Two members of Hezb-e Tahrir arrested in Dushanbe
2003-12-16
Two members of Hezb-e Tahrir, which is banned in Tajikistan, have been arrested in Dushanbe. Literature with extremist content and over 50 copies of leaflets, which call for overthrowing the constitutional system in the country, were seized from the detainees, a source at the Tajik Security Ministry told ITAR-TASS today. The religious extremists, the purpose of whom is to set up an Islamic caliphate in Central Asia... Law-enforcement agencies have managed to bring over 200 extremists to trial since 1998, when the extremists began penetrating into Tajikistan. At the same time, the number of Hezb-e Tahrir members exceeds by several times the number of those arrested, experts think.
That's okay. Just keep jugging them and don't let them out.

#3   Can't we give these guys 100,000 sq feet of soverign territory next to the Vatican...and let them all fight over who gets to sit in the biggest chair, instead of fighting us?
Unfortunately, they've been brainwashed into believing that they have the right to take over everywhere. The Caliphate isn't limited to Central Asia - they insist that they will dominate the entire world. There are two solutions: surrender, or kill them all. I refuse to surrender.
