Within the American Onslaught for Normalization and Surrender!

A New and Repeated Visit by American Envoy Ortagus to Lebanon!

In light of the American onslaught on Lebanon and the region with the project of normalization and surrender, and the US administration under Trump and his team seeking to include more rulers of Muslim countries in the Abraham Accords, the visit of American envoy Morgan Ortagus to Lebanon and the usurping Jewish entity comes loaded with political, security, and economic pressures, threats, and conditions on Lebanon, noting that this visit coincided with the visit of the Secretary-General of the Arab League and the Director of Egyptian Intelligence, seemingly to serve the same direction! America's envoy, Tom Brack, had previously stated on his X platform account what represents his administration's threats and perceptions for Lebanon and the region: (Beirut's delay will lead to a unilateral Israeli move that could be very costly...)! To complete the scene as described by Brack in the same statement: (However, the next two pieces of this peace building are still incomplete, Syria and Lebanon...)!

In the face of such visits, statements, and others, we say the following:

First: America's and its followers' interventions in Muslim countries are to serve the interests of America and the Jewish entity, not to serve our interests, especially since America is the primary supporter of the Jewish entity in politics, economy, finance, weapons, and media, openly and publicly.

Second: The envoy's visit is not a neutral visit as some may think! Rather, it comes in the context of a clear American policy in the region that supports the Jewish entity and contributes to its military and political empowerment. What the American envoy presents is nothing but an imposition of hegemony, a consolidation of dependency, and a detraction from sovereignty, which is a form of surrender and submission to the Jews, and this is what Allah forbids for the people of Islam.

Third: Accepting these dictates and signing any agreements that perpetuate foreign guardianship is a betrayal of Allah, His Messenger, the Ummah, and everyone who fought or sacrificed to remove this usurping entity from Lebanon and Palestine.

Fourth: Dealing with the Jewish entity, for the vast majority of the people of Lebanon, Muslims and non-Muslims, is a crime in the Sharia sense, even in the man-made law that the Lebanese authority adheres to, or in humanitarian law in general, especially after the criminal entity committed genocide in Gaza, which it has not and will not hesitate to do in Lebanon and other Muslim countries.

Fifth: The American campaign and onslaught on the region will not pass, and America will not succeed in its endeavor to shape the region as it wishes. If it has its project for the region, based on colonialism, plundering peoples, misleading Muslims, and even taking them out of their religion by calling for the (Abrahamic religion), then Muslims, in return, have their promised project to be manifested by Allah Almighty; the project of the Second Caliphate on the Prophetic method, which is very close, God willing. This project is what will redraw the region, and indeed the entire world, anew, in accordance with the saying of the Messenger ﷺ: "Allah showed me the earth, and I saw its east and its west, and my nation will reach what was shown to me of it," narrated by Muslim, and the Jewish entity will be eliminated as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ foretold in his hadith: "The Hour will not come until the Muslims fight the Jews, and the Muslims will kill them..." Agreed upon.

In conclusion, Hizb ut-Tahrir/ Wilayah Lebanon continues to adopt the repelling of America's campaign and onslaught with normalization and surrender on Lebanon and the region, and nothing will deter it from that. We warn the Lebanese authority against following the path of normalization and surrender! We call on it to seek refuge in its people to confront this, and not to manipulate the matter under the pretext of borders, reconstruction, or the influence of the international system, ﴿And Allah is predominant over His affair, but most people do not know.﴾.
