At the conference, one development which I believe to be a mistake was that the Arab world formed the United Arab Alliance. This was denounced as a terrorist alliance because countries that were enemies of the U.S. – and Israel – were members, such as Iraq. While Iraq eventually left, the UAA in my eyes is a failure because threats were used which have never been successful for us.
