UK to Prosecute Palestine Supporters as Terrorists
The UK Home Office, under Home Secretary James Cleverly, has announced the decision to designate Hizb ut-Tahrir as a terrorist organization, criminalizing membership and support for the group. This decision comes in light of Hizb ut-Tahrir’s alleged encouragement of Hamas’s attacks, which Cleverly states are contrary to British values. The ministry condemns the organization’s anti-Semitic ideology and the incitement of Hamas’s illegal attacks.
