#Afghanistan-#UAE Sirajuddin Haqqani, one of the world's most wanted terrorists, visited the #UAE today, meeting here with MBZ.

The Haqqanis have long held ties in the UAE, but for Siraj to visit will ruffle big feathers, given his 20+yr role in coordinating deadly attacks on U.S. citizens.

“claims genocide without proof”?
If 36,000 dead, bombings of hospitals, doctors, ambulances, enforced starvation and torture don’t constitute genocide in YOUR definition .. they do according to international law.
