You guys probably didn’t see this officer involved shooting in Virginia a few months ago.

China has created a dystopian hellscape in Xinjiang, Amnesty report says

In a new report, Amnesty International says China is committing crimes against humanity in Xinjiang.

Xi Jinping and his clique are committing genocide in Xinjiang.

The human rights organisation Amnesty International has said China is committing crimes against humanity in Xinjiang, the north-western region that is home to the Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities.

In a report published on Thursday, Amnesty called on the UN to investigate, saying China had subjected Uyghurs, Kazakhs, and other Muslims to mass detention, surveillance, and torture.

Amnesty International’s full report can be read here. (pdf) A summary is linked below.

China: Draconian repression of Muslims in Xinjiang amounts to crimes against humanity

The sheer scale of this attack on the Uyghur people and their culture by the Chinese Communist Party leadership in Beijing is unparalleled in the 21st century.

In addition to the Amnesty report there’s a recent article in the journal Foreign Policy by Adrian Zenz and Erin Rosenberg.

Beijing Plans a Slow Genocide in Xinjiang

Basically, the régime in Beijing wants to reduce the percentage of the Uyghur population in Xinjiang through forced sterilizations, long periods of imprisonment, family separation, and compulsory assimilation. It is also trying to dilute the Uyghur population by intentionally bringing millions of ethnic Han Chinese settlers into Xinjiang – making the Uyghurs a minority in their own land.

Chinese researchers have argued the “foundation for solving Xinjiang’s counterterrorism” is “to solve the human problem.” Specifically, this requires “diluting … the proportion of ethnic populations” by increasing the Han population share and reducing the shares of populations with “negative energy,” such as religious and traditionally minded Uyghurs. This process of targeted ethnic dilution, first proposed by Xi during his visit to Xinjiang in 2014, is referred to as “population embedding.” A consistent theme in the discourse around this “human problem” is the eugenics-based concept of “population quality” (or “renkou suzhi”), a long-standing concept in Chinese Communist Party thought where Uyghurs are considered to be inherently “low quality” as a minority ethnic group.

To boost Han population shares, Beijing has to induce millions of Han to move to southern Xinjiang. By 2022, it plans to settle 300,000 Han people there. However, the south is also Xinjiang’s most ecologically fragile region. 

The Chinese Communist leadership is using chillingly Orwellian language to describe its “slow genocide” in Xinjiang.

Dr. Zenz in a paper (available here), soon to appear in Central Asian Survey, refers to some of these Orwellian gems from the architects of the genocide against the Uyghurs.

zero birth control violation incidents – wéifǎ shēngyù líng fāshēng – 违法生育零发生

optimizing the ethnic population structure – yōuhuà mínzú rénkǒu jiégòu – 优化民族人口结构 

population embedding – rénkǒu qiànrù – 人口嵌入

change the population structure and layout, [and] end the dominance of the Uyghur ethnic group – gǎibiàn rénkǒu jiégòu bùjú jiéshù wéiwú'ěr zú yīzú dú dà de júmiàn – 改变人口结构布局, 结束维吾尔族一族独大的局面

Those have more sinister meanings than their actual wording implies. Before the 1940s, “final solution” was also a rather innocent expression.

The sad part is that most Muslim majority countries have remained silent about the persecution and genocide of their co-religionists in Xinjiang. China is using its economic influence to silence them. It’s largely Muslims in Western countries who have spoken out on behalf of endangered Uyghur Muslims.

US Muslim groups accuse OIC of abetting China’s Uighur ‘genocide’

So we’re in an unusual situation where the US government is defending the rights of Muslims while the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is implicitly praising China for its treatment of Uyghur Muslims in concentration camps.

[T]he group headquartered in Saudi Arabia has not voiced alarm over China’s western region of Xinjiang, where rights groups say that more than a million Uighurs and other Turkic-speaking Muslims are being held in camps as part of an effort to stamp out Islamic customs and forcibly integrate the community.

In a March 2019 resolution, the OIC said it “commends the efforts of the People’s Republic of China in providing care to its Muslim citizens” after a delegation visited.

Making excuses for genocide does not stop it. Crimes against humanity cannot be an issue one can equivocate on.
