U.S. Must Champion The War On Islam

U.S. policy should be reinforcing the interim government [of Egypt]... the United States must articulate a global strategy in what has become a cold war between the civilized societies of the world and violent Islamic fundamentalists who seek our overthrow. This is a mortal struggle with enemies who diametrically oppose Western moral philosophies and democratic worldviews.
