Interesting article and well written but it ignores the elephant in the room......Xinjiang. When the author (& replies) talk about Chinese youth you all seem to be referring to Han Chinese. There is growing radicalism in Xinjiang & while a lot will be stirred by outside agitators the Chinese government are doing themselves no favours. By clamping down on Islamic beliefs & traditions in Xinjiang I believe that they are actually radicalising more Uigher Muslim youths than if they tried to be tolerant to their beliefs & allowed them more freedom of religion. The Islam practiced in Xinjiang used to be moderate but with pressures brought on them by the heavy handed Chinese government they are fighting back to keep their beliefs & starting to believe in the Nohas preached by groups like ISIS.
