| 2007-11-27 |
Ma'an - The Governor of Hebron on Monday banned a Hizb Ut-Tahrir demonstration against Annapolis, due to be held on Tuesday to coincide with the start of the US-sponsored conference. Hussein Al-Araj told Ma'an's correspondent, "I didn't give them a permit. We will stop them from doing any demonstrating because the situation here is that we don't want to create a problem or clashes between those who are for Annapolis and those who are against it."Hizb Ut-Tahrir is a worldwide pan-Islamist movement that is calling for all Muslim states to be united under one caliphate. The party has a large following across the West Bank and the Gaza Strip and is the largest political party in Hebron. |
