http://www.worldtribune.com/2012/11...ur-muslims-to-join-forces-with-syrian-rebels/An official Chinese newspaper said fighters from the ethnic Turkish
Uighur minority were recruited to join Sunni rebels in Syria. The Global Times, based in Beijing, said at least two separatist groups linked to Al Qaida were coordinating the trip from China to Syria.
“After receiving orders from Al Qaida, terrorists from China came to
Syria to meet with jihadists already on the ground before forming groups on the front lines,” an unidentified Chinese official told the newspaper on Oct. 29.
The newspaper said Turkey was playing a role in recruiting and financing the Chinese fighters. Officials identified the Turkish groups as the East Turkistan Islamic Movement and the East Turkestan Education and Solidarity Association. Chinese separatists have called their short-lived countries East Turkistan.
Would not Bermuda be better?
