Hizb ut-Tahrir organized public speeches after Jummah prayers today, outside various mosques across Dhaka, Chittagong and Sylhet where speakers said the kufr democratic system of the Awami-BNP rulers is nothing other than rule of the imperialists, by the imperialists and for the imperialists. The speakers referred to the government's deal with US energy giant ConocoPhillips on 16th June and the government's action of humiliating the country's military by making them salute the Indian Army chief on 22nd June, saying these two events of this week highlight the extent of control the disbelievers and polytheist states exercise over the Awami-BNP rulers. Indeed the oft-repeated statement of the US-British-Indian agent, killer of the army officers, Sheikh Hasina that, "I could not come to power in 2001 general elections because I did not agree to pledge the resources of the country to foreign companies" demonstrates the cruel reality of the democratic system. Hasina is openly and shamelessly proclaiming that the imperialists dominate the political process of country, to the point of deciding the outcome of the so-called democratic elections! So it can be said that the deal with ConocoPhillips means that this time Hasina did agree to pledge the resources of the country to foreign companies. Indeed Hasina has done worse than this - she has agreed to pledge the security of the country to crusader America and mushrik India; thus in just over 2 years of her government she collaborated with India in the killing of army officers, made the country a Forward Operating Base (FOB) for the US military's pacific command (USPACOM), allowed US military to hold 7 ‘Tiger Shark' exercises, and has now disgraced the officers of the Muslim Army of Bangladesh by making them salute the chief of the Mushrik Army.
The speakers elaborated some of steps needed to end the imperialist domination over the Muslims and start the march towards regaining the Ummah's position as the world's number on state:

• Removing the borders between Muslims and unifying the Ummah under one flag and banner i.e. one state;
• Building a strong unified Muslim Army such that the Muslim officers and soldiers from Morocco to Indonesia march under one leadership; and
• Utilizing Muslim Ummah's manpower, resources and industries to construct a huge, industrialized, developed economy.

It will only be possible for the Ummah to take these concrete and realistic steps, alongside many others, under the leadership of the Islamic Khilafah "Caliphate" state.
