The hypocrisy of the Western countries on democracy is exposed – in their lukewarm response to the unprecedented uprising in Egypt – demanding an end to the 30-year long despotic rule of Hosni Mubarak. Whereas the West wanted the monarchies and autocratic rulers in the Middle East to continue – the governments elected through a democratic process in Iran and Gaza are being targeted – as they do not serve to the strategic interests of the West.
