Perhaps China is moving troops to the border to prevent an influx of Muslim refugees. Perhaps they are there to offer support to the Taliban. Either way, they prevent expansion of their own Muslim problem by denying refugees and by keeping their Muslims at the ready to help their brothers. I don't think China is anxious to pursue another Korea/Viet Nam scenario in a harsh and remote land, especially for the sake of a people that they can barely tolerate.

Ditto, The ChiComs are doing what we should have years years ago...securing their border. They probably just want to make sure that none of the muslin(mispelled out of disrepect) problems spread to some of their provinces.

BTW, for any of those diaper heads planning to protest..I'll respect your first amendment right to free speech if you'll respect my 2nd amendment rights.

I am inclined to agree. I knew this article sounded hokey. I am glad to see my instincts reinforced by good folks like you here on FR. I had no reservations about going to China, and when I saw this article early this morning, I just felt it was so much BS. I'm gonna keep a low profile as usual, though. No wild parties, etc. ;-)

Thanks for your post!
