In FrontPage today I discuss the UAE-designated terror organization, Hamas-linked CAIR: The United Arab Emirates last week approved a list of 86 “designated terrorist organisations and groups, including the usual suspects – the UAE Muslim Brotherhood, the Islamic State – along with two surprises, both with ties to Hamas: the Muslim American Society and the […]
US State Department asks UAE why it labeled Hamas-linked CAIR a terrorist organization
It’s perfectly clear why CAIR and MAS were listed as terror organizations: because of their links to the Muslim Brotherhood. But the Obama Administration cannot accept that, as it has itself done so much to aid the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and elsewhere. Hence this move, which is a fresh indication of the unwholesome influence […]
UAE designates Hamas-linked CAIR a terrorist organization
UPDATE: ABC News confirms this, noting in the very last paragraph of its story that the UAE has designated Hamas-linked CAIR a terrorist group.

The Egyptian government knows that the Obama Administration aided jihadist elements in Libya. So it isn’t hard to see why they decided […]
UAE airline receives US funds, won’t serve Israelis
Why is the U.S. funding Etihad Airways? Don’t the super-rich sheikhs of Dubai have enough money to take care of it themselves? And why is the U.S. funding an entity that follows Nazi policies regarding Israel? Surely that is a make-or-break issue, or would be if Barack Obama weren’t President. “UAE airline receives US funds, […]

“We the noble citizens of the UAE are ashamed to see singers, dancers and bling-bling whores coming here to spread their filth in our country”
Enforcing Islamic purity by suppressing the freedom of speech — where have we seen that before?
