London, UK. 14th April 2018. Hizb Ut-Tahrir Britain protest opposite the Turkish Embassy against Turkish complicity in handing Syria back to Assad in accordance with colonial interests. Their criticism of Turkey goes back to the 1922 abolition of the Ottoman state and the Turkish recognition of the Zionist occupation of Palestine in 1949, and accuse President Erdogan of strengthening Turkish military and economic ties with Israel. They claim the Turkish state is a secular state "whose role is to protect the colonialist’s interests in our lands, defending and strengthening our enemies who murder us in Syria and Palestine" and call on "Muslims to join us to STAND, STRUGGLE AND SACRIFICE FOR PALESTINE." The protest was on 27th Rajab in the Islamic calendar, the night when the Prophet made a night journey to al-Aqsa (Jerusalem) and called on Muslims to support the brave people of Palestine who "are raising their voices to speak out and protest against the illegal occupation, as they are mercilessly killed by the Zionist regime." They call of a restoration of what Sunni Muslims call the Khilafah Rashidah, the "Righly Guided" rule of the four caliphs who succeeded the Prophet in a 30 year reign when Muslim armies conquered much of the Middle East.
