I would have to disagree with your answer about Africa, Chaim, because it sounds too much like what Evangelical Christians always say: "just wait for the End Times to come, then it'll all be sorted out and we'll all live in peace in heaven" or whatever. Judaism is supposed to be about helping the world here and now isn't it? We have to do our part to improve the world as we know it. Compared to defeating Islam, which you surely would say is important, solving Africa would be easy. One mercenary army could overtake an average African country and restore a Rhodesian-style state. There are important resources there that need to be tapped and, although some might call me crazy, I still believe the natives of Africa can be civilized.
