"Diversity and Tolerance" -- even if it kills us

"Between Black and Immigrant Muslims, an Uneasy Alliance"; "In Tragedy, Glimpsing Oft-Overlooked Newcomers’ Lives"

Two recent headlines in NY Times continues that paper's and the rest of the "progressive" establishment's infatuation with Muslims in America. The motto is: "Diversity and Tolerance" even if it kills us.

The 1st article is a celebration of the emerging alliance between immigrant Muslims and Black American converts. The Times is pleased that these groups have overcome their wariness of each other and are joining forces: finance from the rich Asians and practical advice from the natives on how to work the civil rights racket for the benefit of Islam (not quite how the Times put it, but that is the real consequence of what the article reports). Naturally, the article did not discuss what is going to happen when the Muslim population reaches critical mass in the US (6,000,000 and counting). The demands ("civil rights") will come soon enough: Sharia Law for Muslims? Why not? Multiculturalism in all its glory; changes in US foreign policy? Of course; Enhanced civil rights protection for an "oppressed" minority? At least.

The other story about the Mali families in the tragic fire: 22 people in a single family home (too bad they didn't have a white landlord, it would have made the Times so pleased to rant about that); polygamy; illegal aliens. No criticism of any kind (judgementalism, indeed). Already, the politicians and the simple folk are falling all over themselves to give benefits (Damn The Law, anyway) and succor, instead of asking the hard and embarrassing about what these people were doing here and why are they, with their benighted ways, a benefit to this country? Heaven forbid that we should question or Judge.
