It's tough to face a civilizational threat when America has institutions ambivalent about our role.
By calling the proposed Ground Zero Mosque's religious leader, imam Rauf, a "moderate"--even if he refuses to call Hamas a terrorist organization as the State Department correctly does and blames Christians and America for Moslem jihad--and sending him to the Near East on a tax-paid-for "outreach," State Department spokesgelding PJ Crowley is showing a tone-deafness worthy of the Carter administration.
Building a Mosque, naming it Cordoba, the historic Moslem caliphate in Spain (Get it, the West?), next to Ground Zero is indeed, as Charles Krauthammer persuasively argues, a "sacrilege."
