Incorrect text alignment in MyAthens for RTL languages

A client has reported an issue with the RTL display in My Athens:

The periods appear on the right even when the text is RTL because the alignment is LTR.

The customer is asking to change the alignment to be based on the language used for each line.

In the CSS the <p> elements have the text-align property, but when the text is in an RTL language like Hebrew, Arabic, etc., it also needs to have a “direction:rtl” property.
