No, David Wharton, *The Los Angeles Times,* and *Alaska Dispatch*- this "US fencer" did *Not* "find the moment she created,"  It was *You* who "created" that moment.

The "moment" she and you played her as a victim, was the "moment" we stopped caring.  Because despite what you and CNN pundits think, she should *Not* have carried the American flag at the opening ceremonies just because she's a Muslim.

When U.S. Shooter Ginny Thrasher became the youngest woman ever to win the first gold medal of the Games, you ignored it.  *That* was the "moment" when you stopped making America great as the meritocracy it's supposed to be.

Religious orientation had no bearing on the emotional swirl that claimed Muhammad after her abysmal defeat to Cecilia Berder of France.  Turns out being Muslim and female has nothing to do with it: When the whistle blows in this arena it's about winning and losing- nothing more, nothing less. Pure sport.

You keep your "moment," we'll keep ours.
