Because it lacks specific sourcing or explanation of how you arrived at that number.

I told you that 1/3rd was a conservative estimate.

You will also notice significant disparity in muslim populations for each of the colonies you named, ranging from as low as 20% to as high as 100%.

Funny comment, coming from someone who tries to sneak Gabon's 1% muslim population into a description of all of French Equatorial Africa. Remember that the numbers you gave ranged from 1% to 50%.

Here are the average recruitment breakdown from 1920-1947:

Upper Volta -- 22.01%

French Soudan -- 20.49%

Senegal -- 16.52%

Guinea -- 15.77%

Ivory Coast -- 14.30

Niger -- 1.84%

Mauritania -- 0.67%

[Togo is not included in the figures because it was not part of the French West Africa colony, but rather it was a League of Nations trust territory administered by France.]

Typical lie from a chronic liar. I "snuck" no such thing in, unless, of course, you deny that Gabon is only 1% muslim.

1. What's your source?
2. What are the precise numbers? 22.01% means very little without the number it is a percentage of.
3. 1920-1947 is a long time, most of it OUTSIDE of the WWII period. The troops in question were 1939-1945 only, so provide those numbers.
