Muslims have been a horror in Africa as long as they've been there. As Somenole seems to be pointing out horror in Africa is hardly limited to Islam. Christianity hasn't made much if any dent in the horror.Â
At this point in history Islam is the most backwards intolerant and violent major religion on the planet and it isn't close. In history Christianity often hasn't been much better.

What the Belgians did there merits mention and discussion, but I don't think it is related to current events very clearly at all.
The Western nations which are mostly Christian have engaged in the most intense and deadly warfare of the 20th century.

Enmity.

Then shouldn't the history of Islam justify their eradication?

Somenole cites atrocities that occurred 150yrs ago to excuse the hostility and hatred toward Christians today. A more accurate (and honest) explanation would be the Congo is largely a failed state and uncivilized.

Well he is a White guilt liberal, as well as an Islamopologist.
Any other reaction would frankly be out of character.

What you reference justifies... The United Nations team also reported a series of gruesome, specific crimes: Attackers tossed a 2-year-old into a septic tank; raped a woman after decapitating her 3-year-old child; and mutilated many victims, including pregnant women. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/12/world...anity.html

It begins 150 years ago. But then look into the Second Congo War. 1998 and continuing. Christians and muslims at war. Basically, yeah, a failed state based on a imperial error.
Bad people on both sides. But your simplistic explanation is bs.

If not for colonialism and apartheid, African nations would be the most advanced in the world and probably would have put men on Mars by this time.
