A developing rift between Iran and China. - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

Why not support the Uighers and Hui as indigenous pro Turkic secular republics? Modeled on the Ataturk success? Why not let the Turkish government take the lead and do their magic in Kazakstan and grow their economy and formulate a grassroots economic alternative, long term, across the border? Why assume that their nationalism is akin to Muslim fundamentalism? The Israelis made a mistake in the 80's: with Hamas, in a similar fashion. As have the Americans with the proto-Taliban. Why repeat history?
