Communist China's Policy of Oppression in East Turkestan

268
Uighurs living in East Turkestan, because they are Muslims, imposes a
great responsibility on all Muslims in the world. As Allah notifies in
one verse:
What reason could you have for not fighting in the Way of Allah-for
those men, women and children who are oppressed and say, "Our Lord,
take us out of this city whose inhabitants are wrongdoers! Give us a
protector from You! Give us a helper from You!"? (Surat an-Nisa’: 75)
As commanded in that verse, it is the duty of every Muslim to wage
a war of ideas for the liberation of all oppressed Muslims. The systematic
campaign of genocide being waged by China in East Turkestan needs to
be opposed by diplomacy, the media, and civil initiatives.
China is expending great efforts to make the world forget that region,
and to portray the innocent Muslims living there as "terrorists." In
the face of this, every Muslim must use all of means at their disposal to
tell the world about the suffering in East Turkestan and to attract the attention
of international organizations. Muslims must publicize the issue
in newspapers, magazines and on Internet sites. They must support the
rightful cause of the people of East Turkestan. Political leaders must take
the issue up, demand justice and permanent solutions in their relations
with China and the West, and members of the public must encourage
them to do so. Civil organizations must also take up the issue, and hold
seminars, conferences and remembrance days about East Turkestan. By
bringing the issue onto the international agenda, legal sanctions must be
imposed on China, and the Muslims of East Turkestan must be given
new hope by being shown that they have not been forgotten.
Beyond that, the whole world needs to be introduced to Islam, and
shown that Islam has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism,
but actually intends to do away with such acts of violence.
Speaking out and decrying those who claim they resort to terrorism in
the name of religion, and explaining and practicing Islam's compas-
