The former Prime Minister of Malaysia decided to opine on Twitter about how its really the French who were the bad guys by insulting Muslims, forcing the Muslims to murder French citizens.
One Tweet was removed but captured for posterity.
Really? Millions?
How far back can we go?
Can Europe claim vengence for the Moorish conquest of Iberia?
What about the atrocities committed by the Ottoman Empire during the conquest of Eastern Europe as far as Vienna?
What about modern acts of terrorism?
If they want you play that game I see their knives and I raise them W88s.
Can’t wait to enact revenge for the invasions of the huns and mongols 😀
It is well established, that both parties committed atrocities in Europe so by that logic attacking their descendants is fair game, right?

I never understood that logic: “You fathers fathers fathers fathers fathers […] father was cruel so I can be cruel to you!”
Something about the sins of the father not being the sins of the son comes to mind…
Whoops! Wrong religion!

My first thought was, “Notice these headlines say ‘France’ and not ‘Poland’. That little dust up in 1683 must still sting a bit.”
Muslims in North Africa raided Europe for slaves for centuries. That whole “Shores of Tripoli” bit in the Marine Hymn is about punishing them for caring to take Americans.
