I like this because there are many ayat that tell us not to take the nonbelievers as friends/helpers/protectors, etc and to treat them harshly and things like this that can EASILY be taken OUT OF CONTEXT and warped to make us out to be an awful bunch. This simple little ayat says that as long as they're not fighting with us, or have pushed us out of your homes, we should be nice and treat them fairly (i.e keep the peace).

(60:8) Allah does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who fought not against you on account of religion nor drove you out of your homes. Verily, Allah loves those who deal with equity.
