Targeting who? Chinese?
Why not? Look at what those Muslims did with the mass stabbing.
Uyghur muslims targeting China.
Could be. I don't remember which province it was, but IIRC south China had a burgeoning myslim population that made demands of establishing a sharia "state" within China a few years ago. The Chinese military put them down pretty hard, so this could be a muslim terror attack in retaliation.
Doubt we'll ever know the truth since the Chinese have a long history of brutally squashing dissidents and covering up their disappearances. No reason to think they wouldn't do the same here.
Targeting the global media to demonstrate that they can still bring down planes in order to fill hand-wringers everywhere with "terror."
Did you miss the multiple casualty uyghur train platform knife attack last week?
