An international lawyer tells Press TV the Islamic Awakening is 'at its very beginning' and not simply limited to Arabs but influencing uprisings across the globe.
Franklin Lamb in an interview said “This standing up, this uprising is broader than just Arabs for example and I think we're just at the very beginning of it.”
The American lawyer said he thought “the Islamic Awakening is so broad and so deep that it is influencing the American public and the world generally,” and the West should 'be encouraged' by the Islamic Awakening and 'respond' to it.
Lamb further said that the West is going to learn a lot from the uprisings in Islamic countries, mentioning that they will 'learn a lot about Islam' and 'respect it increasingly.'
Since January, revolutions have swept through the Middle East and North Africa unseating dictators such as the Tunisian Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, the Egyptian Hosni Mubarak, and the Libyan Muammar Gaddafi.
