They already have, in Egypt to build a Christian church you need a security permit and there is no display of the cross or any other symbol allowed. In Saudi Arabia you simply cannot build one. Oddly enough in Saddam's Iraq there were churches and christians.

So to the muslims in Switzerland "Before you see to the speck in thy brother's eye, remove the beam that is in thine."
