SWISS COMPANY HIRED BY UAE FOR ANTI-MUSLIM DISINFORMATION CAMPAIGN

As revealed by European Investigative Collaborations in the Abu Dhabi Secrets investigation, the secret services of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) hired Alp Services – a Swiss firm specialising in smear campaigns, spreading disinformation and creating fake accounts – in 2017 to spy on European citizens, among others.

Alp Services illegally shared the names of thousands of European citizens with the Emirati secret services.

Organisations, politicians and activists in 18 European countries were targeted and discredited by wrongly connecting them to a radical Islamist network This smear campaign has damaged their reputations and contributed to public distrust of Muslims and Islam.

THE ORIGIN STORY

After the Arab Spring and regional geopolitical shifts, the UAE saw the revolutions in Egypt, Tunisia, and Libya as a threat. In response, Abu Dhabi adopted a different strategy to suppress protest movements.

As Islamist movements gained political power and influence, particularly in Egypt and Tunisia, the UAE positioned itself as a key force in the counter-revolution.

After successfully crushing the Arab Spring by funding warlord militia Haftar in Libya, financing the bloody coup led by General Sisi in Egypt, and orchestrating a softer approach with Kais Saied in Tunisia, where he dissolved parliament and reinstated the Ben Ali police state, the UAE is now actively funding the SDF militias, which commit massacres against Sudanese civilians on a daily basis.

The UAE realized that Muslims still have freedom of speech only in Europe and North America. Determined to silence them, it made it its mission to combat their voices, lobbying for the far right in Europe. This explains why UAE-based figures like Amjad Taha are frequently hosted by European right-wing media.
