As a refugee who have run from the hell, I fell pity for these Uighurs. But there are 5 to 6 millions of them in China, 100 to 200 millions muslims in China , why only 23 are feeling unsafe to run out of China ? Do they have play any role in the riot in Xinkiang to feel insecure to stay at home. Did they kill people to have fear to be punished by China ?
