They are only limited to western sources.
There's mountains of evidence for US/Israel's genocide. There is zero credible evidence for this fake one. They've even taken down the wikipedia page because it looks ridiculous an allegation in comparison.
That's just a western slur. China never used that phrasing.
Zenz was paid by the BBC to come up with these allegations. He refused. They offered him more money and then he agreed. He's open about this.
This is a man who openly states that he's been sent on a mission from god to rid the world of homosexuality and communism. Characterising criticism of his objectivity as a "smear campaign" is ludicrous.
This is basically a DoS attack on the reader. No evidence is provided in this tome of nonsense from an organisation renowned as being a revolving door for American intelligence assets.
"This report was prepared with the assistance of the Stanford Human Rights & Conflict Resolution Clinic"
The next three links are from Qatar media, well known for its bias against China. No evidence is presented. The second article refers to a dump of AI generated images provided by Zenz as its only source. The third one says the UN says something could be "potentially" happening.

Thank you for sharing your sources. There is quite a lot to unpack, so it will be some time before I can read and assess them all thoroughly.
One thing that has stuck out to me like a sore thumb was the article concerning the report from the Egyptian media delegates visiting Xinjang. The the Egyptian government is a corrupt dictatorship that is brutally oppressive towards the Egyptian people, the most recent iteration having come to power by overthrowing its first democratically elected leader via coup de d'état. They are traitors to Muslims and are antithetical to the Palestinian cause, so anything that comes from that wretched goverment or its tightly controlled media should be given almost the same level of scrutinty as any coming from Israel. The same also applies for Syria.
In some of the articles mentioning the Ughyur terrorists/extremists, the Ughyur themselves are claiming to have been radicalized by religious repression. I wonder why they feel that way.
Many of your other sources do seem credible, and the claims against Human Rights Watch are both damning and explain some of the bullshitry that has been coming from them since October. The twitter posts you linked also seem credible in that they are combating some very egregious cases of misinformation--a staple of the online age.
These are just my thoughts so far, should I remember, I'll get back to you later. Once again, thank you for sharing your sources.
