O Rulers! Why Are You Still Expecting Help from the Western Civilization Even Though They are Throwing it Onto the Shore!!!
(Translated)

On Wednesday morning, 2^nd of September, 2015, the bodies of two boys from Syria were found lying on the coast of Mugla. Also, the mother of the brothers (Aylan, age 3 years, and Ghalib, age 5 years) drowned in the same sea. This painful incident grabbed the attention of all the Turkish and international media after which the rulers of the Western countries expressed their feelings of "embarrassment" and shed tears over this incident. These statements are enough to reveal how unjust the Western civilization is, because the tears that they have shed are merely crocodile tears, as the real reason behind these death incidents is the West itself which brought nothing to humanity until this day except injustice and calamities. Besides this being a painful incident is the most recent picture which tosses the corruption of their systems onto the shore, by which the hands of the Western rulers are still stained with the blood of the Syrian children who have been killed by the explosive barrels and chemical weapons. The Muslims fleeing from the attacks of Assad's regime and America's bombs are drowning in the seas whilst looking for a safe shore to seek refuge in. As for the Western rulers, just as they are standing by Bashar and not doing anything, they are also watching the journey of death with their arms folded. So, what else is expected from them?

As for the rulers of the Muslims who are loyal to the West who are not different from them, and who ran to join the congregation of the abusers of the Prophet (saw) in Paris, as they, the League of the Arab States, and the Organization of the Islamic Conference are sufficed in remaining silent in front of this incident as usual.

This is the same with Turkey, as President Erdogan stated in an interview with CNN that he felt devastated upon seeing the picture of the three year old. When the CNN reporter addresses him a question about who is responsible for this, Erdogan replied, "The whole Western world is to be blamed in my opinion on this issue." As for the Prime Minister Davutoğlu, he said in a written statement: "The death of Aylan and others is the result of meetings in capital cities and "cold Brussels rooms.... The loser is the whole of humanity and the international community for failing to do its share." As for the sad part, it is that the day both statements were made, the newly established government accepted to pass negotiations via parliament to authorize American soldiers and other foreigners, which will drench the Muslim countries in blood, to stay in Turkey.

Firstly, we, in Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah Turkey, ask Allah (swt) to have mercy on the brothers (Aylan and Ghalib) and their mother in specific, and the rest of the missing people and victims of the journeys of death which they are crossing desperately. May Allah (swt) grant patience to their families and keep them steadfast. After that, we address the rulers and say:

O Rulers! Since when did the lives of the Muslims and their properties are left under the protection and mercy of the Kuffar? Which era from the eras of the Muslims Khulafah throughout history ask for help from the Kuffar in order to secure the safety of the Muslims and protect them? Don't you see what the Western civilization throws to the shore? Why are you still asking for help from them? How could you forget thousands of children which were orphaned by what America and Britain caused in Iraq and Afghanistan? How could you forget what France did in Algeria and Mali, and Italy in Libya? Did this not cross your mind? Then, why are you still waiting for help from the West and its rotten civilization?

O Rulers! From one side you are pointing at the West as if it is guilty for the incident of the children's drowning, but from another side you have announced on the same day the negotiations for the Western soldiers and the Americans to bomb the Syrian and Iraqi people via your land. From one side you are complaining about the International Community, and from another side you are opening to America and NATO your air bases and take part with their slaughters and crimes. What is this horrible hypocrisy! What kind of statesmen are you? What is this leadership? The Muslim Khulafah have sent armies that had no end in response to the crying of a Muslim woman. As for you, you have built refugee tents and concentration camps that have no end, and you even complain about them to the West. You have even taken pride in having your army men and airplanes participate in the coalition operations with America. Is this your understanding of justice? Is this your political depth? Is this the meaning of a great nation to you? Come on; confess who you really stand by and who you stand against?!
