    Two men suspected of trying to hijack a flight in China were beaten to death by passengers

    Two men who allegedly tried to hijack a plane in China were beaten to death by passengers and crew, state media said today.
    The men were part of a six-strong gang, aged 20 to 36, who attempted to hijack a Tianjin Airlines flight bound for Urumqi last Friday.
    Minutes after the flight carrying 101 people took off from Hetian, southwest Xinjiang, three men in the front and three in the back stood up and announced their plans to terrified passengers, according to reports.


    The group, all from the city of Kashgar in the west of Xinjiang, then broke a pair of aluminum crutches and used the pieces to attack passengers while trying to break into the cockpit, a regional government spokesman said.
    They were tackled by police and passengers who tied them up with belts before the plane returned to the airport safely just 22 minutes later.
    Several passengers and crew members were injured in the tussle. The alleged hijackers were taken to hospital where two of them later died, the state-run Global Times reported.
    The newspaper said two others were hospitalised after mutilating themselves, but gave no others details.


    The regional government spokesman added the men had smuggled suspected explosives on board. These were still being tested by police today.
    Xinjiang is home to a large population of minority Uighurs (pronounced WEE'-gurs), but is ruled by China's ethnic majority Hans.
    There have been clashes between authorities and Uighurs resentful of government controls over their religion and culture.

    An overseas rights group says the incident wasn't a hijacking attempt but an in-flight brawl over a seat dispute.
    Dilxat Raxit, spokesman for the German-based World Uyghur Congress which campaigns for Uighurs' rights, said that it wasn't a hijacking attempt but an in-flight brawl over a seat dispute.
    Friday's incident occurred just a few days before the anniversary of the July 2009 riots in Urumqi when nearly 200 people were killed in fighting between Han Chinese and Uighurs.
    Tensions are already high in Hotan, where authorities raided a religious school recently and are conducting home searches, according to the Washington-based Uighur American Association.

    I may like China being the new superpower. They won't bow to the Muslims. They may just nuke Mecca, if the Muslims try a 9/11-style attack on them.

    The Uyghurs are the most discriminated ethnic group in China,, even Tibetans despise them.

    Tibetans have a saying if they are served a bad cup of tea- "Tastes like a Uyghur penis dipped in hot water".

    You know all those "miss me yet?" posters of Bush that have bill floating around? Someone should hang that slogan on a picture of the U.S. flag and get ready to sent it to Brazil, Iran, and France. Over the next decade, they're so going to miss American diplomacy.​

    Muslim protests put down in China...

    China draws shroud of silence over deadly Xinjiang clashes
    Sun, Sep 01, 2013 - The blood has long since been hosed away, but more than a month after Chinese security forces opened fire on a crowd of Muslim protesters, killing what local residents say were scores of young men, there is a palpable fear on the streets of this dusty farming township in Xinjiang, the restive borderland region in China’s far west.

    The thing about killing Muslim civilians is that, in a few hours, you feel hungry to do it again. Ask, Barack Hussein Obama.....

    ???I would think it would be more insulting to be the one who tastes Uyghur penis dipped in hot water than it would be to be the one with a bad tasting penis

    1. The title of the article "Two men suspected of trying to hijack a flight in China were beaten to death by passengers" is a subtle play of words and smacks of disinformation.

    It’s more obvious to readers if some of the words in the title are replaced with other words:

    (a) Two men suspected of shoplifting in the US were beaten to death by shoppers.

    (b) Two men suspected of robbing a bank in the US were beaten to death by customers.

    The most "mischievous" word in the article's title is obviously "suspected" as it implies the men may be innocent.

    The other "mischievous" words in the article's title are "beaten to death" and "China" as they create the false impression how cruel and brutal the Chinese are.

    2. The title of your post "Chinese Beat Two Likely Muslim Hijackers to Death on Plane" is more biased and smacks of disinformation and racism".

    The most "mischievous" word is "likely" as it implies that the men may be innocent.

    The other "mischievous" words are "beat...to death", "Chinese" and "Muslim" as they create the false impression how cruel and brutal the Chinese are. Besides that, they cunningly and dangerously suggest some sort of racial discrimination and ethnic cleansing in China.

    3. Readers would get the false impression and be deceived by the titles without reading the full story. Following are excerpts from the article headlined "Two men suspected of trying to hijack a flight in China were beaten to death by passengers" at http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...na-beaten-death-passengers.html#ixzz1zbNfmLSf

    (Begin excerpts)
    .....The men were part of a six-strong gang, aged 20 to 36, who attempted to hijack a Tianjin Airlines flight bound for Urumqi last Friday.

    Minutes after the flight carrying 101 people took off from Hetian, southwest Xinjiang, three men in the front and three in the back stood up and announced their plans to terrified passengers, according to reports.

    4. Finally. I wish to comment on your conclusion "I may like China being the new superpower. They won't bow to the Muslims. They may just nuke Mecca, if the Muslims try a 9/11-style attack on them."

    Your sentences are craftily and dangerously designed to drive a wedge between China and the Muslim World. What are you aiming at by suggesting the Chinese “may just nuke Mecca, if the Muslims try a 9/11-style attack on them"?

    After having his fun on a drone in Syria, "hungry" Obama may come to celebrate Mother's Day with you. Beware that the "Hungry One" may be just above you at any moment!

    A Uyghur man and a Tibetan man from one of the "Replicas of Sodom and Gomorrah" may be able to tell you what you want to know.

    What are the most discriminated ethnic groups in the so-called First World nations of Australia and America?

    It won't be surprising that such a Tibetan saying exists, given that Buddhist fanaticism exists in Tibet, Sri Lanka and particularly Myanmar.

    My dear friend, I have never expected such a ridiculous question from you.

    You might as well claim that albinos are an ethnic group.

    I expected such answers as Native Americans and Australian aborigines for the US and Australia respectively.

    As a Chinese saying goes, it looks like I am wasting my time and annoying the bull by "playing music to a bull".

    China Security Chief Says East Turkestan Group Behind Attack

    The people in a vehicle that crashed near Tiananmen Square this week, leaving five dead, had links to a Uighur militant group in Central Asia, China’s security chief Meng Jianzhu said in an interview with Phoenix Television.
    China should take a firmer stance against terrorism, Meng said during a meeting yesterday of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in Uzbekistan, according to a video report on Phoenix TV’s website.
    “This violent terrorist attack that happened in Beijing is an organized, pre-meditated activity,” Meng, a member of the Chinese Communist Party’s Politburo, told Phoenix TV. “The instigator behind the scenes is the East Turkestan Islamic Movement terrorist organization that is entrenched in Central and Western Asia.”

    What's done (by mortals) cannot be undone. We, the earthlings, just pray the family of three could drive their way safely to the Home of Allah and enjoy eternal peace and happiness there. For the fortunate/unfortunate Filipino and Chinese tourists, we, the earthlings, pray that they could forgive the terrorists and enjoy their eternal tour of Heaven and Nirvana respectively.
