Aren’t these muslims from western China? If so, then this group has caused China a lot of problems over the years. And China has a lot less room and a lot more consequences for dissent. They should love the US.

They will love the US only to the extent they will be freer than in China to conspire on terror plots. Islamic extremists, by definition, hate any established government that is not governed by Sharia law.

Maybe they're not our enemies:

'We are here to help. Release them into our custody,' " said Nury Turkel, a Washington aviation lawyer and past president of the Uyghur American Association, a District-based human rights group that uses another spelling of the ethnic group's name. "We have people offering them places to stay, English training, employment. We don't want anyone to think they will be a burden on society. We've suffered just like the Tibetans, but nobody knows about us because we don't have a Dalai Lama.” (from WaPo 10/17/08)
