Hizb ut Tahrir Britain formally launched its report ‘Afghanistan and Pakistan: The Unwinnable War' at a Press Conference in central London today. The report launch coincided with the London Conference on Afghanistan to be hosted by the British Prime Minster Gordon Brown and Hamid Karzai on Thursday 28th January.
The Palestinian Authority is becoming bolder and bolder every day and intimidating people through arbitrary arrests, threatening to cut-off ration supplies. It insists on establishing a policy on number of mouths to be fed, denies platform to those who speak the words of truth, merely in an attempt to project and promote the leaders of the Authority and to further its criminal policies and to improve its image to the West and those who serve the interests of the Jewish state.
Once again western powers are gathering to interfere in the affairs of the Muslim world and decide the fate of the Ummah. This week the colonialist powers plan to convene international conferences in London to discuss the situation in Yemen and Afghanistan. The subject of discussion is not to liberate the Muslim Ummah from the shackles of colonialism, rather it is subdue the resistive populations of these countries and preserve the interests of the colonialist powers.
This is clearly observed in the flurry of diplomatic activities taking place between the colonialist powers and leaders of the Islamic countries. For instance, on Saturday in Sana'a, US Ambassador Stephen Seche and British Ambassador Tim Torlot under the guise of cooperation and enhancing ties held separate meeting with Yemen's Undersecretary of the Foreign Ministry, Mohi al-Deen al-Dhabi. After this meeting the leaders of the Islamic countries were found busy conferring with each other how best to execute the agenda their colonialist masters have put before them. Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Abul Gheit told Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh that Egypt would provide Yemen "political, economic, and security support" at the London conference.
Afghanistan's leader Karzai is also planning to unveil America's latest agenda for afghanistan. The plan which includes training more Afghan police, talking to moderate elements of the Taliban, building Afghanistan's civilian institutions and denying sanctuary to militants will be supported by Afghanistan neighbours-Iran and Pakistan.
The flagrant interference of Western powers and the mobilization of Muslim rulers to serve their agenda from a cursory perspective paints a gloomy picture and reminds us of the words of the messenger of Allah(saw),"'The nations shall gather and team up against you (i.e., Muslims) as the predators gather and team up against their preys. A questioner asked: 'Is it because of us being low in numbers at that day?' The Prophet replied: 'No, you that day shall be in great numbers, but you will be as powerless as the foam of the water on the surface of the river, and Allah shall remove any fear from your enemies toward you, and He shall put in your hearts a corruption.' A questioner asked: 'O Apostle of Allah, what is the corruption?' The Prophet replied: 'The love of life's amusements and the fear of death.' (Translation of Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 37, Number 4297)"
However, a close examination of the events reveals that the Western powers are far from mighty and powerful. Their ever increasing reliance upon the assets of the Muslim Ummah to execute their agenda obliterates the myth that the West is too powerful to dislodge as an arbitrator of international affairs. Had not the leaders of the Muslim world placed air bases, waterways, intelligence, oil wealth, natural resources and the armies of the Ummah in the hands of the kafir colonialists-the western powers would have been unable to execute their nefarious plans and continue to dominate the Muslim world. Furthermore, the Western powers are divided and compete with each other over the resources of the Muslim world. For instance Europe's lack of support to stabilize Afghanistan has irked America for the past eight years. Yet, the leaders of the Ummah are unable to exploit these fissures and rescue the Ummah from the kafir colonialist powers. On the contrary, the rulers compete with each other strengthen the hand of their master through the pillage and bloodshed of the Ummah. The only way for the Islamic Ummah to permanently end western interference in her lands is to re-establish the Khilafah "Caliphate" Rashida. Only through the Khilafah "Caliphate" will the Ummah be able to manage her own affairs and write her own political destiny.

France accuses US of occupying Haiti:
France accused the US of "occupying" Haiti on Monday as thousands of American troops flooded into the country to take charge of aid efforts and security. The French minister in charge of humanitarian relief called on the UN to "clarify" the American role amid claims the military buildup was hampering aid efforts. Alain Joyandet admitted he had been involved in a scuffle with a US commander in the airport's control tower over the flight plan for a French evacuation flight. "This is about helping Haiti, not about occupying Haiti," Mr Joyandet said. Geneva-based charity Medecins Sans Frontieres backed his calls saying hundreds of lives were being put at risk as planes carrying vital medical supplies were being turned away by American air traffic controllers. But US commanders insisted their forces' focus was on humanitarian work and last night agreed to priorities aid arrivals to the airport over military flights, after the intervention of the UN.
