Of course its ignored. The Left simply cannot allow any idea to upset their carefully constructed view of the world. Even if this story were completely and positively verified, the Left would find some way to explain it away - probably by blaming the rapes on Israel, the US, or as a residue of European colonialism. I live in SF, CA, and after talking with Lefties, I'm stunned by the lengths to which they'll go to avoid any intrusion of reality into a carefully constructed world view. Its pathetic and tragic to listen to people - who in other respects are intelligent and rational - defend things that their common sense must tell them are wrong. Yet so attached to a Left wing view of the world that no amount of reason can shake their views. I've come to the conclusion, the politics for the Left is a matter of religious faith that must be defended with the fanaticism of a Wahabi Muslim.

The definition of "barking moonbat"... Someone who sacrifices sanity for the sake of consistency.
