As everyone probably knows, the building of the Cordoba House aka "Ground Zero Mosque" aka Park 51 is unpopular with most of the American people. Naturally, Republicans see this as the perfect wedge issue to bash Democrats as well as demagogue a religious minority un-liked by their right wing base. Democrats, in turn, are acting like deer caught in the headlights unsure of what to do with an issue that they want to just go away.
Two options are now available to the parties involved: the Park 51 developers could fold and give a victory to the Right or they can press on building the community center amidst all the controversy and demagoguery.
Instead of those two options, I think the developers should do some politically astute jujitsu on this issue. Park 51 should stay as an Islamic community center but adding to it's mission, they should turn the site into an Interfaith community center where people of all faiths can come in and worship. There could be prayer spaces for Muslims as well Jews, Christians, Buddhists, etc.
A move like turning Park 51 to an open religious community center would help defuse the situation while keeping an Islamic community center at the current site. It'll still be an Islamic community center but it'll also be an Interfaith community center with added prayer spaces for people from other religions. I'm sure other funding can be secured to expand the center to add these other elements.
From the project description, it seems like most of the 13 story facility is devoted to community center activities like a swimming pool while the mosque space is to hold 1,000 to 2,000 people. It shouldn't cost that much to add other prayer spaces as well and even if it did, fundraising by other religious groups should cover it. A space devoted to religious tolerance could be added too.
I think this solution such as adding interfaith prayer spaces at the community center can help end bad feelings that a victory from either side would cause. It'll also realize the Park 51 developer's vision of bridge building, cultural understanding, and outreach behind Cordoba House project.
