West could learn from China’s solution for Islamist violence

West could learn from China’s solution for Islamist violence

Re: “China’s concentration camps for Muslims”, (Wall Street Journal), Opinion & Analysis, August 30.

The Western media continue to accuse China of harassing the Muslim Uighur in Xinjiang. The Chinese way of taming this problem of radical Muslims has been very effective and has limited the loss of life to a minimum. Meanwhile Western countries facing the same problem have suffered an abysmal loss of life and budget money (ie the 9/11 tragedy), regular suicide bombings, and, despite the US president even supervising the assassination of a Muslim terrorist leader, have still failed to suppress Islamist violence in their own backyard.
May I suggest that the Western world should seek to learn from the Chinese here, not to condemn them.
