Not this again. Those "tent revivals" were far more low-key than any Christian proselytizing effort I've ever seen. They weren't well-advertised, you walked in without anyone urging you, you listened if you wanted, and left when you wanted without any pressure to stay.

I wasn't there, and I certainly wouldn't argue this characterization, but the point of the story is that the program collected the names of between 1,000 and 3,000 servicemen, and that some of these people were subsequently contacted in the U.S. and solicited to participate in an al Qaeda operation.

I was there. To me, the gross mischaracterization of the tents casts into doubt the veracity of the rest of the article.
