A top diplomat representing the Taliban terror organization ruling Afghanistan demanded representation for the group at the United Nations this week, insisting the Taliban’s participation in the global organization was a “necessity and a right.”
Suhail Shaheen, who has represented the Taliban in negotiations with the U.N. in the past and now runs the group’s embassy in Qatar, noted that the Taliban has been the uncontested government of Afghanistan for nearly four years and insisted that the group deserves some say in the operations of the United Nations.
“The presence of a representative from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan at the United Nations is both a necessity and a right of the Islamic Emirate’s government,” Shaheen told the Afghan Tolo News outlet in remarks published on Sunday. “Through such a representative, solutions to various issues can be pursued.”

UN to Taliban:
“Are you guys still tearing down 5K year old statues that you personally don’t like?
Tally: Maybe we are, and maybe we are not. What kind of statues do you have?

Why not yet another totalitarian Islamist genocidal regime.
Has the UN declared the rape of little girls, little boys, all women (and men if you have to) fully legal yet?
If not, why wait?

Let em’ in.
They earned it. They have land unlike the PLO.

The US should tell the Taliban we’ll think about it - but only after they agree to return all the military equipment that Biden left there.
Possible UN membership or our military equipment…

Ugh. The message in #14 was supposed to say: You CAN’T have them both.
I will have to fire my proofreader over this inexcusable error.
