			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Quelling worried speculation that the perpatrators of the recent Kashgar attack had come from abroad, <a href="http://tajikistan.neweurasia.net/2008/08/05/too-close-for-comfort-xinjang-attackers-from-tajikistan/">possibly even Tajikistan</a>, the PRC&#8217;s official state news organization Xinhua has release information in a Mandarin language report that the attackers were indeed PRC citizens local to Kashgar.</p>
<blockquote><p><span>新华网乌鲁木齐８月５日电   记者５日从新疆维吾尔自治区公安厅了解到，８月４日发生在新疆喀什的暴力袭击案件，警方在现场抓获两名犯罪嫌疑人，均为男性，喀什人，年龄分别为２８岁、３３岁，其中一人为出租车司机，另一人为菜贩</span></p>
<p>Xinhua Network, Urumqi, 5 August &#8211; Reporters have learned from the XUAR Public Security Department, that the two suspects apprehended after the violent surprise attack in Kashgar, Xinjiang are males, from Kashgar, are 28 and 33 years old, with one being a taxi driver and the other a vegetable seller.</p></blockquote>
<p>The article also claims that the attacks were premeditated and that the 9 explosives and one home made gun were similar to the ones seized during the notorious raid on a &#8220;terrorist stronghold&#8221; in Akto last January. Interestingly, the article also mentions that somehow, from two of the &#8220;fearsome&#8221; knives retrieved from the scene of attack, the authorities are certain that &#8220;Holy War&#8221; was their motive.</p>
<p>Also, if you&#8217;re into, let&#8217;s call it &#8220;dark humor,&#8221; check out some of the <a href="http://www.zonaeuropa.com/200808a.brief.htm#013">gratuitous &#8220;artist&#8217;s conceptions&#8221; of the attack that ESWN pulled from the Hong Kong tabloid &#8220;Apple Daily&#8221;</a>:</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Go to <a href="http://www.zonaeuropa.com/200808a.brief.htm#013">ESWN&#8217;s page on the pictures</a> for more sensational comic-book style images, including one where the nasty terrorist gets his arm blown off!</p>
