TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad stressed on Monday that
despite the attempts made by the world arrogant powers to exercise their
evil plots, the time has arrived for the awakening of all nations.

Ahmadinejad said that the world is on verge of undergoing a great upheaval
because mankind strives for finding out realities.

Addressing a meeting, attended by a group of people and Muslim ambassadors
and representatives, on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Prophet
Mohammad (PBUH) and of his grandson Imam Jafar Sadeq (AS), President
Ahmadinejad said nations are awakening despite efforts of global arrogance
to design complicated satanic plots. "Under God's grace, gone is the era of
the arrogance."

The time is now for the rule of justice and love in light of monotheism, he
concluded.

Political observers believe that people's uprisings in Tunisia, Egypt,
Bahrain, Yemen and Jordan are the result of growing "Islamic awakening" in
the Middle-Eastern countries.

People in the Middle-East now believe that the western approach to the
ongoing revolutions in Egypt, Tunisia, Bahrain, Jordan and Yemen has
unveiled the true nature of the West's stance on democracy.

The United States and certain other western countries have adopted a
double-standard approach towards the popular protests against the
dictatorial regimes in the region.

Political observers also believe that the recent uprisings in Tunisia,
Egypt, Yemen, Bahrain and Jordan are the result of America's double
standards in the Middle-East and its biased policies against different
nations.

When asked if Mubarak was a dictator, United States Vice-President Joseph
Biden said, "Mubarak has been an ally of ours in a number of things."

Western analysts underline that such statements leave negative effects on
the Muslim nations of the region because it reveals that the United States
has double standards when it comes to human rights and democracy.

The United States and Europe supported the dictatorship of Zine El Abidin
Ben Ali, the ousted Tunisian President, and showed indifference to the
Tunisian people's cries of protest.

In Egypt, the United States and the West also supported Mubarak in
repressing Islamic groups and intellectuals and torturing freedom-seeking
Egyptian youth.

Under the pretext of human rights, the United States criticizes
establishments that respect human and civil rights but stand against its
authoritarian policies.
