Zimbabwean president Robert Mugabe yesterday took his anti-gay campaign
to the ongoing UN General Assembly where he bluntly told world leaders
at the United Nations that Africans are not gays and totally reject
attempts to prescribe new rights including gay rights in Africa
"We equally reject attempts to prescribe "new rights" that are contrary
to our values, norms, traditions, and beliefs. We are not gays!
Cooperation and respect for each other will advance the cause of human
rights worldwide. Confrontation, vilification, and double-standards will
not." he said.
