Press Release
Enough Generalization, Concealment, and Underestimation
(Who is the Head of Terrorism in Tunisia?)
(Translated)

There are many pressing pending questions, and the government chooses to bolt ahead.

Who arranged these assassinations? Who killed the soldiers and guards? Who killed masses of tourists time and time again? Then, who scored an absolute and immediate benefit from terrorism? Who easily set the situation after another and the stage after another? Which side provides a safe haven for terrorism in Tunisia? Why were the major arbitrators terminated through unknown conditions? Why does the administration line that uncovers the whole truth always interjected? What are the government’s answers to the hundreds of perplexing questions asked by numerous security members and the experts? Why was Chief Staff of the Army, Mr. Mohamad As-Saleh Al-Hamidi, removed from that termination coup? How were many politicians and journalists been allowed then to mock and insult him while he was in his sensitive post while holding the respect of the military department? Afterwards, didn’t Mr. Nabil Al-Qarawi, the owner of Nasma Channel, say that some of the politicians said before the revolt against the first amendment “that even if 20,000 Tunisians died it doesn’t matter”? Then, how could this miraculous “smart” terrorism revive from rotten bones a group of politicians left over time? The question was directed to them and they were held accountable instead later on they became the questioners, the accountants, the managers, and the advisors? In other words, how did terrorism serve the coup and the putsches? How were passports given to terrorists and media conferences were held about them inside the Ministry of Interior Affairs itself and then were allowed to leave safe and sound meanwhile these passports deny entrance to thousands of regular people nowadays? Then, why does terrorism become an ogre granting excuses to the government to bring back any dictatorship means necessary in no time via severely oppressive procedures, frightening and exceptional laws, and international coalitions (with NATO being the worst) which are beyond the country’s ability and are against the rules of the Great Islam with regards to the maintenance of the country, the people, and the Ummah? In other words, how did the internationalization of the terrorism issue happen in Tunisia to allow the Western countries to question the security members, the military staff, and the judges who are the children of the country, conducting lengthy tough investigations with them? How did the internationalization become total enemies with neighboring country Libya and the even closer neighboring country Algeria, while both are originally in unison with us, since we are all as one whole body, and any talk opposite to this is falsehood, and every procedure against this is a crime?

We say to the government: Enough concealment and bolting … enough confining terrorism into being merely tools and methods, as we know them: “Terrorists… Extremists… Smugglers… Salafis… Wreckers… Bearded Men…” As all of these have been made and molded in wet clay, but we want the real perpetrator, mastermind, and the real instigator of terrorism.

People except by few no longer mention who has led Tunisia into terrorism in order to hamper an honorable revolution. Who cast the title of terrorism upon Tunisia in a regional frightening context similar to the precursors of colonialism which is not less frightening as the new frightening situation with Algeria? Who silenced with terrorism a mass people movement asking for its lost rights and asking where are the looted resources of the country, and it is a movement that is about to bash into the heads of corruption?

We invite everyone to awaken, to never forget, to be tough in accounting, to refuse from detouring from this sensitive topic; as no one is above the truth, and the blood that was shed has rights to its people, for the country, and for the Ummah, and the first right is to uncover the whole truth. Everyone should know that whatever was built on falsehood is falsehood. Isn’t there amongst us a sane person to turn the table against those gambling with Tunisia and underestimating the people, their resources, and their army?

We hold the people of Al-Khadraa with the highest of consideration.
