The group took part in Bicycle Week with the motto “Cycling Unites,” riding tandem bicycles with one rabbi and one imam on each bike, reports the Berliner (http://bit.ly/1ECkEaC).
Cyclists started at the Brandenburg Gate and visited Jewish and Muslim institutions throughout the ride.
Project meet2respect, a campaign that promotes bringing together different faiths and providing education, with a specific focus on bringing together Jewish and Muslim faiths, led the ride (http://bit.ly/1OqYnVa).
Cyclists Ferid Heider, an imam in various Berlin mosque communities, and Daniel Alter, a Berlin rabbi, work together via meet2respect and tour education and community events in Berlin promoting peace.
Hundreds of cyclists joined the rabbis and imams in the ride and followed them on their tour.

This is great news.
It would be even greater, if at the end of their prayers in the mosque, they would stop finishing with, “Death to America, Death to Israel, and Death to the Jews!”
Ya think?
To #1 - Your remark, was dumb; the only ones who state that are the Iranians, at their rallies.
