Strawman. I'm demolishing your claim that "... muslim resistance movements
in China and the former Soviet
Union are not grounded in nationalist identities, but religious ones". It
would be more correct to say that ethnicity AND religious identity ground
these resistance movements. Indeed, the two are often intertwined. You are
oversimplifying and distorting the situation in order to further your
oft-repeated argument soto voce that "Islam is to blame"...
