Jews and Christians were in the Middle east and even saudi arabia before the islamic invasions. The Middle east has been occupied for over 1400 years. The least muslums could do in the ME is to treat the christian and jewish minority with decency and respect like the muslums are being treated here. That is what the Pope is fighting for : RECIPROCITY. It is a two way street.
