Beijing accuses the Chinese Muslims of terrorism in pursuit of separatist aims, and has demanded the Uighur detainees' repatriation. The United States has refused, saying the detainees would face persecution if sent to China.

Considering the fact the Uighurs were picked up in Afganistan(not a place for holidays) and in view of the recent troubles in China with its Islamic minorities one would expect the country to be cautious in welcoming these people back in its territory.

US concerns about the Uighurs human rights is
just crocodile tears if you consider what the Bush administration did over the last 8 years.

Rendition,torture,detention without trial,denial of Habeus Corpus and al fundamental rights we all take for grannted.

Article 5 of the United Nations Declaration of human rights which the US helped to draft and ratify after WWII says:
"No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel,inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment".

US is the last country in the world to preach the world about human rights.
