Mobilising the armies to fight is the only duty of the rulers in response to the massacre of Gaza. Otherwise they betray Allah, His Messenger, and the Believers.

Since Saturday afternoon 27/12/2008 Israel has been brutally bombing regions in Gaza from the air. The people of Gaza have been resisting the aggression with their bare chests, carrying their souls on their palms, in bravery that has few comparisons. Many were martyred and hundreds have been wounded. The planes of the enemy patrol the airspace in security, without the fear of being brought down by a missile or of facing an enemy plane, because the rulers in the Muslim lands have placed a 'curfew' on our armies and our aircrafts, and have made them to be only for display and decoration! Thus the planes of the yahood have free reign over Palestine as they bomb men and stones, without fear of any harm!

These rulers committed a grave sin when they transferred the issue of Palestine from being an Islamic issue to being an Arab issue and than a Palestinian one. Now they stand by as neutral spectators, nay as spectators biased to the enemy. When the enemy inclines to aggression, as in the current massacre of Gaza, these rulers monitor the intruder aircraft, prepare the dead and wounded, and then compete with one another in expressing sorrow and in condemnation of the aggression. All these rulers co-operated in the boycott of Gaza, whether silently or openly, and now they all express their sorrow and condemnation. Even the ruler of Egypt from whose castle, on the eve of the aggression, (the Israeli foreign minister) Livni threatened and promised the attack on Gaza, and on the next day the shelling and bombing of Gaza began, only for this ruler (Mubarak) to express his sorrow and condemnation towards  the aggression!

In reality these rulers have no shame, not from Allah, His Messenger صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم nor the believers. They besieged the Gaza strip before the enemy did. They wanted the people of Gaza dead, not alive; hence they refused to open the border crossings when they had the breath of life, and then agreed to open it after the people were killed. And today they call for meetings in which they will 'search' for a response to the massacre, as if the needed response is unknown! At times they call for meetings of summits, then for foreign ministers, and at times for the Arab League Council...and this is their usual habit. They meet, eat and drink, then issue a statement, and this suffices the followers of shaytaan as the 'best' fight! But that is not all. They further go, in shame and disgrace, to the Security Council, seeking a resolution for the support of Palestine from the very states who established the Jewish state and supported it in its usurpation of the blessed land of Palestine. Indeed, evil is what they judge.

The required response to the massacre of Gaza is known. It does not require meetings or gatherings for discussion. Nor is the required response to get a resolution from the states that established and supported the Jewish state. The response, and the only response, is to mobilise the armies to fight and to gather all those able as soldiers in them. This is the only response. The rulers know this but they are hollow pieces of wood propped up who have mastered the art of deception and misguidance.  The curse of Allah be on them! How they are perverted!

O Muslims,

Beware of the rulers deceiving you, such that you think a demonstration, protest or vigil which they allowed you is enough. They alone are not enough. You must push the rulers with all your power and ability to mobilise the armies to fight.

O Soldiers,

Do you not desire one of the two great things (martyrdom or victory)? How does the killing of your brothers intensify whilst you remain in your barracks? Is a ruler who has sold his deen for the world, nay for the world of others, able to prevent you for assisting you brothers?

Allah Allah O Soldiers! Hizb ut-Tahrir calls you to the honour of the world and the hereafter: victory for Allah and a near conquest, or Jannah whose width is that of the heavens and Earth, prepared for the righteous.

[قَاتِلُوهُمْ يُعَذِّبْهُمُ اللَّهُ بِأَيْدِيكُمْ وَيُخْزِهِمْ وَيَنْصُرْكُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيَشْفِ صُدُورَ قَوْمٍ مُؤْمِنِينَ]

"Fight them! Allah will chastise them at your hands, and bring them to disgrace and give you victory over them, and He will heal the breasts of a believing people." [Al-Taubah: 14]

This is how the support to the people of Gaza must be, and this is how the response to the massacre of Gaza must be, and this is how the boycott must be lifted from them, and this is how Allah will heal the breasts of a believing people.

[إِنَّ فِي هَذَا لَبَلاَغًا لِقَوْمٍ عَابِدِينَ]

"Indeed, in this there is a message for those who worship Allah." [Al-Anbiya: 106]
