“The balance of power is tilting. The United States of America is losing control in the Arab world. They cannot even sustain their position like last year. They are losing to the masses and losing to the resistance,” said Saeb Shaath, author and Middle East expert from Northern Ireland’s capital of Belfast, in a Saturday interview.
“There are rising powers and their facing the United States of America and the Zionist domination in the Middle East and they’re going to lose at some stage,” he added.
Shaath pointed to the behind-the-scene efforts hijack the Arab revolution and noted that such scheme are doomed to failure, arguing that the people who managed to overthrow the former authoritarian regimes are still capable of toppling any other puppet regime.
“The counter- revolution [plans] … in different areas of the Arab world is going to fail. A revolution doesn’t take a day, a month or a year, it takes more than that,” the analyst pointed out.
Since early 2011, a tide of popular uprisings and revolutions has swept across the Arab countries in the Middle East and North Africa.
The developments have so far led to three revolutions in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya.
Many observers contend that the growing tide of Islamic Awakening has been inspired by Iran’s Islamic Revolution in 1979.
