From Prime Business Africa, January 1:
Somalia assumed the rotating presidency of the United Nations Security Council on Wednesday, placing its Permanent Representative, Abukar Dahir Osman, in charge of guiding the council’s agenda for the month.
While the move marks a diplomatic milestone for Somalia, it comes amid renewed scrutiny of Osman’s personal and professional history, both in the United States and in relation to historical events in Somalia.
The Republic of Somaliland, via its official X account, has claimed that Osman entered the United States in 1986 as a refugee, asserting persecution under Somalia’s former military leader, Siad Barre, and identifying as a member of the Isaaq clan.The claim has drawn attention because Osman, in a UN Security Council meeting on December 29, 2025, reportedly rejected allegations that genocide was committed against the Isaaq during Barre’s regime. Somaliland officials have described this as inconsistent with the asylum narrative they allege Osman used to obtain U.S. refugee status.
There is no independent verification of Somaliland’s claim, and Osman has not publicly responded....

Irrelevant United Nations 'Suspends' Libya from Human Rights Council
The fact that Libya was on the Human Rights Council at all tells you everything you need to know about the U.N.
In 2003 Libya was voted Chair of the Human Rights Commission which was replaced by the Council in 2006 when they couldn't handle having the free world laugh at them any more.
Then Libya was voted onto the new body in 2010.
The only thing more psychotic than Libya as Chair of the Commission would be putting someone like Mugabe's Zimbabwe in charge of the U.N.'s Commission on Sustainable Development.
Oh wait... .they did that in May 2007.
Bunch of sick fucks.
There, I've catharted. Thank you for your patience.
