Dilpazier Aslam

I guess you really do learn a new thing everyday...

Dilpazier Aslam was a Guardian trainee journalist who wrote an opinionated article following the 7/7 bombing.
However, the Guardian did not inform readers that he was infact a member of the political party Hizb ut-Tahrir which is an international non-sectarian sunni islamist political party whose goal is to esablish a caliphate to unify the muslim world.

After this was discovered he he lost his posistion with the newspaper, due to the information provided to the paper by bloggers.

Dilpazier told Alan Rushbridger (The Guardian's editor) that he was not willling to leave Hizb ut-Tahrir, he suggested that there was a gulf between younger British Muslims and main stream British society, aswell as the older generation of Muslims. He claimed that his generation were not prepared to suffer in silence but are 'sassy' and willing to 'Rock the boat'.
