Establish Khilafah End American Raj Raheel-Nawaz Regime is Declaring Jihad as Terrorism on American Instructions

On American instructions, Raheel-Nawaz regime has declared Jihad against American forces as terrorism. Pakistan's Interior Minister, Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan issued a statement during his stay in London and praised the speech of US president Obama delivered in Washington. Nisar said, "We need to close ranks behind the message of President Obama to strengthen international unity against terrorism". And then in the same breath he also said that "There were no incidents of terrorism and suicide bombings before 9/11".

America has used the 9/11 incident as an excuse and launched an open war against Islam and Muslims all over the world because after the fall of communism Islam is the only true ideology which has the capability to uproot capitalism. Former US President George Bush Junior's declaration of this war as a crusade is enough proof that the actual target of US foreign policy is Islam and Muslims as we see that only Muslim countries are being attacked in this war. But the term crusade created strong resentment amongst the Muslim masses so America was forced to use another term "Terrorism".

America knows that it does not have any reason to fight this war therefore it describes Muslim insurgencies against its attacks and occupation of Muslim lands as terrorism and uses the pretext of fighting "terrorism" to execute it war against Islam and Muslims. According to Islam, fighting against US crusading forces is Jihad. Knowing this reality US took a political initiative and started international conferences to declare Muslim insurgencies as terrorism and force Muslims to abandon Islam and Jihad. This initiative resulted in an international gathering on 19th February in Washington where a conference held under the title of "Countering Violent Extremism" was held in which sixty countries participated. In order to achieve its objective the US ordered its agents, the Muslim rulers, to start holding conferences as follow up of the Washington conference and the first conference of this sequence was held in Makkah on 22nd February under the title of "Islam and Counter Terrorism".

The Raheel-Nawaz regime is declaring Jihad as terrorism on the instructions of its masters sitting in Washington. Therefore we see that rulers started to say that from now on there will be no discrimination between good or bad Talban. In accordance with this policy statement, the regime promulgated the National Action Plan which is infact US Action Plan. Under this plan during the last two months almost twenty thousand people have been arrested although government only declared nearly six hundred people as "terrorists."

Hizb ut Tahrir reminds these traitor rulers that the Ummah knows the difference between those waging Jihad and the misguided miscreants and criminals killing innocent people. Any effort from the rulers to declare Jihad as "terrorism" will only bring disgrace to them in this world and hereafter. InshaAllah Jihad will continue against Kufr forces till the Day of Judgment and this Ummah will never abandon Islam and its highest peak Jihad.

[وَقَاتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّىٰ لاَ تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ وَيَكُونَ ٱلدِّينُ للَّهِ]

"And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah) and (all and every kind of) worship is for Allah (Alone)." [Al Baqarah: 193]
