Oh yeah, that'll work.
Hey, Al Qaeda, the Chinese are not far from you. Their army could
almost overrun Afghanistan, ALONE. Forget about them needing a
coalition. World opinion? China doesn't seem to care most of the time.
I don't think that this is very smart.

"There
is no virtue in compulsory government charity, and
there is no virtue in advocating it. A politician who portrays himself
as
"caring" and "sensitive" because he wants to expand the
government's charitable programs is merely saying that he's willing to
try to
do good with other people's money. Well, who isn't? And a voter who
takes pride
in supporting such programs is telling us that he'll do good with his
own money
-- if a gun is held to his head."--P.

"Al-Qaeda calls for holy war against
China"
("EarthTimes", October 7, 2009)
Cairo, Egypt - A senior al-Qaeda leader in a video distributed
Wednesday urged Muslims to launch a holy war against Chinese "invaders"
in response to the "massacre" of Uighurs in western China. "The atheist
criminals have long used the most despicable, cruel and brutal means
against Muslims in Turkistan," said Abu Yayha al- Libi, who is
sometimes identified as the commander in Afghanistan of the
international terrorist network al-Qaeda.
"Thousands of Muslims were killed, and no one knows about them," he
said in the 20-minute video, referring to Uighurs living in China.
Muslims with historical and linguistic ties to the Turkic peoples of
Central Asia, Uighurs live in the western Chinese province of Xinjiang,
which Islamists call East Turkistan.
According to the Washington-based terrorism monitoring group
IntelCenter, the tape was made around late July or early August and
released Tuesday by al-Sahab Media, al-Qaeda's media arm.
Nearly 200 people were killed and thousands injured or arrested in
clashes between Uighurs and Han Chinese in Xinjiang in July.
In August, the Turkistan Islamic Party, a Uighur separatist group that
claimed responsibility for a 2008 bombing in Shanghai, used similar
language to call for attacks in response to the "massacre" of Uighurs
in Xinjiang.
"There is no path to salvation or toward lifting oppression and
injustice save by returning to religion," al-Libi said. Muslims "must
sincerely prepare for jihad (holy war) and take up arms against the
ruthless invaders."
"Consecutive Chinese governments have worked hard to sever every link
between the wounded people of Turkistan and the Muslim nation," he
said. "They are working to destroy them so that their numbers will
decrease and their Islamic identity will be dissolved."
Al-Libi called for "a media campaign to tell the Muslim nation the
truth about what is going on there and to expose Chinese colonialism."
