Whenever an ignorant Westerner starts parroting the propaganda line about supposed persecution of Muslims in China show them videos like this - a thriving Hui Muslim community deep in south western China. Remind them that there are more mosques in China than in all of Europe and America put together…and by a large margin too!

    Imagine the sound the Westoids will make when you tell them that Hui Muslims declared Jihad against Japanese Fascism in WWII:

    The Japanese attempted to justify their invasion to the Muslim Chinese by promises of liberation and self-determination. Chinese Muslims rejected that, and jihad (Islamic struggle) was declared to be obligatory and sacred for all Chinese Muslims against Japan.

    A Chinese Muslim Imam, Hu Songshan, was instrumental in his support of the war. When Japan invaded China in 1937, Hu Songshan ordered for the Chinese flag to be saluted during morning prayer, along with an exhortation to nationalism. He invoked Qur’anic authority to urge sacrifice against Japan. A prayer was written by him in Arabic and Chinese for the defeat of the Japanese and the support of the Kuomintang Chinese government.[37] Hu Songshan also ordered for all Imams in Ningxia to preach Chinese nationalism. The Muslim General Ma Hongkui assisted him in that order by making nationalism required at every mosque.

      If there’s one thing westoids hate more than foreign countries, it’s being reminded that their excuses for destroying foreign countries are identical to the ones the fascist powers of ww2 used.
