UK MUSLIMS TO GATHER IN LONDON TO DENOUNCE SAVAGE GENOCIDE IN FALLUJAH
London, UK, November 9 – On one of the most important dates in Ramadhan, Muslims will gather at London’s Regent’s Park Mosque this evening to denounce the savage genocide being perpetrated against the Muslims of Fallujah by western militant democracies and their latest footstool, Iyad Allawi. Had Fallujah been any European city the world would have immediately cried genocide and moved to halt the massacre. Instead, we find western thinkers and politicians, who are ardent practitioners of human rights and international law, silent at the brutal slaughter of civilians.
The gathering has been organised by the global Islamic political party, Hizb ut-Tahrir Britain, in conjunction with the Muslim community. Thousands of worshippers will hear speeches urging them to raise their voices against the Fallujah massacre, the occupation of Iraq and the rulers of the Muslim world who have blindly submitted to the Anglo-American colonial designs and butchery of Iraq’s Muslims.
Dr Imran Waheed, the Representative of Hizb ut-Tahrir in Britain, said, “At this time, Muslims in Britain must be the voice of the Muslims of Fallujah against this brutal genocide and the silence of the spineless rulers of the Muslim world. The re-establishment of the Islamic Khilafah will end subservience to foreign colonialist powers and unify the armies and resources of the Muslim world into a single state.”<br>
“By labelling resistance to occupation as terrorism and insurgency, western governments are selling their people a lie. Muslims in Britain call upon the people of the West to question the militancy of western foreign policy across the globe and the continued interference of their governments in the Muslim world.”
Evening prayers will take place at 7.00 p.m. at the Islamic Cultural Centre [Regent’s Park Mosque]. The prayers will be followed by speeches by members of Hizb ut-Tahrir, who will also be holding stalls and distributing literature throughout the mosque, exposing the true motives of the assault on Fallujah.

Hizb ut-Tahrir is an independent Islamic political party. The party works throughout the Islamic world to resume the Islamic way of life by re-establishing the Islamic Khilafah [Caliphate]. The party adheres to Islamic law in all aspects of its work and considers violence or armed struggle against the regime, as a method to re-establish the Islamic State, to be forbidden by Islamic law. In the Western world, the party seeks to explain the Islamic ideology to Muslims, to create a dialogue with Western thinkers and to present a positive image of Islam to Western society.
