Interfaith dialogue has become an important exercise in finding the right words to overcome both extreme violence and ordinary misunderstanding. True progress, however, is best measured in deeds.

A risky move!

I know there are some christian church in the middle east, but they are all held in secret. They knew if they're caught with christian materials or preaching about jesus and stuff then they could be punished or killed.
 
Then Osama Bin Laden gave a UN big warning afterwards.
Something is going to happen really soon?!?
