<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p align="justify">After the tragic events of July 5 in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region in China, it would be useful to look more closely into the actual role of the US Government’s ”independent“ NGO, the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). All indications are that the US Government, once more acting through its “private” Non-Governmental Organization, the NED, is massively intervening into the internal politics of China.</p>
<p align="justify">The reasons for Washington’s intervention into Xinjiang affairs seems to have little to do with concerns over alleged human rights abuses by Beijing authorities against Uyghur people. It seems rather to have very much to do with the strategic geopolitical location of Xinjiang on the Eurasian landmass and its strategic importance for China’s future economic and energy cooperation with Russia, Kazakhastan and other Central Asia states of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.</p>
<p align="justify">The major organization internationally calling for protests in front of Chinese embassies around the world is the Washington, D.C.-based World Uyghur Congress (WUC).</p>

<h3><img title="Hillary and Ugyhur" src="http://buffalohair.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/hillary-and-ugyhur.jpg?w=300&#038;h=200#38;h=200" alt="Hillary and Ugyhur" width="300" height="200" /></h3>
<h3><span style="color:#993366;">Predictably China is coming loose at the seams these days. It would appear they are having trouble silencing the Uyghur people in Xingjiang. Racism is the key issue since China has treated them like second class citizens. Accounts of being forced to work for poor pay and horrific working conditions has circulated for years. During a peaceful demonstration the paranoid Chinese government took drastic measures killing scores of innocent people and arresting thousands. The death toll is rising as the mounting violence continues. Sadly the government has given Chinese civilians a green light to harass this persecuted ethnic group.</span></h3>
<h3><span style="color:#993366;">What will be interesting to see are the international corporations who’ve capitalized on these people. China already has a dismal track record with their Gulag System or slave labor camps. The Falun Gong sect has been targeted for years with harsh and inhuman treatment. Members have been tortured to death, forced into slave labor camps and ultimately used like cattle in the organ transplant industry. This has proven to be a goldmine for the corporations that relocated to China. Small wonder Walmart and other corporate turn coats are profiteering in China. How could anyone else compete with no labor laws and an endless supply of slave labor? Bill Clinton’s “Favored Nation Status” has really given China the racers edge for sure. Maybe Hillary will “hurt” her other elbow so she does not have to address this issue either. That would be “provocative” of her.</span></h3>
<h3><span style="color:#993366;">You really have to thank Gen. Than Shwe of Burma and Kim Jong II of North Korea for giving Asia the proper attention it needed though. Now we can appreciate China’s dark secrets and possibly focus on the international corporations who capitalize on slave labor. Chances are these corporations will also be involved in other acts of tyranny around the world as well. Notorious for padding the pockets of tin horn dictators throughout Africa and South America, corporations have been the root cause of wars and civil unrest in the third world for years. Now they are coming to a country near you. Small wonder China did not want to impose any sanctions on Burma, they were as guilty as Than Shwe for the wholesale murder of ethnic minorities, the Uyghur people being one of them.</span></h3>
<h3><span style="color:#993366;">But it’s not over for China by a long shot. I saw this one coming and I see other groups readying their assault. Wonder how these international corporate executives would feel knowing they are in mortal danger from the very people they’ve enslaved and allowed China to torture. They may have hid all this from the US press but there are millions of witnesses to the atrocities they have committed. China will undoubtedly lower the boom on these Uyghur demonstrators but others will soon be popping up. The cat is out of the bag though and China will be under the microscope like Burma is. Compound the fact natural disaster will soon paint a different financial picture on China’s corporate bottom line and China’s future looks dismal at best. Maybe Chinese officials are using the same astrologer as Than Shwe.</span></h3>
<h3><span style="color:#993366;">The Xingjiang riots themselves show China’s racial bias if anyone was paying attention. When the Uyghur people were peacefully demonstrating the Chinese government killed scores of them while making mass arrests. But when the Han Chinese, armed with bats, lead pipes and shovels marched down the Uyghur district towards a mosque beating people and destroying shops the Chinese military only pleaded with them to cease and desist. It’s an old fashioned race riot and it’s only the beginning since China will soon be powerless to stop them. Racial inequities prevail throughout China. Soon it will not be safe for any foreign investors. Just so we get those discount prices is all that matter anyway.</span></h3>

<p>Reported by <a href="http://thechinabeat.blogspot.com/2008/11/catch-that-pepsi-spirit.html">The China Beat</a>, a description of a Pepsi ad shoot in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urumqi">Urumchi</a>, the capitol of the <a class="mw-redirect" title="Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xinjiang_Uyghur_Autonomous_Region">Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region</a> in China.</p>
<blockquote><p>The story unfolded for us as we arrived at the sports stadium before dawn on a warm Saturday morning in May. The ad centered on a football match between a (Han) Chinese national team and an “international conglomerate” foreign team. At the beginning of the ad, the Chinese fans would be interspersed between the international fans, but losing badly to the foreigners. The roars of the international crowd silenced their cheers for the Chinese national team. Then, the two Chinese pop stars flew in (literally, with the help of two really cool stunt men from Beijing) on cue to rally the Chinese crowd with Pepsi. With the arrival of Pepsi and the very attractive Chinese pop stars (with all the usual fanfare of a recent Zhang Yimou film), the Chinese crowd simultaneously had an epiphany and collectively realized that in order to beat the evil foreigners they needed to rally together behind Pepsi. At this point, the Chinese fans pushed their way through the international crowds to form a critical mass, which was able to make their voices heard. With that, the Chinese football team was able to defeat the international conglomerate team. The entire narrative centered on the two Chinese pop stars (rather, their amazing stunt men) performing all kinds of acrobatic stunts at the cost of the dignity of the international team—such as, but not limited to jumping off the top mezzanine into the crowd of Japanese nationals (played, very begrudgingly, by Han Chinese high school students) and rebounding off the head of the Japanese drummer into a sea of Han Chinese students, who were anxiously awaiting Pepsi.
