Hizb ut Tahrir assembles a large gathering in Tulkarem Protesting the Palestinian Authority; Resulting in Arrests, Beatings, and Erecting Barricades
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
On Saturday, 17 Jumada II 1434 AH / April 27, 2013 Hizb ut Tahrir Palestine organized a large protest in support of its members and supporters in Tulkarem to protest the arrest of 20 members last Thursday who were at a rally in support of Masjid al Aqsa. They rejected the arrogance of the Palestinian Authority (PA) in dealing with the activities of the Hizb in the province and its attempt to impose its political guardianship. After the protest, the PA's security forces arrested numerous Hizb members. Security forces arrested those who took pictures of the events; in addition; vandalized a restaurant that Hizb members fled to in the center of the city.
Hundreds gathered in protest, the spokesman of Hizb ut Tahrir stated, " Hizb ut Tahrir in Palestine has invited people to expose what isn't depicted in the Syrian Revolution that the media and the tyrant rulers try to conceal and most importantly try to hide that the fact that Muslims in the land of al-Sham support and work towards the Khilafah "Caliphate". These seminars held in the cities of the West Bank especially in the districts of Tulkarem and Jenin. The Palestinian Authority closed the halls and threatened hall owners coercing them to accept the PA's agreement. It also revealed their hatred towards Islam and the call for the Khilafah "Caliphate". Their reply was aggressive, un-restrained, and arrests were made to impose its leadership by force and oppression as what occurred on Thursday, April 25, 2013. Their aggression included use of batons and tear gas arresting nearly 20 men and many of them were minors similar to what the Jewish occupational forces do.
The spokesman denounced the security forces and when these security forces raided homes and arrested our children; when the Jewish settlers confiscate our lands and uproot trees the security forces suppress the Palestinian people and force them to accept the peace treaty and waiver the Palestinian land to the Jews.
He stressed, "the practice of this government's leadership will cause them disgrace and humiliation in this world and the Hereafter." Its greatest crime is the waiver of Palestine to the Jews, which will not go without any penalty."
Lastly, "we express that the Hizb's actions will continue and increase as long as the halls are closed before the intellectual work. We also do not accept our activities to be subjected for authorization from the PA. Our alternatives will be the courtyards streets, and public spaces. Arrests will not deter us from our work despite the oppressors of injustice and violations of our rights."
The Hizb condemns the Palestinian Authority's behavior in which they had no respect for the young and elderly. It warns the Palestinian Authority that their actions will backfire upon them and the Hizb will take its full rights.
