They're converting Muslim kids. They're taking kids who have lost everything and probably don't know strong religious convictions from a hole in the ground and sticking them in places where they know they'll be taught never to question the nice man holding the Bible.

Do people like the good folks at WorldHelp even stop to think about why radical Islamists hate the West? It's because of shit like this. They think that we're at war with Islam as a whole, and when we send missionaries into lands we conquered (or liberated, depending on the POV) or forcefeed Muslim children Christianity, do they think it's going to do anything positive?
