Can you provide a list of mosques attacked by non-Muslims? You do that and I will give you a list temples, churches and synagogues desecrated by Muslims. The first place on the list will be the Kaba which Muhammad vandalized by destroying the sacred idols of the Meccans.

Fighting back is not bad at all. That is why the Meccans sent army to Badr to protect their trade.
>>We, moderate muslims, are not coward. For instance, if you would come to our mosque to stir up fire, we would definitely fight back to defend our mosque to be burned up by you……..<<
You keep talking about non-Muslims attacking your mosques. Give some examples.
