"Every human has a right to democracy, irrespective of race, colour or creed."

Democracy is very much a European construct which never evolved anywhere else in the world. For most of teh globe the standard political system is a form of dictatorship, either on a local tribal scale, or on a national (racial) scale.
Individual "rights" didn't exist as a concept in most places: you were simply a cog in the wheel of the system. Democracy as a concept is alien to most parts of the world
All the white Rhodesians did was apply the existing tribal ruling systems to the benefit of the white tribes over the rest. Now you have Mugabe's boys doing the same for THEIR own benefit. However Mugabe & Co don't have the ability to make it work. They're too thick, too bigoted, and too opposed to the non-Mugabe supporting tribes
