| 2014-04-30 |
| [REUTERS] An kaboom hit a railway station in the capital of China's far western region of Xinjiang on Wednesday injuring some people, in what is likely to be seen as an embarrassing security lapse for the government. The blast happened at Urumqi's south railway station, a government front man, and came just as President Xi Jinping was wrapping up a tour of Xinjiang in which he spoke of plans to get tough on fighting terrorism. The People's Daily said on its official microblog that some people had been injured and taken to hospital. The government and state media did not give a cause for the blast. |

| #2 See also TOPIX, DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > CHINA PRESIDENT: XINJIANG "FRONT LINE" OF TERRORISM, in China. IMO it will be much much worse for Beijing iff the Ukraine-Crimea Crisis = US-vs-Russia results in struggling Russia being effectively destabilized. WINNER/ADVANTAGE = SOON-TO-BE NUCLEAR HARD BOYZ + GLOBAL JIHAD. Moreso given ... * INDIAN DEFENCE FORUM > [Reuters][Real = True] BATTLEGROUND BETWEEN RUSSIA AND WEST IS IN CHINA -JIM O'NEILL. * TOPIX > RUSSIA'S UKRAINE ACTION SHOWS ITS MILITARY LIMITS. Collectively speaking, 'tis why I've said or argued that the US + NATO-EU should not go too far or be overly excessive in implementing any sanctions agz Russia. PUTIN'S = RUSSIA'S FEAR IS NUCLEAR ISLAM, I.E. ISLAMIC STATES + HARD BOYZ, ETAL., NOT THE US OR NATO, EU. Iff the US-Allies fear a Taliban-controlled ,post-2014 Pakistan, they'll really fear the Hard Boyz being in control of Russia's Nukes-WMDS - DITTO AS PER CHINA'S + INDIA'S NUKE ARSENALS. Again, the OWG Globies have NOT answered the question as to HOW FAR CAN THE US + GREAT POWERS SAFELY RETREAT OR UNILATERALLY REDUCE THEIR WORLDWIDE POWER-N-INFLUENCE WIDOUT BECOMING EXISTENTIALLY THREATENED OR DESTROYED. To paraph the late great WARD BOND IN "THE SEARCHERS = "D *** NG IT, NOT, NOT - SPELLED K-N-O-T-T-E - NOT"! |
