Despite there being no proven Al-Qaeda presence throughout the Chinese mainland in 2001, President Jiang nodded. However, his expressions of approval and commitment to support America's War on Terror masked a different objective, and a dramatically distinct target. The War on Terror would be the perfectly timed guise, an ideological Trojan horse, cloaking a longstanding objective in Beijing to obliterate the Uyghur and their way of life.

QUESTION: This is a serious geopolitical claim about China's motives in the War on Terror. Worth verifying against other sources on Xinjiang policy and the UN human rights reports.
