Uighurs are dying in these camps in not inconsiderable numbers. That's why Beijing is now building crematoria. There's a new Third Reich, and it is #China.

In the interview, the spiritual leader, who is 84 this week, touched on topics including US President Donald Trump, his dreams of returning to Tibet, and refugees.
However, it was his comments on the prospect of a female Dalai Lama that raised eyebrows.
"If a female Dalai Lama comes, she should be more attractive," he said in English, while laughing.
The statement apologised for any offence caused and put it down to a misunderstood joke.
The Dalai Lama "has a keen sense of the contradictions between the materialistic, globalized world he encounters on his travels and the complex, more esoteric ideas about reincarnation that are at the heart of Tibetan Buddhist tradition", the statement said.
"However, it sometimes happens that off the cuff remarks, which might be amusing in one cultural context, lose their humour in translation when brought into another. He regrets any offence that may have been given."
Each morning, I choose the attitude I will adopt for the day, holding to bright possibilities regardless of circumstances. I respond to events with faith and optimism. I choose positive and affirmative words.
I am blessed by freedom of choice. I decline to let anyone or anything control me. I am one with God, and, relying on the spirit that expresses through me, I freely choose my path.
I also acknowledge I must choose wisely. Each choice has consequences, and each brings opportunities. Freedom blesses my day, my relationships, my health, and my life.
The Far East of late has become something of a spawning ground for spiritual leaders bent on converting the world. There was South Korea's Rev. Sun Myung Moon, 55, a self-ordained Christian missionary (and self-made millionaire) whose message of repentance was blatted across the U.S. last year by thousands of zealous young converts to his Unification Church (TIME, Sept. 30). Yet another prophet is Daisaku Ikeda, 46, president and spiritual leader of Japan's Soka Gakkai (Value-Creation Society), a laymen's Buddhist organization. Ikeda is fast earning a reputation as a super missionary for peace.
