Official Chinese Media Blames Nairobi Mall Attack on Western "Double Standards"

Says War on Terror has prompted terror attacks

China's official media are blaming the US and Western "double standards" for a "horrific" attack on a shopping complex in Kenya.

"The Western war on terror has set off more terrorist attacks and made them spread like a cancer cell. The West has just built a 'safety dyke' for itself, while allowing terrorism to spread beyond its dyke," says the Beijing-based Global Times.

"The West even adopts double standards against terrorism. Some Western countries are giving overt or covert support to terrorists to disliked countries," the newspaper adds.
