Ouch - please, better don't!
The author does not seem to know the quran's regulations for living with the people of the book too well. It's a regulation between masters (Muhammedans) and servants (Jews, Christians), generous only as long as the servants are obedient, and submissive.The letter may be well intended, and is arguing quote reasonably, but the writer is a little misled about Islam's drives and immense motivational power. He is wondering for the same reasons why European intellectuals and bureaucrats are wondering why their oh so reasonable solutions do not work.So, here we have an echo that will fade unheared.
