"It seems there are some here who may be ideologically loathe to laud a "heroic Muslim"..." Right. This story comes along, thinly attributed and next to impossible to verify in regard to its claim...but for you, it doesn't smack of propaganda, to the inability of some to accept the genuine act of a heroic Jew. For you, it unmasks all the muslim haters. Hey, you see muslim haters on these threads? Join CAIR.

You’re right, it’s thinly attributed. That was my first thought—but we may not ever know the truth. But do you deny that it’s possible for a Muslim to commit an unselfish act for another person?

Did you read the entire comment, or were you just looking for a point to argue about?

Here's the earlier quote:

" It seems there are some here who may be ideologically loathe to laud a 'heroic Muslim.'

It is debatable whether the movement was deliberately to save the guy's life, but it does seem that many are having a hard time believing that there could be such a thing as a hero who happens to have self-identified as Muslim."

You read the part in bold? That strongly suggests that it could have been propaganda--they sure didn't seem to go into the details. But it does seem that some people here, not necessarily you, are not willing to even allow for such a thing as a "heroic Muslim."
