The linked articles about an interview with Mosab Hassan Yousef caught my attention, particularly the first one.

First, understand that these articles are written about a man who was Islamic and is the son of a Hamas founder.  He knows what Islam is like and what it teaches.  And he knows what Hamas is about - and much of what it does.  He even spent time in a Hamas prison, so he has experienced their brutality first-hand.  After that experience, he began working with Shin Bet (Israeli's security service) and gravitating toward Christianity.  I guess there's nothing quite like experiencing the wrath of Allah through those who serve him and carry out his commands to make you appreciate the love of the One True God!  What really caught my attention in his interview were these statements:

1. "The biggest terrorist is Allah of the Quran, the god of the Quran, the god of Islam."
2. "The more closely Muslims follow Allah and Muhammad, the more they become 'inhuman' terrorists."
3. "The fight against terrorism ... is actually a war between two gods. The god of the Quran from one side, and the God of the Bible from the other side."
4. "People are doing the will of their gods. It's the evil in the Islamic system that forces them to become inhuman."
5. "A god who teaches you how to hate and he says about himself that 'I am the deceit [sic]' is different than a God who tells you 'I love you -- no matter what you do, you're my son.'"
6. "Becoming a Christian ... wasn't a matter of leaving Islam for another religions. ... I am not a religious person today. I am a Jesus Christ follower. ... It's a matter of a relationship."

This guy understands what it is really all about!

Yousef really nailed the issue when he said it "is actually a war between two gods."  Of course, we know there is really only One God, but Satan is "the god of this world."  All of the struggles boil down to which God we choose to serve - God or the god of this world in all of the many forms and ways in which he manifests his presence and his hatred of God's people - Jews & Christians.
