LS, I wasn’t aware of FR’s roll in Bush using the term Islamofascists, but here’s something on its origins. http://muslimsagainstsharia.blogspot.com/2007/10/why-islamo-fascism.html

A private RTC sounds interesting, but I don’t know how it would be promoted. Maybe government chartered like Fannie and Freddie, publicly selling its stock AND requiring investment by organizations that have their mortgage securities purchased?

FWIW, here’re some concerns and suggestions from the last RTC’s chairman. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122230552706773711.html?mod=googlenews_wsj

As I recall, Bush was talking about “terrorists” or some term like that prior to our Aug. 6, 2006 meeting with him. Three days later was the first time I heard him publicly call them “Islamofascists.”

The problem with the RTC is that it’s not on the table now, and getting a group to support such a different concept at this point probably won’t fly.
