The UAE has paid at least €5.7 MILLION to a Swiss intelligence firm to run smear campaigns against Muslims across Europe.
The leaked documents exposed by the Abu Dhabi Secrets investigation revealed dossiers on 1,000+ individuals and 400+ organizations in 18 European countries, many branded as Muslim Brotherhood linked.
This article says a much wider UAE online network of 330,000 accounts pushing anti Muslim content.
And here’s the geopolitical angle: the UAE’s partnership with Israel, their shared hostility toward political Islam, and the overlap between their narratives and Europe’s far right.
Israel benefits when Muslim political activism is framed as extremism. The UAE benefits when Muslim civil society is discredited. The far right gets more ammunition to demonize Muslims.
Millions spent smearing Muslims. Hundreds of thousands of accounts amplifying the narrative. And a political ecosystem in which Israel’s interests align with the campaign.
Now we know where to look when asking who’s paying @realMaalouf and his ilk.
