The money quote:

The ingenious Sharia uses vigilante street justice to bring about Islamic submission. That is why civil unrest and honor crimes go wherever Islam goes. The power of Islam comes from turning Muslim against Muslim -- with a reward in heaven.

No kingdom divided against itself can endure. Islam could only survive behind a cultural firewall, which the internet is demolishing. In addition, the sharpest young minds in Muslim nations are studying in our universities. God has brought them halfway around the world -- and calls upon us to go halfway across town to befriend and evangelize them. These people have been taught by Hollywood that Americans have no regard for God or family. Being welcomed into the heart of an affectionate and hospitable American Christian family is an eye-opener for these future cultural leaders.

BTW -- this is a perfect project for home school families, since it can combine language learning with cross-cultural communication. If you show a sincere interest in another person's language, you have a superhighway to their hearts.

Thank you for the challenge. I need to get involved in reaching out to Muslims.

I was a conversation partner for an Egyptian student learning English last year. I'm studying Arabic as well and after I was done tutoring him in English, he did the same for me in Arabic. I really love the Arabic language, I think that was what really got him interested in spending time with a foreign student.

If you go to the Middle East, at least in Saudi Arabia (no I have not been there, this is what I've read), you'll find that people assume foreigners don't know Arabic. So tell them ahead of time if you do--they'll really like it.
