Uzbekistan Government's Analysis of Terrorist Group Hizb ut-Tahrir

Aaron has everything you need to know about Hizb ut-Tahrir and more this week.

Via Internet Haganah: Many European countries and Russia have already noted the negative consequences of the activity of "Hizb ut-Tahrir". Practically all republics in Central Asia have legislatively reflected the negative attitude to this organization. The reason is in propagandized "Hizb ut-Tahrir" ideology directed on overthrowing of constitutional system in these countries.

“Hizb ut-Tahrir” may be qualified as religious-political movement due to the following characteristics:

- the attitude to the authority (unequivocally negative because it (the authority) is "illegal and godless");

- aspiration of the idea of seizing power as basic strategic aim;

- presence of the program of construction of Islamic State (Khalifat);

- possession of the developed propaganda device, means of propaganda and own military wing.

Religious-extremist organization "Hizb ut-Tahrir" (literal translation of which is — "Liberation Party”) was established by Shiekh Takiitdinom Nabahony in Bayt ul-Maqdis (Syria) in 1953. Some other sources claim that the first cell of the organization was established in Jerusalem (Israel) with overall aim of reviving "Khalifat" by seizing power.
