur freedom movement with terrorism.
Thank you for your feedback MimirsWell.

SNIPPET: “Speaking of al-Medad, among all the sites that benefited from the disappearance of the so-called top tier sites last fall, al-Medad is the biggest surprise. For a year or more al-Medad had been largely dormant, but then, after The Incident™, the forum once again became very active.
Curious, that is.”

“The Uighurs and the ‘Torture’ Memos”
by Jed Babbin
04/20/2009
SNIPPET: “White House lawyers are refusing to accept the findings of an inter-agency committee that the Uighur Chinese Muslims held at Guantanamo Bay are too dangerous to release inside the U.S., according to Pentagon sources familiar with the action.
This action — coupled with the release of previously top secret legal opinions on harsh interrogation methods — demonstrates the Obama administration’s willingness to ignore reality.
President Obama’s decision to close the terrorist detention facility (known as “Gitmo” to the military) was made despite Bush administration determinations that there were no realistic alternatives to it.”

“BREAKING: White House Overrides FBI and DHS on Gitmo Release”
by Jed Babbin
04/30/2009
SNIPPET: “Moving quickly to release Chinese Uighur terrorists into the United States, Obama administration officials have — for the second time — overridden objections of federal agencies responsible for national security.
The first time — as I reported on April 20 — the White House overrode the inter-agency panel it created from all the national security agencies to review all the cases of the Guantanamo Bay prisoners. That panel found that the seventeen Uighurs — members of the East Turkestan Islamic Movement captured at an al-Queda training camp in Pakistan — were too dangerous to release in the United States.
Now — according to a federal agency source who requested anonymity — the White House has also overridden opposition to the release from both the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security.”
