This happened on a bus, Al Shabaab likes to attack buses filled with non Muslims, they've done it before. Unlike ISIS they don't seem to kill Muslims. This time they got on a bus and told the Muslims to separate themselves from the Christians but they wouldn't. They shielded them and were prepared to die. Nobody died this time.
I am Muslim but I'm not trying to promote "see Muslims are good people", if you think they're all bad then good for you. But it doesn't matter if it was Christians defending Muslims, Jews defending atheists this is how humans should act towards each other. This was a very brave act.
Would you have done the same thing?

Simply put, it's our media's fault for our view on Islam. As a form of Christian myself, some of the nicest people I've ever met were Muslim, my doctor was Muslim, my teacher was Muslim, and all are respectable figures. I study evolution with a Muslim, and he is possibly the nicest person I have ever met. I guess the saying "a few bad apples spoil the whole bunch" is definitely true here.
