JPost Report: 1,000 Chinese jihadists training in Pakistan

.
Some 1,000 Chinese jihadists are receiving military training at a base in Pakistan, as an indeterminate number of Chinese nationals are already fighting inside Syria, Jacques Neriah told a top-flight delegation from China visiting the country.
Neriah, a Middle East analyst at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs (JCPA) who was formerly foreign policy adviser to Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, presented material to his guests on the role of thousands of Chinese jihadists in the Syrian civil war, as well as on the involvement of volunteers from Uzbekistan and other Central Asian states surrounding China.

What makes the existence of a training camp in North Waziristan in Pakistan even more interesting from a Chinese perspective, is that China and Pakistan are allies.
The 10-person Chinese delegation includes several participants from the Central Party School (CPS) of the Communist Party’s central committee, which has served as a training ground for China’s top leadership, including its president, Xi Jinping.
The delegation arrived at the beginning of the week to take part in a symposium organized jointly by JCPA and SIGNAL, the Sino-Israel Global Network and Academic Leadership, and to discuss joint Israeli-Chinese interests in the Middle East.
JCPA head Dore Gold said that in understanding the operations of al-Qaida and its “franchises” operating around the world, it was necessary to keep in mind the groups’ strategies, as well as the fact that “there are certain risks” when the volunteers fighting in Syria return home.
Israel, Gold said, has “a great deal of knowledge about the spread of jihadist organizations, and when you learn the patterns in parts of Africa and Europe, it may have applications in other parts of the world.”
According to Gold, while many people are aware of the growing business and economic interests that Israel and China share, and the extensive ties between their business communities, the two countries also have “shared strategic foreign policy interests” – among the most important being counter- terrorism.

First of all, the article is just ridiculous, second, what's with the title? Say JPost report, not Jews report. Your title sounds so derogatory.

Someone should make a policy on the knee-jerk Anti-Jew bashing here.

It is just as bad as when someone bashes Muslims and Hindus, Christians.

Hypocritical, since a lot of the inventions we use today are made by Jewish scientists.

It is with great regret to hear that so many Chinese young men have taken up such radical extremism. I can only empathize the pain their parents, especially their mothers will feel, knowing her son is off to some destructive campaign. And not knowing whether she will see him again. Just so sad. Seeing the face of a mother filled with tears... :(

Hello new guy.

just some pro tips. To survive in Defence.pk you must not show empathy, and be rational.

Instead be jingoistic and egotistic. You will fit right in :cheers:

Please help us get rid of those garbage.

To be honest, you can do whatever you want: bomb them, burn them, shoot them, feed them to dogs...

Research has shown that parents play a significant role in shaping the personality and character of their kids, with the first 3 years of infancy being the most significant. So parents bare some responsibilities if their kids grow up to become violent and terrorists. Of course this is not always the case, kids from good family can turn violent due to some events later in life or other influences, but this is an exception rather than the norm. The norm is that if kids grow up in a good family and environment, they will most likely grow up to be a good person with no disposition towards violence or terrorism.

I agree, I believe many of these are disenfranchised youths who have been marginalized, and deprived and thus have resorted to radicalization / extremism. It is sad to know that they will be used as pawns for some sadistic organization, their precious lives will be to of no avail. Unless the living conditions for the ethnic Uighyur minority in Xinjiang improves, we can only expect more of such disenfranchisement to occur.

It is also rather bothersome to read some of the posts of some members here , showcasing brutality of their points. I mean, these people are still people....
