When my Dad and I had a big Lutefisk dinner, my Mom would leave the house for the day. She did not like the odor.

See what happens, mention Lutefisk and everyone show up. Norway: Taliban delegation arrives in Oslo to discuss women’s rights with Norwegian authorities January 23, 2022 11:00 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER Obviously this is a legitimization of the Taliban, contrary to denials. The attempt as aa whole is absurd, because the Taliban’s treatment of women is based on Sharia. No stern lecture from Anniken Huitfeldt is going to move the Taliban to discard Sharia. After all, what is Norway going to do? Invade Afghanistan? The invasion is entirely in the other direction. “Afghanistan: Taliban delegation’s visit to Norway prompts protest in Oslo,” Euronews, January 22, 2022: There was a small protest of Afghan citizens in Oslo ahead of the Taliban’s visit to the Norwegian capital on Sunday. They’re against the delegation meeting with Norwegian authorities and representatives from the international community for talks. It’s the first visit to the West since they took control of Kabul in August. “We do not want the Taliban here in Norway. They do not represent us,” said Shahia Soltani an Afghan citizen and one of the demonstrators. “The Taliban is on the blacklist for terrorists in the United States. So why should we invite and negotiate with them?” Soltani queried. The Norwegian Foreign Ministry said Friday that it has invited representatives of the Taliban to Oslo from January 23 to 25. Norwegian newspaper VG said special representatives from the United States, Germany, Britain, France, Italy and the European Union were expected to take part. The ministry did not comment on the newspaper’s report. Discussions on girls’ education, and women’s rights will be top of the agenda. The Minister of Foreign Affairs for Norway, Anniken Huitfeldt, said: “It does not in any way imply any recognition of the coup that took place. We will make strong demands on the Taliban, but we do not know if they will implement them afterwards.”… The Norwegian authorities have stressed the Taliban’s visit is not a legitimisation of the Taliban, who are expected to demand the release of $10 billion (€8.8 billion) in frozen assets.
