I pronounce the S in all those words except the bolded as they are not ENGLISH!

Sure they are. The origin of rendezvous is a French phrase, "rendez vous", but the word is an English word. By the way, debris also has French origins. In fact, nearly ALL English words originated from another language......that puts us in a real bind, doesn't it!
