Oh no, imagine resorting to terrorism when your ethnicity and culture is systematically being erased by the second largest regime in the world.

Uighurs have been committing terrorist attacks since way before these camps have existed: 1992 Ürümqi bombings, the 1997 Ürümqi bus bombings, the 2010 Aksu bombing, the 2011 Hotan attack, 2011 Kashgar attacks, the 2014 Ürümqi attack and the 2014 Kunming attack. And bombing a shrine in Bangkok killing 20.
Home made bombs dropped in markets, driving trucks in to crowds of people, random knife attacks. Doesn't sound unfamiliar here in Europe. They're all reading from the same book.
What China is doing is pretty horrible but it's not like Xi woke up one day and decided he didn't like Uighurs.
