| | Sobaka :: Hizb ut-Tahrir: The View from the Tajik Street |
 | | Hizb ut-Tahrir literature and "other things" are smuggled from Afghanistan, to Uzbekistan, and then to Tajikistan through the Gassur Valley, on the train tracks on which trains do not run much anymore. |
 | | All, even the fundamentalists of the Islamic Renaissance Party, rebels in the civil war here in the early 1990s, who now are mayors and governors, are persecutors, and targets, of Hizb ut-Tahrir. |
 | | The spread of the Hizb, he says, is in reaction to this ethnic divide, and because Tajiks think together only when they think of the Tajiks outside of the country - the Tajiks that live in Uzbekistan and Afghanistan (thanks to the drawing of borders many years ago). |
