Raymond Ibrahim: Obama Tries to Eradicate Radical Islam - Not from America, but from America's mindset. - '...Deplorably enough, nearly a decade after the Islamist-inspired attacks of 9/11, far from knowing its enemy, the U.S. government is banning itself from merely acknowledging its enemy, which is doubly problematic, as knowledge begins with acknowledgment. Nor is there much room for optimism: if the Obama administration can easily expose America to attack by reducing our physical defenses, surely a subversion of our intellectual safeguards -- that is, a subversion of something as abstract as knowledge -- will go unchecked.'
