The suppression of the people of the US and UK shows that today these powers are incapable of even solving their own internal problems,” IRNA quoted Jalili as saying in a meeting with Secretary General of the Islamic Jihad of Palestine Ramadan Abdullah on Monday.
According to the latest reports, US police forces have arrested over a thousand protesters demonstrating against poverty, unemployment, corporatism, social inequality and other grievances that have plagued the country for over three years now.
Less than two months ago, Britain, also became the scene of violent popular protests triggered by the fatal shooting and killing of a black man, Mark Duggan, at the hands of the UK police.
Several people were killed and more than 1,500 others were arrested during the government-ordered crackdown on protests.
Jalili said Islamic Awakening has critically undermined the well-being of the allies of Israel in the region which is in turn eating away at the foundation of the Zionist regime.
Abdullah, for his part, said the Palestinian nation and the Islamic Resistance Movement are both firm in their resolve to assert their rights.
End.
