Since China so far only seeks to dominate Asia I’ll go with the Chicoms on this one.

Looks like the Chinese actually want their country to remain Chinese. Good for them.

Not for me - I know who I’m rooting for here! Red China may even come up with a permanent solution.

They’d tear down a Synagogue or a cathedral just as quickly, so it’s hard to give them kudos for that bit of self-defense!

If the world wish’s to remain free a lot of Mosque’s will have to come down.

If the Muslims don’t like it they can always find a place in Saudi, Jordan, Turkey, Libya, etc.

Would this be classified as a pre-emptive counter-jihad?

well technically the Hui people ARE Chinese, Chinese Moslems from the 16th century or earlier.

Hong Kong-based human rights monitors said the trouble erupted on Friday after police declared the mosque an illegal structure.

Based on my experience with the consistency in coverage, policy and (selective) outrage of "human rights monitors" worldwide, I'll go with the RED Chinese cops knocking down the Moo's and the Mosque, here.

Amazing, 25 years ago I would have thought this impossible.

Note to Muzzies: Come to America instead and blow something up. You can build a new mosque here in the vacant pile of rubble.

Those Chinese are screwing up big time. You tear down the mosques while they are occupied.
