The West, State Multiculturalism and its Failure http://usa.mediamonitors.net/content/view/full/85290

"Multiculturalism or pluralism is whimsical idea that is conceptually flawed and unworkable in practice. This is because pluralism encourages groups to promote their cultural identity irrespective of their political influence or financial strength. Naturally, the strongest group uses its political prowess and financial muscle to persuade politicians to define legislation, which vigorously defends and endorses their culture and values at the expense of other groups. Additionally, the most powerful group manipulates the media and the educational establishments to actively promote its culture, this leads to wide spread acceptance amongst the indigenous population.

In this way, the strongest group's culture becomes indistinguishable from the state's culture. Weaker groups find themselves culturally squeezed, discriminated against and in conflict with the state. Such groups are coerced by both the state and society to dilute their cultural identity to fit in. Those groups that refuse to temper with their cultural identity are ostracized and consigned to live in ghettos. In extreme cases they are expelled from the host nation like what happened to the Roma gypsies in France."
