'The "survival of the world" is at stake if Muslims and Christians do not make peace with each other, leaders of the Muslim world will warn the Pope and other Christian leaders today.
In an unprecedented open letter signed by 138 leading scholars from every sect of Islam, the Muslims plead with Christian leaders "to come together with us on the common essentials of our two religions" and spell out the similarities between passages of the Bible and the Koran.'

I think we can all agree that the survival of the world is not at stake due to any putative contest between Christianity and Islam. The survival of Islam may be at stake, but not the world. Lets face it, the combined might of the the muzzy world can't take back Israel, the teeny weeny country right in the middle of Islamdom. So I'm guessing Poland, Canada and Peru aren't much at threat...
Most Islamic countries have trouble defending their own territory (see Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia) and keeping hold of it (see Pakistan), let alone providing any threat to us. But grandiosity is a bequest of Arab culture to Islam in general. It gives us all light relief and a chance to look into a closed and feeble world. I won't be digging myself an air-raid shelter just yet, if you don't mind.
