Blacklash and Moonbeams
A convenience store in Glasgow owned by a "man of Pakistani descent" was vandalised by persons unknown who "set a fire" and the Al AP's Tariq Panja is there on the scene to triumphantly declare that it is a confirmed sighting of the Bigfoot of journalism: The Inevitable anti-Muslim Backlash.
Ignoring the fact that the identity and motives of the vandals are completely unknown to the reader, Mr. Panja not only claims that this is part of a wave of anti-Muslim attacks and implies that the BNP is behind it, he even manages a marvelous bit of alchemy by mixing in one alleged bit of graffiti at a mosque and less than two-dozen unspecified incidents that turn a vandalised shop into "fire-bombed businesses" (note both the plural and escalation of the offence) without need to cite any specifics.
Imagine if, during the Falklands War, the AP had turned a Saturday night dust-up at the Argentine Steak House in Aberdeen into an anti-Argentinian pogrom and you get the idea.

Anti-Muslim violence is so necessary to the Leftist worldview that if it doesn't exist, they'll invent it.
It is a law of nature to them that Pale People commit violence against Brown People rather than the other way around. All the recent Brown People violence has created a terrible state of mental distress among Leftists, so this hypothetical Pale People violence must come as a tremendous relief.
Right on the nose, anonymous.
Self-loathing, self-flagellating Leftists are the virulent pill clenched precariously in civilization's teeth.
A pill made of a thin layer of political correctness, surrounding a shell of Marxist historical revisionism that coats a core of White Guilt.
Talk about alchemy...
