Assessing the fear factor
by Elwood McQuaid https://www.legal-project.org/860/assessing-the-fear-factor Excerpt: Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, leader of the crusade to build a mosque near Ground Zero in New York City, trashed his "moderate" pose when he disregarded millions of concerned Americans and declared that moving the proposed facility could cause a violent backlash from Muslim extremists and endanger national security.
