OAO is very right. THe IB teaches multiculturalism in a way that is too accepting. This is the same sort of set of mind that causes problems like forced marriage and the discriminating way women are being treated by their families and other people from their country when they come to live in a western country (discriminating still being a severe understatement of what is really going on). Noone realizes this, or at least chooses not to look when it is going on in front of their very eyes, and I think this is to a great part due to the overly accepting attitude of the EU towards immigrants and subsequent multiculturalism.
I don't know what it's like in the US... but I imagine it to be just as serious a problem in the other European countries as it is here.
