Jews offering holiday greetings attacked

A group of thugs attack some Jews on the New York subway for saying "Happy Hanukkah" ... saved by who? A Muslim!

"No one else helped up, except Hassan," Maria Parsheva said. "No one else on the train."

"A Muslim-American saved us, when our own people were on the train and didn't do anything," Adler said. "Someone who in the media often gets painted as the enemy of Israel and the Jews, this is a...Sunni Muslim, this is someone that jumped in, he knew we were Jews, to help us." - Walter

But Askari, who is studying to be an accountant, shrugged off the praise saying:

"I just did what I had to do," he recalled. "My parents raised me that way... In Islam, it teaches you to be helpful to your fellow man--to be kind, courteous."

"...if anyone saves a life, it's as if he saved the life of all mankind..." [Qur'an, 5:32]

Please realise the media protrays us Muslims to be intolerant, bloodthirsty, racist fascists.. and this is so far from the truth! If you could only spend one day with true practicing Muslims, you will come to see we are not like other people, we are good people. Takecare.
