“To Paris From Pakistan” – Muslims Show Solidarity With Victims Of Paris Attacks

A group of young Muslim men have come together to show their support for the victim of the Paris attacks.  Five Pakistani men, created a short yet thought-provoking video detailing why they hope they won't be tarnished with the same brush as the Paris attackers. The men have asked that the video be shared as much as possible in order for it to reach Europe - thus far it has been shared over 19,000 times and viewed by more than 400,000 people. In the video, the men explain that they are just as shocked and horrified at the attacks as people all over the world, but that they are not apologetic about it: "We cannot possibly be held responsible for the actions of a few deranged individuals who somehow claim to be like us. "That’s like blaming all Germans for the actions of Hitler. Or, for that matter, blaming Chinese people for the actions of Mao. Or, blaming the Russians for the actions of Stalin. They remind us that they can relate all to well with acts of terror: "Incidents like these are really common in Pakistan. Infact, less than a year ago a school in Peshawar was attacked, were more than 130 children were brutally killed. They conclude: "And when we go to bed at night, we fall asleep. Hoping and praying, to wake up to a better world, for all of us." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bo23vfPpXJs Video via YouTube/DesiVines
