At any other time, I'd agree with you.  Why single out any one group?  Well, the truth is that this particular group are being openly threatened with murder and, in fact, BEING murdered in their places of worship.  There's a political party leadership candidate trying to promote intolerance of immigrants to further her agenda.  Islamophobia IS an issue and it IS a current issue.

When Jewish Synagogues were being vandalized  a few years back, there were similar motions and cries to protect that group.  I see no reason when Muslims are being victimized that the same sort of symbolic gestures shouldn't be made.
