Ahmadinejad Blasts West's Hollow Claims about Advocating Freedom
TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad lambasted the western countries for their empty mottoes and claims about supporting freedom, and said they have actually limited freedom by a number of rules and regulations.
"Today the western countries claim to be advocates of freedom in the world and they determine the limits for this freedom," Ahmadinejad said in Tehran on Tuesday night.
He described freedom as the most important gift given by the Almighty God to human beings, and pointed out that all divine orders have been issued to free man from limitations, restrictions, yokes and bounds.
His remarks came as the growing waves of awakening and freedom-seeking are now spreading from the Middle-East to the western countries.
The growing waves of awakening seem to be spreading from the Middle-East and North Africa to Europe. Riots and protests were first seen in Spain and Greece, and then spread to Britain, where unrest has rocked it in a scale unprecedented in 30 years following the police's killing of black male Mark Duggan in a shooting spree in the London suburb of Tottenham on August 4.
Tension erupted on August 6, when a few hundred people gathered outside a police station in Tottenham to protest the killing.
The protests have spread to major cities like Birmingham, Liverpool, and Bristol.
British Prime Minister David Cameron has threatened to call in the army if protests persisted, and analysts believe that his threat displays that the White Hall's claim about being an advocate of human rights and freedom of expression is nothing but an empty, boastful remark.
