Kunming stunned by cafe bombing
Posted byWhile I agree that we do not want to use this forum to propagate fear of particular religious groups, I do not think it is nonsense to ask if the attack was religiously motivated. Whatever the motivations of the attacker- religious or political- I think we ought to consider them. Frankly, I did not sense that such deep anger towards the ex pat community was brewing, and I am very curious if architects of the attack are nationalist xenophobes, or religious fundamentalists. This is actually why I find the bomber confessing to the bus bombings rather incongruous. While the foreign community seems to have been the target of the attack at Salvadores, suggesting perhaps nationalist extremists, the bus bombing seems aimed at general social stability, and more likely the work of someone trying to undermine the central government- like religious fundamentalists.

Posted byHey xiao liu. why not make your way over here and I'll teach you a free English lesson first. Your grammar and punctuation are terrible. How can you disrespect the English language so much?
Why did you learn English?

Report: Cafe bomber confesses to bus bombing
Posted byIf this case is like many others in Kunming, it will be quite some time before we hear any solid information regarding the case.
The police have a huge job on their hands now, and are certainly feeling the pressure of having to explain (or attempt to explain) what exactly happened that morning, and why.
I must say I'm really surprised at the lack of attention this has received in the national news. Having a potentially western-targeted attack anywhere in China is huge, and could be a very ominous sign of things to come. Let's all hope it was just a random act of aggression as Lester has pointed out.

Posted byLet's try to avoid a flame war here.
Acts of terrorism are committed to sow the seeds of fear and hatred. If we let that happen, then we've surrendered. The antidote is positivity and love.
Rise above

Posted byxiaoliu 76, let me remind you that foreigners didn't plant the bomb. We didn't "bring" any danger to "your" country. The anti-foreign sentiments did.
