Brace yourselves, folks – the United Nations is adding another chapter to its epic farce by allowing the Taliban to attend the COP29 climate conference which starts on Monday, November 18th in Baku, Azerbaijan.
Yes, these are the same terrorists who are primarily focused on medieval norms like oppressing their women and enforcing Sharia law – but have have now turned their gaze to climate change.
Where in the heck is Azerbaijan?
The host country of Azerbaijan borders Russia, Georgia, Armenia and Iran. Human rights organizations have criticized them for suppression of their political opposition, media control and censorship and human rights violations. Kind of sounds like the Biden-Harris regime.
When desert rulers talk green.
The U.N. has decided that the Taliban, who took over Afghanistan in 2021 (but don’t actually have “official” recognition as the legitimate rulers of Afghanistan), deserve a spot at the table – so the Afghan delegation will attend as an “observer.” What exactly can the Taliban offer the climate conversation? Well, they’re experts in desertification – just not the kind that comes with greenhouse gases.
The Taliban’s National Environmental Protection Agency, led by Matiul Haq Khalis, claims they’ll be going to the conference to “strengthen cooperation” on climate issues and request climate funding i.e. they need a handout like every other tyrannical despots on the planet – especially with a future without a Democratic presidential administration in the United States who is willing to pay them off not to bomb us.
Dusting off diplomatic skills and playing the victim.
Afghanistan is reportedly facing severe environmental issues from high temperatures including droughts (gee, THAT has never happened before). This has led to food insecurity (previously known as hunger).
The question on everyone’s mind is whether the Taliban are going to the climate conference to actually address climate issues – and we all know that the answer is no. They just understand the game and the game right now is to get money by bowing at the altar of the climate change gods. It’s pretty much the fastest route to get money from the global elites. But hey, maybe they’ll use the cash to develop environmentally friendly rockets.
The intersectionality of absurdity and terrorism.
With the Taliban attending the climate change conference, the COP29 might just go down as one of the most absurd U.N. gatherings in recent history. If the U.N. can find legitimacy in welcoming a regime that restricts education and basic freedoms, what’s next – a “Women’s Rights Summit” hosted by Afghanistan? Or maybe a conference on democracy co-sponsored by North Korea?
