The New York Times published an op-ed Thursday from a leader of the Taliban, one of the world’s largest terrorist organizations.

The op-ed from Sirajuddin Haqqani was titled “What We, the Taliban Want,” and attempted to explain what the Taliban was looking for in its negotiations with the U.S.

Haqqani attempted to respond to concerns that the Taliban would once again host terrorist groups like Al-Qaida if the U.S. were to leave Afghanistan.

“It is not in the interest of any Afghan to allow such groups to hijack our country and turn it into a battleground,” he wrote. “We have already suffered enough from foreign interventions.”

The Times was criticized by some on social media Tuesday for publishing an op-ed from a leader of one of the world’s largest terrorist organizations.

New York Times runs op-ed by Taliban jihadi wanted for questioning in connection with jihad murders

Feb 21, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer 

“Haqqani accused Americans of flip-flopping and moving the goalposts when it comes to negotiations, claiming that the group even kept the door open when President Trump called off talks.”

That’s what this is all about: hitting Trump. If Hitler were alive today and criticizing Trump, you’d get a New York Times op-ed, “What We, the Nazis, Want,” by Adolf Hitler.

“New York Times slammed for Taliban leader op-ed: ‘Feels like a leaflet flyover,'” by Brian Flood, Fox News, February 20, 2020:

Remember that in 1938, Time Magazine named Adolph Schicklgruber Man of the Year an' the next year they named Ioseb Besarionis dze Jugshavili. Both men were the most prodigious mass murderers in history.
