    Where were Muslims during this country's Woman's Suffrage era?

    Islam gave women equal standing to men almost 1500 years ago. Significantly, Islam gave women the rights to gain employment and OWN property. 100 years ago in the west, a woman was considered a man's chattel.

    Where were Muslims during World War II?

    In WWI (yes I, not II) the Allies had control over several Muslim territories. The French use Muslim Albanians in their front lines, saving their own soldiers. If an Albanian battalion returned defeated from any battle, the French generals would line them all up in a row and execute every tenth man at point blank range.
    The allies forced the Muslims of North Africa to fight the Muslims of the Middle East. These were people connected by a common belief, people who considered each other brothers. They were executed if they resisted calls to arms. This also applies to Indian Muslims occupied by the French.
    This was so bad that the German used it to their advantage. They built a mosque in their Prisoner of War camps and would separate the captured Muslims (fighting for the allies) from the Non-Muslims. They would feed and cloth them and let them pray and treat them nicely, in an attempt to get them on their side.

    Perhaps the author should dig a little deeper.
