Let's Examine Mass Killings in Recent History and Islamism

• The Muslim Turks murdered, either directly or indirectly, between 1.5 and 2.5 million Christians between 1894 and 1924. It was also a jihad, or "holy" war.

• Sudan, 1953–2004: Some 4 million dead.

  Racism and Islamism in Khartoum... Perhaps the most destructive civil conflict since World War II and one of the longest wars in Africa's history, it saw the Christian and animist South pitted against the Muslim, Arab-speaking North. As many as 2.5 million people have died since the second phase of the civil war began in 1983—and likely more than four million if we consider its earlier phase (1955–72).

   

• Intra-Arab Muslim conflict, North Yemen (1962–1970): 200,000.

  "Since 1965, the Libyan-backed Front for the Liberation of Occupied South Yemen and the National Liberation Front had unleashed brutal violence on British forces in the south. In the end, the conflict claimed some 200,000 lives ."

• Anti-Igbo Christian genocide in Nigeria: 3 million , 1967–70 (Biafra).

• Islamic Pakistan: 3 million killed in the 1971 genocide . It was also a a jihad, or "holy" war.

• Starting in 1975, the PLO plunged Lebanon into fifteen years of civil war and anarchic violence that eventually took 150,000 lives.

• Jordan's King Hussein killed more Palestinians in 11 days than Israel could kill in 20 years, former Israeli Defence Minister Moshe Dayan is quoted by authors as having said. It was none other than Pakistan's General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq, then a brigadier, who helped King Hussein carry out the massacre of 25,000 Palestinians in what is now known as Black September of 1970.

• 1979-2024: almost a quarter of a million dead at the hand of radical Islam. Including some 3,000 in the US on 911, and Arab Muslim "Palestinians" were dancing on the street to gloat.

• Tajikistan, 1992–1996: 50,000. A five-year civil war in which at least 50,000 Tajiks were killed. Secularists fought Islamists.

• Nigeria: 62,000 Nigerian Christians murdered since 2000 . Genocide Watch, 29 February 2024: Since 2000, 62,000 Christians in Nigeria have been murdered in genocide perpetrated by Islamist jihadist groups including Boko Haram.

• Arab Islamist attempted genocide: Since the 1920s , there were the screams of "we will drink the blood of the Jews" and claims that "Muhammad's religion was born with the sword." Haj Amin al-Husseini coined "itbakh [Adbakh] al-yahud"—some 20 years prior to his pact with Hitler. This was followed by anti-Jewish murders in 1936–39 and intensified violence in 1947.

  "Palestinian" Arabs whose leadership is openly genocidal even in its charter were about to "kill as many as possible" , according to documents captured after October 7 .

  They were stopped by Israelis who have been fighting a "dead baby strategy" system using its people as cannon fodder . This is discussed in The Brutal Calculation of Hamas's Leader . Further reading: Gaza Chief's Brutal Calculation: Civilian Bloodshed Will Help Hamas. [The Gaza genoLIE propaganda only emboldens them to continue these methods].

  This is the reason they have prevented evacuation urged by the IDF. An expert analysis shows that, even using Hamas numbers, Israel has taken significant measures to prevent civilian harm, producing a lower civilian-to-combatant ratio than comparable cases of urban warfare, while Hamas has taken measures to place civilians in harm's way through human shielding. It also shows that accurate casualty figures are not generated daily during active warfare.

  The GGG—"Genocidal Gaza Government"—vowed to repeat October 7 "again and again" until annihilation.

  Atrocious attacks have been celebrated en masse , while official Palestinian Authority schools celebrated October 7. 

• Uganda under Islamic Idi Amin, 1971–79: 300,000.

• Iraq: Up to a million dead under dictator Saddam Hussein .

• Islamic Turkey, 1984 onward: The Turkish-Kurdish conflict resulted in nearly 40,000 deaths .

• Ethiopia (Tigray War): An estimated 500,000 to 600,000 deaths from direct violence and related famine between 2020 and 2022.

• Muslim Somali Civil War (2009–present): Estimated 500,000+ deaths, including deaths from famine and disease.

• Kashmir Conflict: Islamic Pakistan vs. India (2001–present): Estimated 50,000–100,000 deaths .

• Sudan: Two Arab-Muslim countries, as well as the Islamic Republic of Iran, are involved in the ongoing Sudan conflict, which has claimed more than 400,000 lives since 2023. "The 400,000 figure was compiled before the massacre of tens of thousands of people in El Fasher" in 2025.

• Muslim Yemen: 377,000 deaths in Yemen between 2015 and the beginning of 2022 , with 85,000 children in Yemen reported to have starved to death between 2015 and 2018 .

• Syria: 618,000 to 700,000 deaths by Alawite-Shiite, Hezbollah, Islamic Relublic of Iran forces and Sunni Islamists between 2011 and 2024.

• (Russia–Ukraine: Current estimates cited here put deaths at approximately 400,000, with up to 1.8 million casualties between 2022 and 2026).

Islamic Republic of Iran: Massacres of Its Own Citizens

Before 2026: Some 140,000.

January 2026: Some 37,000 or 80,000 .

No. 1 Is...

Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC)

The total death toll of the conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is estimated at more than 6 million people since the regional wars began in 1996. This makes it one of the deadliest humanitarian disasters in the world.

The modern conflict features distinct death tolls driven by separate rebel factions, alongside a severe humanitarian crisis.

Modern Rebel Violence

The Allied Democratic Forces (ADF / ISCAP): The militant Islamist group kills hundreds of civilians each year through targeted village massacres, attacks on night vigils, and church attacks. Organizations such as the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED) recorded at least 450 civilian deaths attributed to the ADF in just the first quarter of 2025. Individual massacres, such as the April 2026 attack in Bafwakoa and the September 2025 slaughter in Ntoyo, routinely claim between 40 and 100 lives per incident.

The M23 Rebel Offensive: The Rwanda-backed M23 rebel group launched major territorial offensives in late 2024 and early 2025, culminating in the capture of Goma. UN estimates indicate that 900 to 2,000 people were killed in that specific offensive alone. Ongoing operations involving heavy artillery and drones have resulted in thousands of additional casualties, including a single multi-week period in late 2025 that claimed roughly 1,500 civilian lives.

The Broader Humanitarian Crisis

Data tracked by the International Rescue Committee (IRC) demonstrates that less than 10% of total deaths in the DRC conflict are caused by direct physical violence. The overwhelming majority of the death toll is driven by war-induced deprivation.

Disease & Malnutrition: Massive displacement—with 5.7 million people internally displaced—has shattered the region's healthcare and agricultural systems. Preventable and treatable conditions such as malaria, diarrhoea, pneumonia, and severe malnutrition act as the primary silent killers.

Total Deaths in Congo: 5.4 Million

With Christians particularly targeted by Muslims.
