 Unnamed skeptics in Washington raised concerns that the United Arab Emirates might be associating with Osama Bin Laden, citing a missed opportunity for a drone strike in 1999 mentioned in the September 11 Commission report which was abandoned due to being located in a UAE run hunting camp in Afghanistan.However, no evidence or proof apart from speculations was presented.According to the CIA in the 9/11 Commission Report, the strike was called off because the intelligence was dubious.
