"For many European municipalities and a few American ones accommodating Islam is a big dilemma—but not an insoluble one."

 
A typical tagline from our erudite multi-culturalist friends at The Economist.  Not suprising the article lists examples of the “xenophobic and intolerant” host cultures from numerous European cities but fails to mention even one of the so-called “American ones”.  Perhaps it’s because the American version of “Assimilation” can be clearly defined as to being the responsibility of the guest culture not the host country.  Maybe it’s due to the fact that “accomodation” is inherant in “American Culture”.  One example is how a traditional Catholic observance usherd in Fish-Stick Friday in every public school in America.  That is completely different then requiring schools to constantly serve a completly separate halal menu because of  complaints of a “dietary apartheid”.
