Either China let the international community in to document what has been going on in Xingjing or some countries will have to take action

- Summary
- Bachelet has sought access to Xinjiang for nearly 3 years
- Says her office is assessing alleged abuses while negotiating
- Has previously initiated probes without a country's invitation
- "It is time for her to act," says Ken Roth, Human Rights Watch
GENEVA, June 25 (Reuters) - The United Nations human rights chief should document her own findings on the plight of Uyghurs in Xinjiang even without China's blessing for a visit, activists and Western diplomats say, amid signs that her patience may be running out.
Michelle Bachelet, U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, said on Monday that she hoped to agree on terms for a long-sought visit to China this year to look into allegations of mass detention, torture and forced labour.

Beijing denies all allegations of abuse of Uyghurs and other Turkic Muslims, describing camps in its far west as vocational training facilities to combat religious extremism.
Canada led a record 45 countries, including the United States, in urging China on Tuesday to allow Bachelet immediate access to Xinjiang for a first-hand assessment.

China rejected the statement as interference driven by "political motives". It said it welcomed a visit by Bachelet, but that it should be focused on "promoting exchanges and cooperation rather than an investigation based on so-called presumption of guilt".
Bachelet later dropped a hint to the Human Rights Council that she has other options, while still pursuing negotiations with China on a visit that have dragged on since September 2018.
"In the meantime, the office continues to deepen its analysis and assessment of the alleged patterns of human rights violations in Xinjiang," she said on Tuesday.
Bachelet has the authority to collect testimonies of abuses remotely, without a mandate from the council or invitation from the country concerned. She and a predecessor initiated such probes on killings by security forces in Venezuela, the disputed Kashmir territory and southeastern Turkey.
"There is no formal U.N. assessment of what is happening in Xinjiang and we need that given Beijing's denial," Kenneth Roth, head of Human Rights Watch, told reporters last week.
Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International this year documented what they said could constitute crimes against humanity being committed in Xinjiang.
Sarah Brooks, China expert at the International Service for Human Rights, said: "All that remains is for High Commissioner Bachelet to step up - China's cooperation must not be misinterpreted as a precondition to doing her job."
The United Nations human rights chief should document her own findings on the plight of Uyghurs in Xinjiang even without China's blessing for a visit, activists and Western diplomats say, amid signs that her patience may be running out.

The World has recognised it as Genocide
No Chinese ambassador has given any evidence to suggest otherwise
and Chinese government has refused entry of UN
So only one conclusion can be drawn , Guilty
Here is a very good answer to you. From a Muslim.

