St Peter role prompts death threat

The headline doesn't quite match the article and the quote here
"Omar Sharif has stated that he has embraced the crusader idolatry," it said. "He is a crusader who is offending Islam and Muslims and receiving applause from the Italian people. I give you this advice, brothers, you must kill him."

Unless we are to understand that playing the part of St.Peter means that he is being assumed to have partially converted back to Christianity? What statement is being referred to?

Anyway, let's not allow these questions to miss also the fact that these are very nasty people with a concept of God's honour that drives towards horrible barbarity. As I was praying this morning this article came to mind with the thought that we should ask God to turn their hearts and bless them with an experience of God that will change their spite and bring repentance.
