""Are you, or have you ever been a member of Hizb-ut-Tahrir?" Since London’s 7/7, the equivalent of a McCarthy-era “House Committee on Un-Islamic Activities” will have met in thousands of Muslim households across Britain as parents of young people confront those of their offspring who spend long hours evangelising for the militant Islamist party Hizb-ut-Tahrir. Many of these parents, asked what they think of Tony Blair's proposed legal ban, are likely to wonder what took the British prime minister so long. The same goes for the National Union of Students, trustees of Britain's mosques, and governing bodies of schools – all of which banned Hizb-ut-Tahrir from operating under their jurisdiction some years ago.
