My latest for @washingtonpost with @gatnash is on how the UAE government cynically uses buzzwords such as "peace" and "tolerance" to wow Western audiences, meanwhile its actions betray complete disregard for human rights. Please read, comment, and share: washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/…
@washingtonpost @gatnash This is a regime that talked "peace" while bombing Yemen (and running torture dungeons and assassination programs), fueling civil war in Libya, blockading Qatar - just to name a few
@washingtonpost @gatnash They speak "tolerance" while backing a brutal military dictator in Egypt, attempting to derail a democratic transition in Sudan, not to mention imprisoning people for the crime of expressing their opinion back in the UAE
