Surely couldn't be too hard to investigate how those passport got issued. Could Turkey be sponsoring terrorism?

*Cough* Syria *Cough*.
But of course, its never call terrorism when western countries or their allies sponsor it, its only call terrorism when it happens to western countries or the allies.
The western media have zero problems reporting an attack as a terrorists incident when someone chops someone's head off in France, but at best it needs quotation marks every damned time when knife wielding terrorists attack police in China, worst case, they call it a protest and take the wild and unsubstantiated claims of so called "rights groups" who openly and clearly has a fierce anti-China agenda at face value.
If these attacks had been carried out against western targets, every one of these so-called "rights groups" would have been investigated for links to terrorists and I would be amazed if they didn't find any connections.

Western reporters and some bloggers based in China used to subtly write of trampling of other minorities's human rights by the Han Chinese in their write-ups about their customs and traditions. Uninformed readers would then mistake the Han CCP as the oppressors.
I think this is a good opportunity to clarify that Han/Tang is not just a race, but an acquired identity.
Take me for example, from HK which would make me technically "nam man" category of barbarians in terms of 1000 BC Zhou cosmology. It is interesting thou, we in the south refer to ourselves as the tribe of Tang/Hua, and those from central china would refer to themselves as the tribe of Han. Tang of course, after the Coup of one of its generals became the Song, which last emperor died in Hong Kong.
Tang and Han is of course a Dynasty that claim to be a part of Zhong-Hua Culture; which is really like Roman citizenship, you can be Spanish and also Roman, like you can be you are ethnic korean but can be Hua-person.
Just to point out, Han or Tang is technically not an ethnicity as western terminology goes. The original Chinese is the people who lived between the yellow river and the Yangtze river; bordered by the east sea and the desert to the west. Everyone who say they are Han/Tang adopted the name later on.

Growing evidence of Turkey providing material support to Uyghur terrorists.
"
A lawyer for three Uyghur men found guilty of trying to join an Indonesian terrorist group is appealing the verdict, BenarNews has learned.
The appeal was filed Wednesday after consultations with Turkish officials in Jakarta, according to defense attorney Asludin Hatjani.
“The embassy of Turkey sent staff to talk with the four defendants at Brimob Headquarters a day after the verdict. They agreed to appeal and I lodged the appeal yesterday after the talks,” Asludin told BenarNews on Thursday, referring to the police’s Mobile Brigade unit (Brimob).
“Currently we are waiting for a memorandum of appeal from the High Court.”
Turkey’s involvement corroborates that his clients are Turkish, he said.
“I can confirm they are citizens of Turkey, because their documents themselves are still recognized by the embassy and the police. Even the court itself stated their nationality is Turkish,” Asludin said.
During their trial at North Jakarta District Court, the men last month could not sing the Turkish national anthem or name its title when prosecutor Nana Riana challenged them to do so.
“How is it that a citizen doesn’t know the national anthem of his own country? I’m Indonesian. My national anthem is ‘Indonesia Raya,’” Nana said in court on June10.
The men’s citizenship could determine where they are sent once the trial is over, she later told BenarNews.
“Going forward, their citizenship status may influence the extradition agreement between Indonesian officials and the government of Turkey or China,” Nana said.
“If they are not Turkish citizens, possibly the court will destroy their passports.”
Earlier, the National Counterterrorism Agency (BNPT) indicated that the four Uyghurs could be extradited to China after their trials.
…
The four are believed to have entered Indonesia using false Turkish passports via Malaysia. During an earlier court session they described taking a motorboat from Malaysia to Pekanbaru, Riau Province, on Sumatra island.
They flew to Jakarta, and visited Bogor and Bandung in Java before flying on to Makassar, in Sulawesi.
Shortly thereafter police arrested the four in Central Sulawesi province. Police said they were on their way to join the Eastern Indonesia Mujahideen (MIT), which is believed to be based in Poso regency in Central Sulawesi.
MIT is believed to have sworn allegiance to IS, and its leader Santoso – Indonesia’s most wanted terrorist – has welcomed foreign mujahideen to join the group, security officials say.
“We have no other intention but vacation,” Basit testified in court."
