I think Jihadi terror cells now have foothold up there. Chicom always smeared as terrorists any Uighurs opposing their rule. Now it seems that they finally have real terrorists. Years of their hard work on stoking Jihadi flames against U.S. is now turning into a blowback. Hope they enjoy it.
The main difference, however, is that the the chicoms will kill them all instead if inviting them to build mosques in major cities with taxpayer support.
