This one.

The Obama administration has made it extremely clear that they are opposed to the OIC’s efforts to criminalize criticism of Islam — Hillary Clinton gave a speech about it recently and made it clear that the US stands for free speech and not for blasphemy laws.

In that context, it makes more sense for the US to join the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations in order to have more influence in fighting against the nations who are trying to restrict speech in the name of religion.
