Press Release
We Strongly Condemn the Bombings in Istanbul and Mardin and Warn the Leaders Once Again!

June 7^th and 8^th, 16 people of whom 8 are police lost their lives and over 60 people were left wounded in the aftermath of the bombings in Istanbul Vezneciler and Mardin Midyat.

As Hizb ut Tahrir Wilayah Turkey, we condemn this vile terrorist attack which saddened countless families in this month of the Mubarak Ramadan. We pray to Allah (swt) to show mercy upon those who lost their lives in these sad incidents, swift recovery for the wounded, condolences and Sabr (patience) for the afflicted families.

While the terrorist organization PKK supported by the western colonialists, is still taking the lives of innocent citizens of Turkey’s various cities, its twin sister YPG which America trained in Syria and gave weapon support, is fighting in Syria as America’s infantry.

Even though men of state know all of this and more, Prime Minister Binali Yıldırım leaves flowers with the ambassadors of the western nations where the terrorist attack happened in Istanbul. A state should protect its citizen’s property, life, dignity, religion, honour, mind and generation. A state does not participate the perpetrators of its citizens’ murderers lament with crocodile tears.

These terrorism incidents once again displays that the colonialists are targeting the lives of our people and are shedding their blood. So the duty that falls on to the rulers of Turkey is to cut all relations with England, America, Russia and “Israel” whom are openly supporting these terrorist organizations. At one hand while terrorist organization PKK is being fought with, which is the source of these bombing attacks, and on the other hand to approve of the US to make joint operations with YPG, is insincere and flippant. This can never be agreed to!

We as Hizb ut Tahrir Wilayah Turkey once again warn you! The real perpetrators of terrorism are the colonialists. Then instead of leaving flowers with them, you should deport the representatives of the colonialists from our lands and the ambassadors who are the ringleaders of the terrorists back to their countries. Don’t let them shed more blood in these lands. For unless they don’t leave our lands the suffering of our people will not end. How many more innocent lives are going to be spilled for USA’s and England’s own global interests? How many more mothers will weep for their departed beloved ones? If you want to do something that will count, deport these barbaric terrorist that make the mothers weep and stop allying them anymore.
