I don't really see Christians moving into Arab lands.

By proxy...Arabs see western support of Israeli occupation of Palestinian land no longer as a means of self defense, but as a land grab.

Missionaries are still in danger in Arab countries as well.

There is no question that we are dealing with a less tolerant environment...but it is not a secret. I remember the two ladies that had to be rescued in Afghanistan...they were supposedly missionaries, but were in fact proselytizing against the law, and putting their lives in danger, the lives of the Afghans who were being "converted" and ultimately the lives of the soldiers who had to rescue them. The kick in the butt? They were recently on a news magazine and said that they were going back.
