"Not until near the end does the article make any reference to the fact that most of these rioters, in Germany and France, are Muslims."

Some are not???

"Sooner or later, the press has to report the truth..."

Oh BB, you're such an optimist...

"Perhaps they are so untutored in both history and philosophy not to understand that yet."

...and so generous.

Thanks for both the "optimist" and the "generous." Actually, the American media ARE beginning to report the French situation accurately. As another poster on this thread correctly observed, 60% of Americans are getting their news dominantly from the Internet.

That means WE are part of the media (broadly defined), and WE are reporting this story correctly.
