Religion of Peace Poses Top Security Threat to Olympics...

The Chinese military says the people most likely to attack the Olympic Games are Muslim separatists.

Speaking from the headquarters of the 6th Armoured Division, Colonel Tian Yixiang, says a terrorist attack is the most serious threat to the Olympics.

The Colonel, who also works in the Olympic Security Command Centre, said violent separatists from the far western province of Xinjiang posed the greatest threat.

He referred specifically to the east Turkestan terrorist organisation.

He says another threat comes from Tibetan separatists, and another from Falun Gong.

But Colonel Tian said China was fully capable of providing a safe Olympic Games.

    Muslim separatists are the only ones to stand up for themselves, while your beloved West pumps BILLIONS of dollars into China to crackdown on Tibetians, Uighurs and other ethnic minorities. They're quick to criticise China but they just can't afford to take any action because their Nikes and Adidas depend on the slavery of Chinese workers.
