The UAE is being portrayed as almost complicit in the transfer of funds to terrorists, the shipment of nuclear technology and this: "Similarly, in 2003, UAE officials refused a U.S. request to intercept a shipment of nuclear technology bound for South Africa by a smuggler named Asher Karni, according to University of Georgia sanctions expert Scott Jones, who works with U.S. agencies on proliferation issues. Mr. Karni was convicted of violating sanctions against weapons of mass destruction last year in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. The UAE also was believed to be a nexus for Pakistan's nuclear program and hosted at least two front companies that forwarded material to Islamabad."

This is the stuff of modern espionage. We have no idea of really what is happening.

The UAE is truly our friend. Don't forget that.
