Press Release
Eradicate the Raymond Davis Network, which is Targeting our Armed Forces

Hizb ut Tahrir Wilayah Pakistan condemns the attack on two military officers, near Rawalpindi at Fatah Jang Road and prays to Allah (swt) to raise the status of martyred officers and for patience for their relatives.

On 9 May 2014, US Deputy Secretary of State William Burns asked traitors in Pakistan's political and military leadership to initiate military operations before the installation of the next puppet Afghan government. America desperately needs operations against those Mujahideen who are fighting against Americans in Afghanistan. In order to create the desired public opinion both in military and the masses for this objective, the Raymond Davis network started targeting armed forces. Is it mere coincidence that whenever America asks to initiate such operations, attacks on Pakistan's armed forces accelerate in the tribal areas particularly and across Pakistan generally? There is no one in Pakistan other then American military and intelligence officials who have the freedom to roam around our military cantonments, gaining knowledge of the movements of our military personnel. The arrest of Raymond Davis in January 2011 from Lahore and the recent arrest of the FBI agent Joel Cox from Karachi proves that traitors in the political and military leadership have provided complete freedom to terrorist Americans to carry out their campaign of blood and mayhem against Pakistan, its armed forces and people.

Today Pakistan's actual enemies are the American terrorists who are martyring our soldiers by employing covert tactics, so that America can claim that the War on Terror is our war, applying pressure to send our forces to fight those tribal Muslims who are waging Jihad against Americans inside Afghanistan. To protect our armed forces, the required operations are to seal the US embassies, consulates, bases and safe houses and expel all American diplomats, military, private military and intelligence. It is America that instigated war against our armed forces, to secure its war of occupation of this region.

As long as the American presence in shape of her embassies, consulates, diplomats, military and intelligence officials and Raymond Davis network remains in Pakistan and this region, attacks on America's behalf against our armed forces will continue to take place. Hizb ut Tahrir asks the Muslims to abolish this traitorous Raheel-Nawaz regime and establish the Khilafah "Caliphate". Only then will the Muslims be led by a Khaleefah Rashid, who will conduct the operation that is actually required, the obliteration of the poisonous American presence within Pakistan and Afghanistan. RasulAllah (saw), "إِنَّمَا الْإِمَامُ جُنَّةٌ يُقَاتَلُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ وَيُتَّقَى بِهِ" "Indeed the Imam is a shield, you fight under him and you are protected by him."
