TEHRAN (FNA)- Secretary General of the People's Front for the Liberation of
Palestine Ahmad Jibril in a meeting with Secretary of Iran's Supreme
National Security Council (SNSC) Saeed Jalili praised Tehran's spiritual and
material support for Palestine, and described Iran as a strategic hope for
the Palestinian nation.

"Iran is the Palestinian nation's strategic hope," Jibril said during the
meeting in Tehran on Sunday.

He pointed to the Zionist regime's concerns about the increasing power and
potentials of the Muslim world, and said, "Certain powers' pressures against
the Islamic Republic of Iran indicate that regional developments and the
spreading domain of the Islamic Awakening have increased the Islamic
Republic of Iran's capabilities against the US and the Zionist regime."

Jalili, for his part, referred to the regional developments and Islamic
Awakening in the region, and said popular uprisings in the region and the
collapse of such dictatorial regimes as Hosni Mubarak in Egypt have pushed
the Zionist regime to its weakest position now.

Jalili in relevant remarks in January had stressed that the Islamic
Awakening sweeping the Middle-East and North Africa has changed the balance
of power in favor of the Muslim world.

Jalili made the remarks, referring to revolutions in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya,
and popular uprisings in Yemen, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.

He also noted that the Islamic Awakening in the region must be used against
the hegemonic policies of the United States and Israel.
