BEIJING — China is putting a western city where deadly ethnic violence broke out in 2009 under full surveillance, ensuring “seamless’’ coverage of sensitive areas of the city with tens of thousands of cameras, state media reported yesterday.
The same kind of thing is going up in AmeriKa to protect us from "terrorists."
Security has been tight in Urumqi since tensions between the area’s largely Muslim Uighurs and members of the country’s Han majority flared into open violence in 2009. Uighurs have long resented what they see as an incursion by Han migrants into their ancestral homeland, the Xinjiang region.
The government says 197 people were killed in that outbreak of violence, the deadliest in Xinjiang in years. China has sentenced dozens of people for their involvement in the riots, most of them Uighurs. Beijing blamed overseas Uighur groups for plotting the violence, but exile groups denied it.
Just before the one-year anniversary of the violence last year, officials said about 40,000 high-definition surveillance cameras with riot-proof protective shells had been installed throughout the region. Nearly 17,000 were installed in Urumqi last year, the state-run Xinhua News Agency reported yesterday. It was not clear if that figure was in addition to the one reported last year.
The surveillance coverage will continue to grow this year, according to Urumqi’s mayor, Jerla Isamudinhe, who spoke to the city’s Legislature over the weekend, Xinhua reported.
Surveillance is “seamless’’ — meaning there are no blind spots — in sensitive areas of the city, according to the report.
It’s not unusual to see surveillance cameras by the thousands in Chinese cities, and authorities have installed them in sensitive areas like mosques in Xinjiang and in temples in Tibet, which saw ethnic violence in 2008.
AmeriKa trailing the Chinese again.

China Internet cafe blast kills 6, injures 38
[Why would anyone bomb an Internet cafe? In the world of terrorist attacks and "false flag" terrorist attacks, the usual objective of these nuts is either to send someone a clear signal in the "dialogue of weapons," or to put a stop to some sort of activity connected to the site of the attack. Which is the case in this Internet attack, and who author of the attack? We can assume at this point, that it was not a false flag attack by the Chinese government, based upon the fact that there is no known record of China following this line of thinking in the past, but then, China may be following some "new thinking" in the terror war. If China wanted that particular locus of online activity silenced, there are many other, more quiet ways to accomplish this. But, we are left thinking,
who else but the Chinese govt.
would want to silence a nest or free-thinkers, or anti-govt. radicals?
Perfect "false flag" attack! If evidence seems to point one conclusion, even though that is an apparent contradiction to the history leading up to that moment, then it is a suspicious anomaly, which must not be taken at face value. This bombing in China, like other suspicious attacks in nations that have been targeted by the Evil Empire, such as in Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and Pakistan, are merely devices, intended to deflect blame from the powerful people who contract the attacks, and to arouse suspicion about the possible Chinese use of terrorism upon its adversaries.
Like all of these attacks, look to the greatest source of terrorism that the human race has ever known, to find the perpetrators. The scariest part of everything we uncover about this source of malevolence is its awesome ability to distort reality itself, so that the common man cannot begin to understand the truth about the facts that he his has seen with his own eyes.
"State terrorism" cannot possibly refer to actions of the United States, even if the attacks amounted to cold-blooded mass-murder. [sarcasm--ed. note] In a psychological environment where the minds of the people have been so conditioned that they cannot begin to hold the truth about the US Govt. in their minds, truth is seen as a contradiction, therefore an impossibility. People who have been brainwashed all their lives are perfect participants in a “false flag” psychological war.
