For the people of Pakistan the last sixty years have been like a recurring nightmare. They have seen dictatorship before, secular democracy before, external interference and corruption before. Yet the same continued cycle of democracy, corruption, dictatorship and foreign interference continues to ravage the country. Many in western capitals, as well as those who currently head the country, see Pakistan as part of the wider ‘war on terror’. Yet, ironically for a war that claims to concern itself with ending terror, it has brought death and destruction to thousands of people in the North West Frontier of Pakistan, FATA, Balochistan, Afghanistan, and has fuelled “terror” throughout the world.

Musharraf sheds more blood at Lal Masjid, to show his secular credentials in a desperate attempt to secure his own position
“If they do not surrender so I am saying here today that they will be
killed. They should not force us to use force. They should come out
voluntarily; otherwise they will be killed…”
This was a typically ruthless statement from General
Pervez Musharraf, the brutal dictator of Pakistan and a key ally of
western governments in their war on terror, regarding the Lal Masjid
massacre in Pakistan. Following this statement, hundreds were killed by
his forces, many burnt beyond recognition. This type of thuggish
language and force has become common place against any internal
opposition he cannot control. As one political commentator said, "He
puffs his chest out against his fellow Pakistanis, but cowers when his
masters from the US give him orders."

 A REPORT BY HIZB UT-TAHRIR BRITAIN – JULY 2007
Download the report here
Executive Summary
The Muslim community in Britain has been under a continuous spotlight
since the events of 9/11 and 7/7 in particular. The bombings triggered
a wide-ranging debate that sought to understand the processes at work
within the Muslim community, map its changes, scrutinise the influences
it is subject to and identify events in its recent history that may
explain why Muslim British citizens would want to turn on Britain.

 Four years after the invasion of Iraq. Hizb ut-Tahrir report released a report entitled "Iraq: A New Way Forward", which was widely circulated amongst thinkers, academics, journalists, columnists, politicians and think tanks.
The report comprehensively refutes the false justifications for the continued foreign intervention in Iraq - including the need for foreign forces to referee Iraq's sectarian conflict, the idea that more chaos would arise if troops left and the notion that Western governments have the moral authority for nation building. The report also argues that "any discussion of withdrawal from only Iraq will not serve to end the legacy of Western colonialism in the Middle East" because "for the long term stability of the region it is essential that foreign troops withdraw from the entire region, for their meddling has led to almost a century of tyrannical rule, brutal occupation and instability."
The report advocates the withdrawal of all foreign military personnel in Iraq and the wider region, an end to the West's support of dictatorial leaders in the region, allowing the Muslim world to decide its own political destiny without interference, freeing the region's vast energy reserves from the control of monarchies and multinationals, recognition of the illegality of the occupation of Palestine and an end to double standards over nuclear power in the region.

Criminalising political dissent in the name of 'glorifying terror'
On the 12th October 2005 the Home Secretary presented the government’s proposed anti-terrorism bill to
Parliament. Though rightly significant attention has been given to the proposed extension of questioning
without charge from fourteen days to ninety days, other parts of the bill are equally chilling and coercive.
Within the bill under clause 1, a new offence is proposed one of ‘glorifying terrorism’, which also constitutes the criteria for the government’s intention to widen the grounds for proscribing organisations.
Hizb ut-Tahrir Britain refutes the proposal and illustrates through this dossier how they are aimed at criminalising Muslim political activism.
