yawn, and there are millions of Europeans (Bosnians, Albanians, Azeris etc.) who are Muslimes too.
Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, etc. were lands conquered by Islamm and forced to convert -- just as Syria and Egypt were majority Christian lands until the 7th century and even later.
Indonesia however was converted peacefully byMuslim traders -- because the Dutch couldn't be bothered converting people. Oh, if only the Spanish had reached there and taken over the psice island instead of hte Dutch then we would have had a christian nation like the Phillipines. Ditto for the Portuguese if they had taken over the entire Indian sub-continent.
