GZ Mosque
Charles Krauthammer's Sunday column is the best commentary I've seen. Very even-handed and on-the-mark, as usual for him. One of my buddies from work had the great idea of starting a "Richard the Lionhearted Center for Dialogue" next door to this Cordoba deal. One thing I haven't seen much on is the significance of the Cordoba name. It's been touted as a reference to a time and place (medieval Spain) of understanding and respect between Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. Maybe if you were a Muslim. Let's not forget that Cordoba was under Islamic rule then, with Sharia law and taxes for non-Muslims. Hardly a model of tolerance.