US Does Not Have Capitalism Now: Stiglitz:
Layers of money managers that don't bear the brunt of losses but walk away with big payouts when things go well have turned the US economy to a type of "ersatz capitalism," Joseph Stiglitz, Columbia University professor and Nobel laureate, told CNBC Tuesday. "An awful lot of people are not managing their own money," Stiglitz said. "In old-style 19th Century capitalism, I owned my company, I made a mistake, I bore the consequences." "Today, (at) most of the big companies you have managers who, when things go well, walk off with a lot of money. When things go bad the shareholders bear the costs," he said. Even worse, those giving the money to the companies are entities like pension funds that are managing money on behalf of other people, so there are "layers and layers of agency costs," Stiglitz said. It's a system where "you socialize the losses and privatize the gains," which is not capitalism, he said. There's "moral hazard everywhere," he added
American weapons stamped with bible reference used against Muslims:
Muslim groups reacted angrily Wednesday after it emerged that the U.S. military is using combat rifle sights inscribed with coded Biblical references. Army officials have said they will investigate whether a Michigan defense contractor violated federal procurement rules by stamping references to Bible verses on the gun sights used by American forces to kill enemy fighters in Iraq and Afghanistan. The references have stoked concerns by a watch dog group about whether the inscriptions break a government rule that bars proselytizing by American troops. But military officials said the citations don't violate the ban and they won't stop using the tens of thousands of telescoping sights that have already been bought. The codes were used as "part of our faith and our belief in service to our country," Trijicon said."As long as we have men and women in danger, we will continue to do everything we can to provide them with both state-of-the-art technology and the never-ending support and prayers of a grateful nation," a company spokesman said on condition of anonymity.
London denies permission to be build the biggest Masjid in the country:
Campaigners opposed to a "super-mosque" being built next to the 2012 Olympic site today told of their delight after the scheme was blocked. The Abbey Mills mosque and Islamic centre on a 7.3 hectare site in Stratford was to house 12,000 worshippers and would have been the biggest in Europe. But Newham council in London announced it will issue an eviction notice against the Islamist group behind it, Tablighi Jamaat, which has 80 million followers worldwide. Alan Craig, a Christian Peoples' Alliance councillor, said: "I'm delighted that the council has finally seen the light on this. It's a key site for the local community that would have been lost if the mega-mosque had been built. It is a big step forward, but a lot could still happen. The mosque has faced massive opposition from the local community and religious groups. More than 48,000 people have signed a petition against the development since the sect unveiled its plans for the site in 2007.
Britain plans to use its Afghan experience to fight future wars:
The head of the Royal Navy has warned that land-locked Afghanistan is "not the only game in town" in a speech that could inflame rivalries between the services. Britain must also preserve a fleet capable of conducting far-reaching campaigns, said Admiral Sir Mark Stanhope. Gen Sir David Richards, the Army's head, had that defense needed a "radical" shift in priorities away from "hugely expensive" equipment towards getting more troops on the ground. Sir David argued that Afghanistan is a template for wars of the future but Sir Mark said Britain had to look "beyond Afghanistan" and ensure it has the flexibility to deal with future conflicts. "We need to ensure that we, as a nation, have the strategic flexibility to deal not just with Afghanistan, but also the broad range of other threats and challenges to our national interests today and in the future," he said.
India's military spending targets Pakistan and China:
India's navy has started a $1.5 billion overhaul of its ageing Soviet-era fleet of aircraft, seeking to boost its air power in an Indian Ocean region where a growing China is threatening its traditional dominance. The investment is one of the biggest the Indian navy has made in recent years and reflects New Delhi's urgency to modernize its military, a move that rival Pakistan says could spark an arms buildup and destabilize an already roiled South Asia. India plans to buy 16 new MIG-29 fighter jets, half a dozen light combat aircraft, unmanned patrol planes and multi-role helicopters. Tenders for these will be floated soon, Indian officials said. The Indian navy is also upgrading its Sea Harrier fighter jets, IL-38 maritime anti-submarine warfare planes and acquiring five Kamov KA-31 patrol helicopters."We are acquiring new fighters and helicopters to supplement a new aircraft carrier we are getting soon," Commander P.V.S. Satish, the navy spokesman said in New Delhi on Thursday. Analysts said the upgrade of the navy was long due."It is almost a matter of time before ships from China arrive in India's backyard," said Brahma Chellaney, professor of strategic studies at New Delhi's Centre for Policy Research. India and China are locked in a battle to lead Asia. New Delhi fears China is creating an arc of influence in the Indian Ocean region, bolstering claims over what has traditionally been seen as India's backyard.

