Islam v Christianity

I think I know now what middle eastern countries were so afraid of when we liberated Afganistan and Iraq.

They were afraid that the West would now routinely feel like interfering in their affairs using miliary strength.

They may have been right. Because there are a bunch of people -- I note that, in the article I read, they were mostly European -- who think that the West should use military strength to free this Afghani man who might be executed for having rejected Islam and embraced Christianity.
