America desecrates the Noble Quran, may Allah SWT cripple America's hands
(Translated)

America does not end its depraved ways, confirming to the entire world that she is the worst civilization known to humankind since the dawn of history. Her most recent ugly deeds are the desecration of religious books, including a large number of Noble Quran, in an offensive and dirty manner, by a group of American soldiers in the Muslim land of Afghanistan.

This action is by no means an anomaly in American behavior as witnessed all over the world. Millions have tasted the bitterness of America's actions and witnessed her ugly crimes. This is the very nature of the Americans. No code of ethics deter them, nor any religion. Instead the rotten "freedom" makes for a human civilization steeped in degeneracy, defaming each and every sacred matter and violating every honor.

 The desecration of the Noble Quran by "mercenary" Americans is a reminder of a continuous series of actions by America, the like of which humanity has never witnessed before. These actions exceed all limits and cross all moral bounds and norms. "Abu Ghraib" was not the worse of her crimes. Nor was the urination by American soldiers upon the bodies of dead Afghans not so long ago, not more than a month ago in fact. This is asides from the burning of the Quran by the American Pastor "Terry Jones" in Florida last April, 2011, which ignited the flame of Iman (Belief) in the hearts of the Afghans, who protested all over the country in condemnation, with their courage resulting in the martyrdom ten of them at the hands of the criminal occupying forces, and the wounding of dozens. And all this is asides from America's crimes in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and other countries in the world.

It is high time that the Islamic Ummah recognized that the current regimes are complicit in the crimes of America and its aggression against its sanctities., We in Hizb ut Tahrir appeal to the Ummah of Islam, especially the People of Power to put their hands in ours to uphold the word of Allah by the establishment of the Khilafah "Caliphate" state, in which al-Muslims will live in harmony in both realms, this dunya and the aakhira.

(يا أيها الذين آمنوا استجيبوا لله وللرسول إذا دعاكم لما يحييكم)

((O You who believe! answer Allâh (by obeying Him) and (His) Messenger when He () calls You to that which will give You life ...)) [8/24]