On 6th Jan, 10, a convoy of US crusaders killed nine and injured 85 school children in Roodat district of Nangarhar province. The incident happened while the convoy of Kaffir US's troops entered the school under the guise of chocolates distribution and has thrown grenades followed by spraying bullets. However, to misguide the media and people, the spokesperson to the Governor of Nangarhar, announced it as a fixed IED, that has killed three and injured 30 children and three American troops.
The joint communiqué issued from Delhi yesterday (12 January 2010) after talks between Sheikh Hasina and Manmohan Singh is a declaration of surrender which demonstrates Sheikh Hasina's unashamed slavery to her masters in Delhi. The communiqué states that the two Prime Ministers agreed to put in place a ‘comprehensive framework of cooperation.' However it presents a long list of what Sheikh Hasina has agreed to with the polytheist enemy state, which can only be described as a comprehensive framework of surrender.
It was agreed that Bangladesh will allow use of Chittagong and Mongla sea ports for movement of goods to and from India through road and rail. This represents a great prize for India who would reap immense economic benefits from this while it represents a strategic danger for Bangladesh. They also agreed to one-time or longer term transportation of ODCs (Over Dimensional Cargo) from Ashuganj. This is nothing but an agreement on turning the one-time transit facility Sheikh Hasina's government had already agreed to into a permanent one in the future.
According to the communiqué Manmohan Singh and Hasina underscored the need for both countries to actively cooperate on security issues. This only means the government of Sheikh Hasina will continue the ongoing collaboration to fulfill India's security needs. We need not remind everyone of Sheikh Hasina and her government's cooperation with India in the killing of army officers in Pilkhana.
As well as this Sheikh Hasina signed agreement with India on combating international terrorism. Is Sheikh Hasina blind to how USA, Britain, India, and Israel are conducting crusader wars against Islam and the Muslims in the name of ‘combating international terrorism'? Hasina also conveyed Bangladesh's support in principle for India's candidature for the permanent membership of the UN Security Council. Does she not see how this council of terrorist nations gives legitimacy to the occupation and destruction of Muslim countries including Kashmir which India is occupying for over 50 years?
What has Sheikh Hasina got in return for her slavery? No doubt Sheikh Hasina and her regime will raise a hue and cry about her ‘successful diplomacy' and ‘political acumen' that Manmohan Singh reiterated the assurance that India would not take steps on the Tipaimukh project that would adversely impact Bangladesh. That the Prime Minister of India announced a credit of US$ 1 billion to Bangladesh for a range of projects. And that he also agreed to supply to Bangladesh 250 MW electricity from its grid. Regarding India's assurance about Tipaimukh damn the Muslims of Bangladesh have no reason to trust such empty promises after seeing decades of Indian deception on a whole host of issues. As for the issue of credit and the supply of electricity, they are not gains from ‘successful diplomacy' neither signs of ‘political acumen.' Such loans and assistance are only means of creating and extending imperialist domination over the country.
O Muslims!
The government of Sheikh Hasina was brought to power by imperialists USA, Britain and India to serve their interests and consolidate their authority over the country. And her government is working relentlessly to this end. Allah (SWT) says in the Noble Qur'an,
{... وَلَن يَجْعَلَ اللّهُ لِلْكَافِرِينَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ سَبِيلاً }النساء141
‘And Allah will never make a way for the disbelievers to have authority over the believers' [TMQ Surah An-Nisa: 141]
It is forbidden for Muslims to accept the domination of disbelievers and polytheists or remain silent about it. Hizb ut-Tahrir calls upon you to protest against the treachery of the government. And furthermore remove the traitor government and re-establish the Khilafa which will sincerely look after your interests and not those of your enemies.
