This is a question that comes to mind as David Cameron arrogantly strolls down Tahrir Square, where the blood of the Shuhadaa’ was spilled, and where the chants of protesters soared to the highest skies.
It is common knowledge that Egypt and other Muslim countries were first ruled directly through military occupation by the United Kingdom in its former glory. This led the common masses to openly revolt against their occupiers several decades ago.
After being shaken by the fear that Muslims might overthrow the Western tyrants, they rode the wave of protest underhandedly altering the presence of their military occupation through agents calling behind the guise of democracy and secularism. They gave the newly-forged countries flags to wave around in the presence of their dictators. They also gave them an “Independence Day” complete with fireworks and parades. But what does this Independence Day symbolize? They removed the direct military occupiers and installed a false sense of democracy through dictators. All the while, western regimes remain intact dictating commands to their agent rulers, that are applied via lethal force, well known to the citizens who bear the dire consequences of torture-filled prisons and death. The agent rulers defiantly ruled against their own people sacrificing their land and blood for the interests of the West.
Alhamdulillah the time has come when the masses have awakened to reject openly and defiantly their agent-rulers in broad daylight persevering throughout times of distress leading many to their death. May Allah سبحانه وتعالى grant them the ranks of Hadrat Hamza (ra).
Cameron boasts of being the first western leader to walk down Tahrir Square throwing statements to the press like, “What is so refreshing about what’s been happening is that this is not an Islamist revolt…This is not extremists on the streets,” Cameron said.
If millions of people call for Islam then they are deemed as “extremists” by the West not as people wanting free sovereignty from their agent rulers. What is so refreshing about that, Mr. Cameron?
“This is a great opportunity for us to go and talk to those currently running Egypt to make sure this really is a genuine transition from military rule to civilian rule, and see what friendly countries like Britain and others in Europe can do to help,” Cameron said.
What is your great opportunity here, Mr. Cameron? What is the help you intend to offer Egypt? More agent rulers??? More secret deals to conspire against the sincerest of people??? Is this another wave the West intends to surf? Is it one of liberty, freedom and justice for all? The people are Muslim so it is natural for them to want Islam to be applied upon them. Muslims do not want Qadafi or Mubarak style democracy or Abu-Ghraib or Gitmo democracy. Do not fool Muslims with your chameleon skins of dictatorship to democracy. Do not barge into Muslim lands and force your false system of democracy and liberalism on the Muslim people. They do not want this corrupt system. No indeed this is not what they are revolting for despite the western commentary.
All the while, western leaders are revealing their innate fear of Islam’s return. The people of Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, and Libya realize that their agent rulers’ aims and desires do not match the aims and desires of the populations. These Muslims earnestly call for Islam to return and to be applied. They want the constant vivid nightmares to stop, and to finally feel tranquility and security in their lives and lands.
The West fully realizes the great impact of what the system of Islam entails. If Muslims revert to Islam they will be united as one mighty people or Ummah. This will then be the beginning of their end. Britain realizes the importance of the Middle East as it is their main source of interest and therefore needs to be protected at all costs. Egypt holds a unique position central to the UK‘s economy while holding political interests as well. They carefully monitor all actions so as not to disrupt this critical balance. Egypt is strategically placed on the world map, thus emphasizing its important role in the Middle East. The West quickly reverberated after Mubarak’s toppling that Egypt will continue to uphold all peace treaties and agreements made under his regime. They do not want the status quo to change-this is Cameron and his fellow allies’ first priority in their agendas.
One thing is for sure, while Cameron visited Egypt sitting down with the interim government, he is quickly trying to seize the opportunity of the present situation, by allowing Britain to get its foot in the door. While there is still a space between the millions of people and the government, it will try to interfere in government reform. InshAllah it will not deceitfully ride the wave again as it has done before in history. The Muslim people have recognized the Western ploys against Muslim lands and their agent rulers suppressing the people’s desire for Islam to be their guiding light out of this miserable darkness that has plagued them for decades. InshAllah, the Muslims will soon experience a true Independence Day marked with a new flag bearing “La ilaha illal-Allah Muhammad rasool al-Allah.” An Islamic State where Muslims and non-Muslims alike will experience the justice of a great ruler.
