“兵团第一政治委员由中共新疆维吾尔自治区党委书记兼任。兵团政治委员和司令员兼任自治区的党、政副职，由中共中央和国务院直接任免”“新疆”自治区书记实际就是中国政府派驻的“总督”，这就是殖民。请关注“我为维吾尔人发声”行动

Today marks the 5th anniversary of my mother's imprisonment. My mom made a huge sacrifice for the Uyghur culture in her life. If those 5 years were not taken from her life, she would make even greater achievements for the world.

习近平说维吾尔和汉人是“血脉相连”的“中华民族”，可是世界最大的基因检测公司23andMe最近以东突主体民族维吾尔人的基因不匹配中国为由把东突从中国独立出来并入了中亚地区，科学是不会骗人的。@23andMe
