I have a question though...what is saving someone from harm? Not allowing them to marry Muslims? Because EVERY religion has fanatics that practice their religion incorrectly and twist it for their own personal gain. Islam shouldn't be signaled out.
It saves people - particularly women - who don't know how easy it is to go to a foreign country, and, due to their naivete, end up in a position where they could lose custody of their children, their citizenship, and possibly their lives.

In this case, yes, I've singled out Islam - because of what happened to "Sarai". Had she gone to, say, Russia, and Orthodoxy had done the same thing to her, I would be outspoken about Orthodoxy.
