Press Release
Why Are the Muslim Military Commanders Meeting with the Enemy’s Military Commanders?
(Translated)

In recent days, media outlets have revealed a secret, closed-door meeting between the military chiefs of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Jordan, and Egypt, along with the commander of U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), Admiral Brad Cooper, and the Chief of Staff of the Jewish entity, Eyal Zamir, according to the Axios news website. The meeting took place in Germany without the knowledge of the German Ministry of Defense.

According to Axios, Admiral Cooper reassured the participating countries that the U.S. military would not withdraw its forces from the region despite Iranian attacks targeting U.S. bases there. He also briefed the meeting participants on the U.S. plan to expand shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. An official of the Jewish entity stated that General Eyal Zamir briefed the participants on his entity's military operations on various fronts. According to a statement released by U.S. Central Command, the leaders discussed opportunities to strengthen security cooperation in the Middle East.
In light of this heinous act by our military leaders, the Central Media Office of Hizb ut Tahrir clarifies the following:

First, the Ummah expected these commanders to convene and address the treachery of their rulers and their collusion with the enemies of the Ummah, so that they might decide to depose them and pledge bayah (allegiance) to a single Khaleefah (Caliph) for the Muslims. However, they followed in the footsteps of their rulers in betrayal and conspiracy against the Ummah, meeting with the Chief of Staff of the Jews, whose hands are still stained with the blood of Muslims in Palestine, Lebanon, and Syria. They also met with the commander of the American Central Command, the killers of Muslims in Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, and Iran. By Allah, this is truly a grave matter!

Second: America's actions in Muslim countries aim to consolidate its control over them, extend its influence over their strategic locations, and expel its traditional European rivals from them. In this plan, it uses these military leaders as mere tools to implement its policies, just as it does with the Ruwaybidha (insignificant ignorant rulers).

Third: America aims to integrate the Jewish entity into the region's security system. Those leaders listened to the Jewish entity's chief of staff explain his pariah entity's operations on various fronts, as if these operations were taking place in some faraway land and not in their own! If any of them possessed even a shred of shame, they would not have agreed to sit in that meeting, which, from America's perspective, strengthens security cooperation.

The Central Media Office of Hizb ut Tahrir warns those leaders, and all military chiefs in the Muslim lands, and all who conspire against the Ummah with its enemies and participate in its treachery, and all who remain silent about the treachery of the Ruwaybidha of the consequences of their betrayals in this world and the Hereafter. So, O military leaders, reconsider your actions, hasten to return to the ranks of the Ummah and repent to Allah (swt), and hasten to convene to depose those Ruwaybidha and pledge allegiance to a single Caliph who will unite the Ummah under the Khilafah Rashidah (rightly guided Caliphate), on the method of the Prophethood. Hizb ut Tahrir, the pioneer who does not lie to its people, extends its hand to every sincere member of the Ummah and its leaders to support it in establishing the Khilafah on the method of the Prophethood. In this lies the glory of this world and the Hereafter, and the greatest pleasure of Allah.
