What the heck. Let’s play hookey.
Greenwald has an interesting piece today on the Uighers. He references an article from the NYT this morning which reports:
The Chinese state news agency reported Monday that 156 people were killed and more than 800 injured when rioters clashed with the police in a regional capital in western China after days of rising tensions between members of the Uighur ethnic group and Han Chinese.
The casualty toll, if confirmed, would make this the deadliest outbreak of violence in China in many years.
So, it being Monday (laundry day), I wandered off on another google-chase.
