Press release responding to Western-led airstrikes on Yemen:

“O Muslims: We call on you to realize that our enemy, the Kafir West, has come with its ideas, its armies, and its agents to strike the Ummah. We also call on the armies to move to support Islam and to respond to Allah’s command to establish the Islamic state, implement the Shariah of Allah, reject the Kuffar, their ideas, and their method, and eliminate them. This is the radical solution and the earth-shattering response to the hegemony of the Kuffar, so the inhabitants of the earth and heavens will be satisfied with us.”“The War Mongering Kuffar, Britain and America, are Rampaging in our Country and Launching Strikes on Yemen!,” Hizb ut-Tahrir Media Office, January 14, 2024, https://www.hizb-ut-tahrir.info/en/index.php/press-releases/yemen/25652.html.

Extremists: Their Words. Their Actions.

Fact:

On October 7, 2023, Hamas invaded southern Israel where, in the space of eight hours, hundreds of armed terrorists perpetrated mass crimes of brutality, rape, and torture against men, women and children. In the biggest attack on Jewish life in a single day since the Holocaust, 1,200 were killed, and 251 were taken hostage into Gaza—where 101 remain. One year on, antisemitic incidents have increased by record numbers.
