22 Countries Decry Mass Detention, Seek Monitoring” The headline on Human Rights Watch's website. This NGO, often criticized for reflecting US government positions, ignored the fact that at the same UN meeting 37 countries praised China for the way it supported human rights and was handling the social problems in Xinjiang. While some of the 37 are despicable human rights abusers themselves most represent a cross section of the Third World and most of the Islamic countries seem to be supporting the Chinese efforts to restore social peace in Xinjiang. The 22 also have some despicable human rights abusers (the 22 represent the US and its European allies as well as some others). The US has set up child concentration camps along its southern border and many of the 22 have racist immigration policies against refugees fleeing war and famine in Africa and the Middle East that have resulted in thousands of drowning deaths in the Mediterranean. The 37 represent, by and large, those who think the Chinese are handling threats of religious fundamentalism and violence in Xinjiang in a rational and humane way and object to the US and its allies trying politicize the issue and misrepresent the facts.
Political and cultural commentary based on a world view shaped by the works of Plato, Aristotle, Confucius, Averroes, Maimonides, Spinoza, Kant, Hegel, Marx, Sartre and Bertrand Russell "What is the use of studying philosophy if all that it does for you is to enable you to talk with some plausibility about some abstruse questions of logic, etc., and if it does not improve your thinking about the important questions of everyday life, if it does not make you more conscientious."-Wittgenstein
