For them to be in a panic they would have to be opposed to what the muslims are doing. But Are they opposed?
They probably are opposed to it, but they're in a panic mode because they know that they will alienate a potential voting bloc if the come out and point a finger at them and condemn their actions.
I always remember after 9/11, Bloomberg went up to that mosque on 3rd Ave and 96 St and had a press conference to pander to the Muslims there. After he gave is pandering spiel about his "friends in the Muslim community," the imam of the mosque spoke. Everyone (especially Bloomberg) thought the imam would also condemn the attacks on the WTC....but he didn't. What he did attack was the possibility of the "Islamaphobic" cops ticketing the cars around the mosque and the possibility that the cops wouldn't protect them against people attacking them....but no condemnation of the WTC.
So then, Bloomberg was in a "panic mode," of how to explain the imam's statement...or lack of a statement.
This continues to be a problem in the Leftist political world even today.
