Red China bans Ramadan fasting in occupied East Turkestan
7/3/2014 2:23:55 PM
Red China government's repressive policies in East Turkestan, including controls on Islam, provoked unrest.
In Communist China occupied Muslim East Turkestan, invaders officially banned students and teachers from engaging in the Islamic Ramadan fast, in yet another curb on religious freedoms against the region's native Uighur Muslim population.
All public workers, students and teachers were banned from fasting and participating in religious activities. An official invaders' radio station also announced that party members, teachers and youths cannot engage in Ramadan worship.
East Turkestan, resource-rich and strategically located on the borders of central Asia, is crucial to Communist China's growing energy needs.
Despite its mineral wealth and billions of dollars of investment, much of the proceeds have gone to Chinese colonialists, stoking resentment among Uighurs.
Muslim Uighurs - who speak a Turkic language - are cut off from economic development because they face hiring discrimination, with jobs going to an influx of enemy workers from China.
More than 200 peaceful Muslim martyred from invaders of East Turkestan in the past year.
Chinese repressive policies in East Turkestan, including controls on Islam, intensified the Jihad.
In January, police detained prominent Democratic Uighur economics professor Ilham Tohti and charged him with "separatism".
