Why Are You Afraid of Standing Up Against the Colonialists who Ignited the Fire of Terrorism?
On 17th of August, Wednesday, in Van’s Ipekyolu district and on 18th of August, Thursday, in Elazig’s Central Police Station, also on the same day in Bitlis’s Hizan district terrorist attacks happened. In these vile (terrorist) attacks that happened in these three cities 12 people died, whom 9 are police officers and 3 are civilians, and 248 people wounded. Prime Minister Binali Yildirim stated these, on the attack on Elazig: “Apparently (terrorist) organisations are side by side and are cooperating with each other. After the FETÖ (terrorist) organisation’s defeat they have ended their objective and have handed the objective to PKK. The mind behind these is same.” Yildirim also used these statements about PKK: “There is nothing native or national about them… At this point the (terrorist) organisation’s chain of command has been broken, the groups within are making suicide attacks wherever they can.”
We, as Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah Turkey, once more condemn these vile attacks like the ones before. We wish for forgiveness from Allah for those who died in the attacks and swift recovery for our wounded brothers and sisters. We want to share these warnings and reminders we made to the government, to the public:
1- The July 15 coup attempt has exposed the dirty plans of the colonialist powers on Turkey. At the same time this coup attempt has exposed their native co-operator’s enmity against our people. Despite all this, you, as the government, have not spoken up against the foreign powers behind the coup. You have continued your friendship with them by using the international status-quo as excuse. Now these colonialist foreign powers continue to (terrorise) our country through their subcontractors. The mind behind these subcontractors are the colonialists. Then aren’t you going to take action against these colonialists who you refer as over minds? Aren’t you going to deport their ambassadors here? Aren’t you going to at least make a warning to them that would show them their place?
2- These subcontractors that make almost every day a bombed attack on our cities are getting their orders from their colonialist masters. The colonialist US and England are on the top of their chain of command. These two countries are in conflict because of their colonial interests in Turkey. Enough! Stop saying after every attack that the perpetrators will be caught and that they will pay for it! The real perpetrators are the colonialist Kuffar Westerners who are our eternal enemies. Then do something about the real perpetrators! But of course they are your allies. Though the ones you see as allies are the open enemies of Islam and the Muslims!
Lastly we call upon the people and say:
O Muslims! The colonialist Kuffar has given Islam the biggest blow/coup by abolishing the Khilafah. Since that day coups, (terrorism), chaos and massacres has not left these lands. For the colonialist west has coiled itself upon us. Rise, because you are an honourable and courageous Ummah. Work for a powerful and mighty new state. That state is Islam’s and the Muslims state. That state is the second Khilafah Rashidah (Caliphate) upon the method of the Prophethood.
