Well, the USA has gotten nowhere.. Let China have a go.

China has an advantage, it isn't the beacon for freedom and human rights. It can get results, as long as the western media doesn't dig too deep into the mass graves that appear.

this might be true but how much will it consume before it does? In the 10 years it could take, a lot of land could become wasteland,er mass grave yard, there's a lot of sand to be filled.

It is worthy of it here.

China's War on Terror

(0 votes, average 0 out of 5)
By Ben Blanchard
Reuters- Urumqi, China
Sunday, 25 September 2011 10:10
China has exerted considerable diplomatic pressure on Asian countries where Uighurs have claimed asylum.

The back alleys and packed mosques of the remote far western Chinese city of Urumqi are one of the more obscure front lines in the U.S.-backed war on terror, launched after the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington. Streets crawl with baton-wielding riot police and heavily armed SWAT teams brought in for a trade fair in a tense reminder that China considers the region fertile ground for terrorism and Islamic radicalism, a claim many scoff at.

Ten years ago, China used the 9/11 attacks to justify getting tough with what it said were al Qaeda-backed extremists who wanted to bring similar carnage to Xinjiang, a heavily Muslim region with close cultural links to Central Asia.

A sweeping crackdown on Uighurs (pronounced "Wee-gur") - the Turkic-speaking people who call Xinjiang home, followed.

China has used a carrot and stick approach, going after Uighurs it suspects of harboring separatist views, but also pumping in billions of dollars to boost development and lessen the appeal of the militants.
yes i do know it is not a China news link but it is on China, think what would happen if they got their hands on Iraq or Afghanistan, Iran would not be.

They are basing that statement on any land that china had control over in the entire history of china, no mater how long ago it was, or how many years before ww2 it was.

They had control over the area 150 year before ww2. So they think the declaration that Japan turn back any Chinese land after ww2 applies to that land too. The declaration was in reference to any land Japan got via ww2.

They are intentionally taking the declaration out of context.

I don't see how you got to the conclusion that China is going to start sending its military into the Middle East. It is simply trying to improve its international image using diplomacy and exercise more influence in a region vital to its interests in a peaceful manner.

The US has failed to objectively mediate, maybe it is time to let someone else finally get involved?
