My fear is that it will lead to Chinese government and public to think that the near genocidal policy of Mao was more effective than dialogue, integration and reconciliation at keeping the peace.
EXACTLY! Committing terrorism is only going to give the PRC government an excuse to crack down even harder than they've previously done.
Acts of terrorism will not win you allies from the rest of the world. The world will side with the victims, not the perpetrators. Seeing as how China is already too important as a world economic player to be shunned, having the world back them up on this issue is going to have some dire consequences for the Uighurs.
Even the US has officially condemned this attack and is backing China on this.
Like I said, these people are asking for a genocide.
