Hizb ut-Tahrir has announced an international media conference in Beirut, Lebanon to mark the sad day of the demise of Khilafah. This is world’s largest media conference in the recent past organized by an Islamic political party which is being organized by the largest Islamic political party, Hizb ut-Tahrir. Just the literature and materials introducing the conference and video trailers has sent shockwaves in the palaces of Lebanese government and their American-French masters.

Hizb ut-Tahrir is a legal political organization in Lebanon and there is no legal justification under Lebanese law to stop this conference. Because of this reason, the Lebanese government has resorted to other cheap tactics such as refusing to grant visas to the delegates attending the conference. Lebanese embassy in Pakistan has refused visas to the distinguished politicians from Pakistan who were even carrying diplomatic passports. Moreover, visas were also refused to the top journalists of the electronic and print media and renowned writers of Pakistan. Hizb ut-Tahrir strongly condemns these lowly tactics of the agent rulers and announces to continue its non-violent political and intellectual struggle for the establishment of the Khilafah. Hizb ut-Tahrir held an international Khilafah conference in the 2007 in Indonesia in the Muslim’s world largest stadium. Around hundred thousand Muslims participated including 60,000 women.  Last year we organized an International conference in Sudan over the issue of international economic crisis, participated by over 5000 economist from all over the world. In the same year, Hizb organized International Ulema conference in Indonesia to highlight the obligation of re-establishment of the Khilafah which was attended by 6000 Ulema from around the globe. And this year preparations for global media conference in Lebanon are in full swing.  In these few years, Hizb has emerged as the only international leadership of the Ummah, fearing which, the colonialist has again resorted to banning the Hizb in different countries. In this regard, Hizb activities were banned in Bangladesh just few months ago. In response to this, Hizb ut-Tahrir announces that whatever steps these traitors ruler may take they will only strengthen the call of Khilafah and the public opinion to implement Islam in the Muslim world. And their master will neither be able to save them from the punishment for their treachery in this world nor would they have any power to help them in the hereafter.
