First, thousands of ethnic Albanian muslims fought along side the muslim Kosovars in Hitler's 21st SS Skanderbeg. So they're certainly part of the calculation.

The Croats were the most enthusiastic pro-Nazis in the Balkans. I've already pointed out to you that they were co-belligerents amongst the Axis powers, but you choose to still contest the issue as if simple repetition of the word "Skanderbeg" were sufficient counterpoint.

It isn't. And there's no further point in debating the subject with one unwilling to tailor their opinion based upon the facts, rather than excluding those facts which don't suit their opinion.

Sorry, but I don't consider Wikipedia a reliable source.

I could at this point chase down the relevant quotes elsewhere, but there really doesn't seem to be much point in it. Nazi Germany was a Christian nation, and it was Christians who perpetrated the Holocaust. Attempting to make it appear as if the Muslims out-Nazi'd the Nazis is simple foolishness - the only folks I'm aware of that the Germans recoiled from for taking things too far were the Croats, in their war against their Orthodox bretheren.

That assertion is simply not supported by the numbers or anything you've cited. There were Croat Nazi units and Croat Partisan units, but the only muslim units were Nazi. Muslim members of the three Balkan nazi units outnumbered all other Balkan groups and ethnicities. Muslims were even a majority in the 23rd SS Kama - the largest Croat unit.

Nazi Germany was a Christian nation,

Then why did Hitler call Christianity "an invention of sick brains" when he was its Fuehrer?
