Mugabe: U.N. Should Help Katrina Victims

UNITED NATIONS (AP) -- Zimbabwe's president said Sunday the U.N. housing agency should help Hurricane Katrina victims, instead of Zimbabweans left homeless by his government's slum demolitions.

He also lashed out at the United States and Britain, accusing them of double standards over human rights.

"They have remained silent about the shocking circumstances of obvious state neglect surrounding the tragic Gulf Coast disaster," he said, adding, "a whole community of mainly nonwhites was deliberately abandoned to the ravages of Hurricane Katrina as sacrificial lambs."
