“Hizb ut-Tahrir America Conference Update: HTA Books Grand Ballroom at Chicago Area Hilton”
By Madeleine Gruen
snippet: “Hizb ut-Tahrir America (HTA) has booked the Hilton in Oak Lawn, IL for the “Fall of Capitalism & Rise of Islam” conference, according to an update on their Khilafah Conference web site. HTA was forced to find another venue at which to hold their conference after the original venue, the Aqsa School in Bridgeview, Illinois canceled. The Aqsa School’s business manager told a CBS News reporter that the representatives of HTA had “misrepresented themselves and the event” and the school did not “want to be in the middle of something like that.”
According to the announcement on the HTA conference web site, the conference will still be held on July 19th, from 11 am to 5 pm, as originally planned.”
