Terrorist Regime in Syria Annihilates the People of Ash-Sham with Chemical Weapons after Failing to Break their Will by Using Lethal Conventional Weapons
(Translated)

Our eyes, our tears and our hearts are in shock at the scenes of the mass killing perpetrated by the criminal Ba'athist regime; the "Resistance" front against our people in Ash-Sham, using lethal chemical weapons in a desperate attempt to bring them to submission after failing to break their will and Iman using all the lethal conventional weapons.

This crime is another addition to the on-going crimes against our people in Ash-Sham, while at the same time it continues protecting the borders of the Jewish State now, as it has for nearly 40 years.

This regime, the "Resistance" front, has once again proved that it was created solely for the slaughter of the people of Ash-Sham and the protection of the Jewish State. This is exactly what it has been doing for the last 40 years.

This criminal regime has perpetrated tens of massacres at the time of the Father, the Uncle and the Son. It has not allowed shooting at the Jewish State since the 1973 War and it contained the resistance movements in order to prevent them from attacking the Jewish State.

The large Democratic States, led by America and the oppressive regimes presiding on the chests of the Muslims, are not less in criminality than the tyrant Bashar and his men, as they were the ones who gave him successive extensions to slaughter the people, and they created a nominal opposition from the revolutionaries of luxury Hotel dwellers in order to transfer the rule to another tyrant from the same regime with its loyalty guaranteed to America and the West.

This massacre serves its objectives by pressuring the people to become submissive in order to accept an American intervention and to accept its secular men and to reject the sincere revolutionaries working to get rid of the regime in its entirety and to bring the system of Islam in its place in a Khilafah "Caliphate" Rashidah upon the guidance of the Prophethood.

We in Hizb ut Tahrir, while observing the catastrophes of the people in Ash-Sham, Egypt, Palestine, and all Muslim countries, ask Allah to give Muslims ease after this time of hardship and relief after this distress. And we ask Allah to shower the martyrs of the Muslims with His Blessings, and to provide their families with patience, steadfastness and to seek reward only from Allah.

Our resolve and persistence, by the permission of Allah, is on the increase in order to continue with unwavering determination and unshaken belief until we establish the Khilafah "Caliphate" in Ash-Sham or in another country in the Muslim world so that it will avenge the people of Ash-Sham and liberate Al Aqsa and rescue Muslims and humanity from the dangers of the capitalist secularist brutal democracy. We ask Allah that this day is near.
