And, there are the good people of the world. If this happened in every city and every neighborhood of the world, it would make a difference. Will it? Not a chance.

See What Happened When Hundreds of Muslims Surrounded a Synagogue to Show the ‘True Face’ of Islam

A large group of Muslims made a powerful and symbolic gesture showing they want to protect Norway’s Jewish community, gathering Saturday hand-in-hand to form a “ring of peace” around a synagogue.

Muslim youths organized the peace vigil in solidarity with the Jewish community following deadly shootings at a free speech event and at a synagogue last weekend in neighboring Denmark.

The English-language website The Local reported that more than 1,000 Muslims and Jews gathered and formed a symbolic, defensive ring around Oslo’s main synagogue. Many of those who attended were teenage girls wearing headscarves.

Video showed Jewish leaders chanting Sabbath prayers outside as the multi-faith group holding hands looked on during the chilly night.

The Times of Israel quoted an advertisement for the event which read, “Islam is about protecting our brothers and sisters, regardless of which religion they belong to. … Islam is about rising above hate and never sinking to the same level as the haters. Islam is about defending each other.”

Zeeshan Abdullah, 37, one of the organizers told those gathered, “We want to demonstrate that Jews and Muslims do not hate each other.”

“We do not want individuals to define what Islam is for the rest of us,” he said according to the Associated Press. “This shows that there are many more peace-mongers than warmongers.”

“There is still hope for humanity, for peace and love across religious differences and background,” he said.

Norwegian Jewish community leader Ervin Kohn said the demonstration against anti-Semitism “fills us with hope” especially because “it’s a grassroots movement of young Muslims.”

Reflecting the ongoing threats against European Jews, the Local reported there was a heavy police presence at the event, including sharp shooters positioned on surrounding buildings. The event ended with no incident.

The Local quoted other Muslim speakers who said Islam was a religion of peace and that “it’s true face” was not terrorism.

Police named Omar Abdel Hamid El-Hussein, 22, a Danish citizen of Palestinian origin, as the shooter responsible for last Saturday’s attacks, in which two men were killed, one at a Copenhagen synagogue.

So, therefore, be tolerant and don't moon your neighbor just because "violent extremists" killed random people.

huh? why the Muslims be hating on the Jews and Christians?

What's the dealio ?

Jews and Christians are listed 'in the book' and as such, are to be left alone. No, I swear, it's in the Koran.

Cannot count a Jew or a Christian as an infidel. Cannot.

The muhommed islam folk came after the Jewish, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and then, the Jews missed the train when Jesus happened by. The Christians latched onto Jesus and he was the most popular thing until John Lennon declared the Beatles to be more popular. But, earlier, the arab dude muhammon thought it would be cool to also be a prophet so he called god and got an update on the Jews and Christians, and became world religion 2.0.
