A majority of the Muslims can not read and a majority of the Muslims that can read can not read the Quran as it is written in Classical Arabic. Those that can read it, does not understand it as it contains words with no meaning or, actually, forgotten meaning. The Quran is a compilation of text fragments mainly based on Syro-Aramic: http://www.amazon.com/Syro-Aramaic-Reading-Koran-Contribution-Decoding/dp/3899300882

As with all brainwashing if the repetition of the slogans or behavior is reduced the strength of the brainwashing is reduced over time. Thus, do not accept building of new Mosques, ban the veil, do not accept breaks during working hours for prayers http://islam.about.com/od/prayer/Prayer_Salat.htm etc.

Totally right. Classical Arabic is different from modern Arabic, and further still from the dialects. And of course most Muslims don’t even speak Arabic (only 20% are Arabs). I read on FrontPage Mag a few years ago a story about a Bangladeshi guy who didn’t understand Arabic but was forced by his family to memorize the Qur’an. He finally bought a copy in Bengali and was shocked to find out what it really said—and caused him to leave Islam.
