... then why do you keep bringing up Nazi Germany's 21,000 Muslim troops? Since, the Germans had millions of soldiers, these 21,000 would be, by your standards an "inconsequential" "tiny minority" of their overall forces.

Apples and oranges. 2% of a military unit, as with the FFL forces you describe as being "muslim," is a tiny fraction. With the German officers included, the jihadi SS units would've been somewhere in the 99% muslim range.

Apples and oranges again. 20,000 of approx. 18 million is a tiny fraction of the overall troop strength. Whereas Muslims constituted a plurality of the FFL's African troops, a group that was itself a significant portion of the FFL.
