Moroccan Government Warns It "Will Not Tolerate" Homosexuality

Disturbing news from Morocco. The government vows to crackdown on a burgeoning gay rights movement and warns homosexuality "will not be tolerated."


The Associated Press reported a statement from the Interior Ministry: "Certain media are taking a stand for certain ignominious behaviors, which is a provocation for the national public opinion. Any act contrary to moral or religious values will be repressed." An anonymous ministry official said this was a reference to newspapers that advocated greater "tolerance for homosexuality."