Why the F*** should China allow the UN to send “inspectors" into her territory to confirm what anybody with two brain cells to rub together can figure out — that the LIE OF THE CENTURY, the bogus and despicably American-invented “Uyghur Genocide,” isn't happening?
Think of how weak and submissive this would make China look.
Did the UN ever investigate Guantanamo Bay in Cuba? Abu Ghraib in Iraq? The Bagram Theatre Internment Facility and the “Salt Pit" in Afghanistan? And those are just the ones we know about. How many more sadistic secret prisons and black sites does the CIA operate around the world? If the UN had ever been worth a damn, we would've seen at least hundreds of Americans imprisoned for life for their unspeakable crimes against humanity in Vietnam.
Have you ever seen photos of America's handiwork?
"Picture Removed" Click on link below to see.
That one's from the Mỹ Lai massacre. The piece of shit who ordered this, Second Lieutenant William Laws Calley Jr., did get his day in court, unlike most US troops who, by their own unpunished admission later, raped, shot, burned, or blew up any “gook" they wanted. (They were even given a “kill quota" to meet every day, which was “meant" to be filled with Việt Cộng soldiers but in practice was filled with any Vietnamese.)
What happened to Calley at his court-martial? Out of around 500 executed Vietnamese civilians, he was only convicted of killing 22. He was initially sentenced to life imprisonment. Only Calley, out of 27 accused, was convicted of anything at all. Then people all over the United States, instead of being outraged by the massacre, were outraged by the “harsh" sentence given to the war criminal! Even Jimmy Carter (then Governor of Georgia), whom we today consider a saint, asked Georgians to drive for a week with their lights on to protest against the sentence. Nixon intervened, and Calley “served" three years of house arrest. The Army paroled him early. Today this subhuman toad lives happily in Florida. He never spent a day behind bars.
Does this remind you of anyone? Oh yeah. Navy SEAL platoon leader and sniper Eddie Gallagher.
He's most notorious for stabbing to death a handcuffed 17-year-old alleged “ISIS combatant" with a hunting knife for no reason, taking photos with the body along with his commanding officer and other SEALS, and texting them to friends with the caption, “Good story behind this.”
But that doesn't begin to describe Gallagher's evil. According to some whistleblowers in his platoon, he
- was observed shooting and killing an old man in a white robe and a young girl walking with other girls, for no reason
- was known for “indiscriminately spraying neighbourhoods with rockets and machine gun fire" when there was “no known enemy in the region"
- “boasted about the large number of people he had killed, claiming he averaged three kills a day over 80 days, including four women"
So Gallagher's serial murders were widely known by his platoon and commanding officer. Who turned him in? Just like with Calley, nobody. It was only the photos he texted that got him in trouble! He was convicted — not of murder, not of crimes against humanity — but of posing with a dead body. His punishment? He was DEMOTED in rank. He didn't even get a discharge.
And history repeated itself. Just like with Calley, the response of the American public and political class was fury against Gallagher's “harsh" sentence. So Trump intervened. It was Christmas for this psychopath. He got a presidential pardon, his demotion was reversed, the officers who convicted and demoted him were PUNISHED, AND he became a celebrity among the American right.
The photo above? It's Gallagher with his wife, lawyer, and fellow soldiers after getting his presidential pardon. One year later (2018), he retired from the Navy with full honours, pension, and medical benefits. Since then he's written a “book” portraying himself as an all-American hero, gotten interviewed on 60 Minutes, he's about to get a freaking TV series based on his life, and he's living on top of the world cashing in on the murders he committed in Iraq. All this when a CIVILIZED country, not one of SAVAGES, would've immediately lynched him from a tree.
~ ~ ~
So what've we learned? Between Nixon and Trump, and between 1968 (Mỹ Lai massacre) and 2017 (Gallagher's serial murders in Iraq), 50 freaking years, nothing changed.
And KEEP IN MIND — The Mỹ Lai massacre was covered up. The murdered Vietnamese peasants were officially listed as “VC combatants,” and the troops who butchered them were congratulated for valour in combat. We only know about Mỹ Lai because journalist Seymour Hersh interviewed whistleblowers and wrote a story about the massacre two years after it happened, and the story “went viral" and embarrassed the US Army into a public war crimes investigation.
Likewise, we only know about Gallagher because he proudly circulated photos of himself with a stabbed-to-death prisoner. And those photos were VERY FAR from the worst things he had done.
In other words, if it hadn't been for rare and extraordinary circumstances, we would never have known about Mỹ Lai and Gallagher. These incidents are a DROP IN THE OCEAN of what really happened in Vietnam and Iraq. There were definitely hundreds of Mỹ Lais and thousands of Gallaghers and Calleys. 2 million civilians died in Vietnam and probably over a million in Iraq. Nobody counted the gook or raghead bodies, unlike US troops whose every PTSD diagnosis, concussion, and muscle spasm mattered.
You think I’m fucking exaggerating? Watch a clip of ex-Marine Vince Emanuele talking about Iraq, where he served two tours. He says and I quote,
It was a free-for-all. There was no media there. There’s no one to look after you. And the Marines took it upon themselves to shoot at, beat, rob, rape, kill whoever they wanted to. And that's being proposed on the news as like, "just a few bad apples," "This is a very isolated incident."
And if you’ve got a strong stomach, watch even part of this 90-minute documentary from the 70s where US soldiers, young at the time, talk freely about what they did in Vietnam. 50,000 views in 2 years on YouTube. The truth IS out there. It’s just being hidden from you, or maybe you want to keep drinking the US State Department’s Kool-Aid.
But you see, in the American-led international order, the law of the globe is that you will face justice for committing crimes against humanity unless you happen to be American, in which case, CONGRATULATIONS for your crimes against humanity, and you have nothing to worry about.
And this sadistic pig nation, this evil empire, is pointing its fingers at China and demanding a UN investigation of Xinjiang, where as I've proven again and again in my answers, NOTHING is happening? I have yet to see one photo of one dead body from the American-invented Uyghur “Genocide” (and silly me, I thought genocide literally meant “the killing of people"). But how many millions of man-years in prison would be served if we could investigate, prosecute and convict every Yankee war criminal over the past 50 years? The UN did that with Serbia, Rwanda, and Liberia. It'll never get to do that with the number-one perpetrator of holocausts today, the United States of America.
This answer is NOT whataboutism. I’m not highlighting US atrocities to compare the US unfavourably with China. I'm highlighting US atrocities to expose the foul, vile nature of our information source on Xinjiang. Before you eagerly embrace the lies and hysteria being spread about the Uyghur “Genocide” like an unthinking ape, consider WHO IS TELLING YOU THIS AND WHY.
To quote from the movie Lord of War,
and evil prevails because the United States of America is invincible.
