Tens of Thousands Protest in Xinjiang


New unrest broke out in China's restive Xinjiang region, as tens of thousands of demonstrators took to the streets of the capital Urumqi to protest deteriorating public safety. This follows reported syringe attacks in Urumqi and comes nearly two months after violent rioting there killed nearly 200 people.

The news of mysterious hypodermic syringe attacks in Urumqi was carried by official Chinese media. Over 400 people have reportedly been stabbed. 

The state-run China Daily newspaper said police seized 15 people suspected of stabbing people with hypodermic syringe needles. The brief report said police are investigating and that no victims have yet been found to be infected or poisoned with anything.

The report did not say how many people had been stabbed, but estimates put the number of victims at about 470. The official dispatch stressed that victims came from nine different ethnicities, including Han Chinese and Uighurs, a mostly Muslim Turkic minority group.

The syringe attack prompted people to gather in downtown Urumqi to denounce the regional government for deteriorating law and order.

On Norwegian TV: Jokes About Gas Chambers

Recent instances of anti-Semitism in Norway include a nationally broadcast remark by a Norwegian entertainer who made deeply offensive statements about the Holocaust.

On a November 27, 2008 program on TV2, the entertainer Otto Jespersen said: "I would like to take the opportunity to remember all the billions of fleas and lice that lost their lives in German gas chambers, without having done anything wrong other than settling on persons of Jewish background."

In a subsequent program, Jespersen tried to make light of the remark, claiming it was made only in jest. But he exacerbated the situation by repeating other classic anti-Semitic canards.
