I'm a Muslim, and I'm ready to sign up to protect the churches, since i came here i saw nothing but respect from the dutch community and a really decent life in the netherlands,we have to show those criminals that we had it, they act in the name of our religion, so we are the ones who should fight them back.
where can i get in contact with those organizations?

I am happy to see Muslims not only speak out against "Muslin terrorists" but also to be proactive in protecting Coptic church. This is a very hopeful sign.

This is what should be happening all throughout the world. I'm glad that Muslims are finally going to extra length to clear their name, which has been ruined by both terrorism and right-wing parties of Europe.

Congratulations to the three Dutch Muslim Organisations.
Would that there were more clear thinking moderates like this from ALL denominations. The TERRORISTS are the real threats not the religion.
Respect

I am happy to read this. If there is a similar threat on the Jewish community of the Netherlands will they also offer to help?

There has always been and will always be Muslims, Christians, Jews, Hindus, Atheists, Agnostics,....regardless of religion, race, creed, gender for that matter, ready and willing to put their lives at risk to protect minorities...the problem is that this is never big time news and never gets enough Media attention because it is boring good decent human nature. Only sensationalism gets blown out of proportion by media outlets because that is what sells. I personally find it patronizing and tiring to hear that Muslims are never doing enough to denounce Terrorism.
