How China taught Islam to an American Blogger in Xinjiang

The Far West China blog gave a pretty good point of view of his experiences with Muslims in China looking at four different misconceptions:

  1. Islam is a Religion
  2. Islam oppresses Women
  3. Muslims are Arabs with Turbans
  4. If a Muslim kills, it is part of a “jihad”

I am quite impressed with his point of view.  I am also envious that he gets to live in this part of the world.

Uyghur Peace March in Japan

Found this on Japan Probe.  Very interesting.  Many people in the West do not now much about the plight of the Uyghurs in China’s Xinjiang Province.  Below is a video of a Peace March in Japan.
