Washington National Cathedral, known for presidential funerals and other major spiritual services, will host a Muslim prayer service for the first... View Enlarged Image

Islamofascism: On Friday, for the first time, the venerable Washington National Cathedral will be used as a mosque, with radical Muslims leading prayers. Islamist infiltration of the Beltway is nearly complete.

Drunk with "interfaith" tolerance, church officials agreed to let the Islamists make "a statement." About what? How gullible they are?

The 100-year-old Episcopal church, dubbed our "National House of Prayer" by Congress, is where we hold funerals for our presidents, like Reagan, and our heroes, like Neil Armstrong. There are few more powerful symbols of our Judeo-Christian culture than the cathedral — and that's exactly why the Islamists targeted it.

As the Washington Post explained, "Organizers said they are seeking to make a statement by having Muslim leaders come and hold their service in such a visible Christian house of worship."

Who are these "organizers"? Members of known Muslim Brotherhood front groups, including the Council on American-Islamic Relations and the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA). The Justice Department has identified both as belonging to the Hamas wing of the radical Brotherhood. It's also implicated them in a Hamas conspiracy to raise millions for Palestinian suicide bombers. These co-sponsors of the National Cathedral jumuah ("for invited guests only") remain unindicted co-conspirators in a major terror case.

CAIR is so toxic the FBI won't do outreach with the group. But cathedral clergy rolled out prayer rugs for it.

Another co-sponsor is the ADAMS (All Dulles Area Muslim Society) mosque of Northern Virginia, which the Brotherhood controls through deed-holder ISNA.

"We want the world to see the Christian community is partnering with us and is supporting our religious freedom in the same way we are calling for religious freedom for all minorities in Muslim countries," an ADAMS spokesman claimed.

Really? We don't recall ADAMS demanding Palestinians to stop denying Jews access to the Temple Mount. Or the Brotherhood to stop burning Coptic churches. Or the Saudis to stop persecuting non-Muslims.

We'll believe such interfaith efforts are real when ADAMS opens its own building for Christian prayers.

Meanwhile, CAIR is advising U.S. mosque leaders to lawyer up before letting FBI agents into mosques to seek their help discouraging Islamic State recruits.

Let's see, we'll let known terrorist supporters into our most revered places of worship, yet Muslims won't let us into theirs to ferret out terrorists.
