The Iranian President Mohammad Khatami has said Tehran wants to expand ties with China's mainly Muslim province of Xinjiang.
Mr Khatami, currently on a five-day visit to China, was speaking during talks with the provincial governor, Ebent Abd al-Rashid, in the Xinjiang capital Urumqi.
The province, home to half of China's 20 million Muslims, is a hotbed of religiously-inspired separatism.
Mr Khatami arrived in Urumqi just 10 days after five Muslim militants were executed there for separatist crimes.
According to at least one outside source, Beijing has "decimated Uighur culture."
In traditional Uyghur cities like Kashgar, a vibrant bazaar town on the border of Central Asia, the authorities tore down Uyghur stalls across the central square, where Muslim men once gathered for open-air shaves before heading to the central mosque. The local government replaced them with a bland plaza patrolled by Chinese troops. In another unpopular move, Beijing offered financial incentives for ethnic Chinese migrants to come to the province and set up businesses. Now, ethnic [Han] Chinese dominate nearly all big businesses in the region.[19]

About a month ago, I made a "prediction thread" about this happening...(it got moved to BTS though).
I wonder though, who do we think is funding these MILITANT terrorists?

I would think kicking out the Iraqi Olympic hopefuls would be more than enough reason for the whole Muslim world to be upset with China. Say what you want I am betting that those Olympics do not happen.

These bloody fundamentalists, trying to ruin everybody's enjoyment.
Who exactly made these miserable bastards hate the olympics in the first place? How on earth can you put a jihad on a sport?
Surely they've taken the 'fun' from fundamentalism.
