State Department Posture on UAE Counter-Terrorism Efforts
Reader comment on item: UAE Designates CAIR, MAS as Terrorist Groups

Submitted by Bill, Nov 17, 2014 15:44

This is a link to a report issued by the US State Department in April 2014 related to UAE counter-terrorism efforts. The report is fairly detailed and reflects favorably on those efforts, even identifying several joint US/UAE security programs. This past April, the US government's posture toward the UAE's counter-terrorism efforts appeared supportive and positive, seemingly viewing those efforts as progressive and moderate in the Middle East. Given that identified posture, including the noted operational cooperation between the US and UAE in counter-terrorism matters, how will the US government, particularly the political leadership, now view this UAE designation of the MB, CAIR and MAS as terrorist entities?
