  1. I hear so many saying how after the massacre, Christians turned to Islam. You hear them telling you, how Muslims saved people who were being slaughtered. But you do not hear one story of a Christian saving one person. I have searched the internet. I have looked everywhere for one person who thinks this genocide was an Islamic jihad. But there is not one. you might think one person – even perhaps one liar or a conspiracy nut, might be saying it. But there is nothing on the internet. No one. This tells me that any mention of this event is being tagged and removed. Nothing on YouTube. Nothing on Facebook, Nothing on google. you try – see if you can find. Where are all the conspiracies or at least one person? It is not my belief that Christians would turn to Islam so easily after the genocide unless they were forced, as many are in many Muslim countries. but we are being told here that muslims were not on a jihad, but actually helping non-muslims and the Christians who were being slaughtered/ it does seem suspicious – that there is no record of any kind of radical, or zealot amungst the muslims in this whole scenario. your thoughts?
