Xinhua: Terrorist act on Chinese soil is merely "meaningless act" to USA
2014-03-03
BEIJING, March 3 (Xinhua) -- For the world's "most active human rights defender," the latest random killing of 29 innocent civilians at a crowded Chinese train station in Kunming City is too insignificant to be a terrorist activity.

The U.S. Embassy in China has downplayed the severity of the bloody carnage, calling it on its official Weibo account a "horrible and totally meaningless act of violence," short of calling the murderers "terrorists."

The wording is the continuation of the [US] government's ambiguous stance on China's counter-terrorism drive in Xinjiang.

CNN has again showed its doubts and disbelief, if not irony, by using quotation marks around the word "terrorists" in its latest reportage of the Kunming slaughter.

How the U.S. government and some media described the terrorist attacks in China has revealed their persistent double standard in the global fight against terrorism.

Their leniency for the terrorists is sending signals of encouragement to potential attackers.
