Syria: Chinese Uyghurs Killing Russian Spies According to Turkey's Plan

It's a Zionist conspiracy, of course

Charles Paul Freund | October 3, 2015

So while enormous numbers of Syrian refugees are attempting to get out of the Middle East and into Europe, what is happening in the empty villages they have left behind? According to Al Mayadeen, a Beirut-based satellite news service, at least some of the abandoned villages in northern Syria are filling up with the families of Muslim Chinese Uyghurs. These Uyghurs, claims the report, are entering the country along with their wives and children to fight alongside the Al Nusra Front and ISIS against the Assad regime.

Al Mayadeen reported in September that after a successful raid on Jisr Al-Shughur, a city of some 50,000 people near Aleppo, "this Syrian city looks more like China than Damascus. Thousands of Chinese Turkestani families were resettled in the area. Especially in the village of Zanbaq." (Translation by MEMRI.)

Let's pause to review the players. Uyghurs are actually a Turkic people, millions of whom live in western China. Though some Uyghurs look like Europeans, a lot of them have Asian features. They have sometimes been in conflict with the Chinese state; there were serious problems in China's Uyghur-majority regions in 2008 and riots in 2009.

Sure, I'm sure that they have absolutely no trouble exiting China (border controls) and travelling the thousands of miles to Syria (without attracting the attention of customs and immigration officials of the various intervening territories). There are sure to be plenty of rest stations along they way, where they can stock up on disposable diapers, tampons, food, and drink.

Apparently, Uyghurs have been migrating out of their homeland for a long time:

Yes, but the article implies that these are not merely ethnic Chinese, but actual residents / nationals of China, coming from China.

I don't see anything in the article indicating that they are currently nationals of China. If you see the second link I provided, many left China by emigrating in recent years. China apparently did not stop them from leaving, even the entire families. The article just says Chinese Uyghurs, which could just mean that they are from China, and they identify themselves as Chinese Uyghurs. The adjective “Chinese” does not necessarily mean that they are currently of Chinese nationality. There are some recent exiles from China in Turkey. They are escaping from Chinese authorities. The recent bombing of Erwan Shrine in Thailand is said to be the work of Chinese Uyghurs who were angry at the Thai authorities for deporting Uyghurs back to China, who escaped China to Thailand and sought by Chinese authorities.

Those who don’t want to live in an ISIS caliphate leave, not so new Muslims migrate to join the caliphate. And the caliphate grows stronger. None of these migrants leaving Syria will be returning home. And in a modern civilized Europe, they won’t assimilate. Satan has a lot riding in the kingdom of the caliphate.

"So while enormous numbers of Syrian refugees are attempting to get out of the Middle East and into Europe"

So this "story" starts out with total BS, according to the non-government co trolled European media only about 1 out of 8 are Syrian the other members of this HIJRA are of unknown origin due to counterfeit passports and the lack of westerner knowledge of islamic languages.

China repatriating its Muslim problem

[nuconvert]

I’m sure China is hoping their Uyghurs make the journey west

[NonValueAdded]

Ah, that explains why the Chinese are moving assets to the area and purportedly teaming with Assad and the Russians.

[alexander_busek]

I don't see anything in the article indicating that they are currently nationals of China.

I said only that the article implied that they were not merely ethnic Chinese, but actual (former) residents and/or nationals of China.

I mean, wouldn't you assume that American citizens were meant in a press release referring to "American Jews?" Wouldn't you assume that Scotsmen were meant in an article referring to "Episcopalian Scotsmen?"

Obviously, they get a lot more clicks (or sell more newspapers, or something) if they make it sound like Chinamen fresh off the boat are "invading" Syria.

This is an interesting twist.
