Following the attack on a Catholic church in Rouen, France where a priest Father Jacques Hamel was killed, Muslims across the country attended Catholic mass services in a gesture of solidarity.
The head of France's Muslim council, Anouar Kbibech said, "We are all Catholics of France."
Mohammed Karabila, President of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray said, "Today we wanted to show physically, by kissing the family of Jacques Hamel, by kissing his Grace Lebrun in front of everybody, so that they know that the two communities are united"
Muslims in Italy also attended mass on Sunday. Three Imams sat in the front row of Santa Maria Trastevere Church in Rome.

Why does the head of the Muslim Council in France say, "We're all Catholics"? What does he mean?
What does this story show us about people who follow different faith around the world?

Why is this an example of No Outsiders?
