Iranian judiciary terms Muslims' awakening key to victory

Any Muslim nation which experiences Islamic Awakening will no doubt embrace victory, Iranian Judiciary Chief Ayatollah Sadeq Amoli Larijani underlined."If Islamic countries are awakened and if they believe in the divine promises, they will certainly gain victory," Amoli Larijani said in a meeting with the families of martyrs in the Northwestern city of Zanjan on Wednesday.He called on Muslim nations to keep vigilant against the plots hatched by the world arrogant powers to hijack their popular uprisings.He warned that arrogant powers are trying to hijack the current revolutions in the region through different deceitful schemes, and said the world powers which used be supporting the dictatorial regimes have now extended a hand of friendship to the oppressed Muslim people.Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei had earlier cautioned that the US had initiated efforts to hijack the popular uprisings in the region and derail the Islamic awakening move in the Middle-East and North Africa."The United States does not do anything in the interest of the regional nations. Whatever they have done so far has been against the regional nations," Ayatollah Khamenei said, addressing a large crowd of the people at the mausoleum of the late Founder of the Islamic Republic, Imam Khomeini, South of Tehran.The Leader urged Muslim countries to remain vigilant in the face of the Western plots.In recent months, a wave of revolutions and anti-government uprisings has swept the Arab world.In January, a revolution in Tunisia ended the 23-year ruling of former President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali.In February, another Arab revolution led to the ouster of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak after three decades of his authoritarian rule. Other revolutions, then, erupted in Libya, Yemen and Bahrain, while other anti-government unrests have started in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Oman, Kuwait and Algeria.In Libya, euphoric Libyan revolutionaries seized control of most of Tripoli on August 22 in a lightning advance, celebrating the victory in Green Square, the symbolic heart of Muammar Qaddafi's regime.
