Hizb ut-Tahrir America (HTA)〔http://shariahthethreat.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Shariah-The-Threat-to-America-Team-B-Report-Web-09292010.pdf〕 ((アラビア語:حزب التحرير في أمريكا)),which means "party of liberation", is a separate, but linked entity to the international pan-Islamic organization that seeks to establish a global caliphate governed under Shariah law. Under this caliphate, members work toward uniting all Islamic countries as well as transforming secular, host countries into Islamic states. Hizb ut-Tahrir America's goals are the same as the global organization – the installation and implementation of Shariah law as the sole source of law. Hizb ut-Tahrir has chapters throughout the world which have caused a variety of security concerns leading to an outright ban of the organization from operating legally within several host countries. Some countries include Bangladesh, Egypt, England, Germany, Russia, Turkey and several other Arab countries. Furthermore, as a result of Hizb ut-Tahrir’s activities, the organization has undergone close scrutiny by countries like Australia, Azerbaijan, China, Denmark, Kazakhstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. England is home to one of the more successful chapters with some pointing to this chapter as a potential model for the U.S. chapter and its activities.〔 ==Chapter History== Initially, the group struggled to find an identity and, more importantly, recruits. However, the group managed to keep recruitment to levels able to sustain the organization’s existence. While other HT groups around the world have expanded quickly, HTA has taken roughly two decades to establish a concrete presence within the U.S. The group is still wary of outsiders, however, wide use of the internet is now used for recruiting and spreading their message. Reasons for impotent beginnings are attributed to their founders’ paranoid mentality regarding possible Western “spies” and their suspicion of the internet. This state of mind appeared unnecessary to targeted Muslim recruits who found their paranoia unattractive and strange. However, after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, HTA’s paranoid behavior seemed to justify itself after many Muslims felt unjust scrutiny over the terrorist attacks. HTA suspicion of the internet waned once they realized the large advantage in propagating their message via the World Wide Web. Also, it is thought that new, younger membership helped push the organization in this direction. While membership has grown, HTA is still very secretive in regards to its activities and membership. Those who attempt to learn more about the group are quickly confronted in an effort to stifle any knowledgeable discovery. If the HTA name is mentioned in the public realm, it must be done on their terms and conditions; those who attempt to highlight their existence are swiftly countered. Iyad Hilal began HTA activities in California, in the early 1990s.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hizb ut-Tahrir In America: Preaching Hate, Building A Caliphate )〕 Despite HTA presence in the country for over two decades, the group’s membership size is unknown, however, it is believed that HTA membership has reached several thousand throughout the U.S. and is growing. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hizb ut-Tahrir America」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
