Were 90,000 Muslim killed for their faith by Christians?
One could argue so.
For example America & Russian killed a lot of ISIS fighters because of their faith.
A movement historically gained by the sword, spread by the sword, and maintained by the sword.
Martyrs that are garantied a place in christ's heaven if they stay true to their faith until the moment of death.
The Muslims killed by Christians were killed, because they were militants killing innocent people.
The Christians were killed by Muslims were innocent and the Muslims were just being good Muslims.
