Egyptian evangelist Father Zakaria Botros is one of the most controversial figures in the Middle East. He is a Coptic priest who has led thousands of Muslims to Christ via the Internet and television -- and militant Muslims want him dead because of that, according to the Christian Broadcast Network (CBN) website.
Fr. Zakaria, 75, is perhaps the most hated man in the Middle East. He is confronting Islam with an "in your face style" of TV and Internet evangelism.
His weekly 90-minute television program, Truth Talk, airs Friday during prime time throughout the Middle East.It is broadcast on the al-Hayat satellite channel and is watched by nearly 60 million Arabs.
Zakaria's Internet discussion show, Pal Talk, is broadcast online for six hours every Tuesday and Thursday.
Today, he is hiding. Al Qaeda terrorists have placed a $60 million bounty on his head, and that has made him cautious, but not afraid.
