                 UAE Includes 2 US Muslim Groups on Terror List

   by VOA News

   The United Arab Emirates has included two U.S. Muslim organizations on
   its list of more than 80 terrorist movements worldwide.

   The UAE named the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a
   Washington-based group known as CAIR, as well as the Muslim American
   Society, in a list that also included al-Qaida, Islamic State, the
   Muslim Brotherhood and Boko Haram.

   Neither CAIR nor the Muslim American Society is a designated terror
   group by the U.S. government.

   Their inclusion drew swift protests from the American groups. CAIR put
   out a statement that said it is seeking clarification on its "shocking
   and bizarre" inclusion on the list, while the Muslim American Society
   said that it had "no dealings with the United Arab Emirates" and was
   "perplexed by this news."

   On Monday, the U.S. State Department said it would be seeking more
   information from the UAE.
