Most of the times Genocide is misinterpreted by aggressor as self defence but as defined by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum: Genocide is an internationally recognized crime where acts are committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group. We should take it as authentic as the biggest known genocide was committed against the Jews by the Christian Terrorist or Hitler of Nazi Germany.

The post-9/11 wars and related violence have resulted in significant casualties across the Muslim, Christian, and Jewish communities, though precise numbers are difficult to determine due to varying methodologies, under-reporting, and the complexity of the conflicts. Here’s a broad overview based on available estimates:
Muslim Casualties (Majority of Victims)
– Iraq War (2003–2021): Estimates range from 300,000 to 1 million+ civilian deaths (Iraq Body Count, Lancet studies), mostly Muslims.
– Afghanistan War (2001–2021): Around 70,000–100,000+ Afghan civilians killed (Brown University’s Costs of War project).
– Syrian Civil War (2011–present): Over 300,000 civilians killed (UN estimates), mostly Muslims.
– Pakistan (Drone Strikes & Terrorism): 80,000+ killed in terror attacks and counter-terror ops (South Asia Terrorism Portal and various sources).
– Yemen War (2015–present): 150,000+ deaths (UN estimate), mostly Muslims.
– Palestine Wars: more than 60,000 Muslims have been killed in Gaza offensive by Israel which is been termed as Genocide and estimated numbers in Palestine Occupation by Israel is in hundreds of thousands.

– Other Conflicts (Somalia, Libya, Burma, India etc.): Tens of thousands more.
Total Muslim deaths likely exceed 1 million, mostly civilians.
Christian Casualties (Targeted Violence & War)
– Iraq & Syria (ISIS Genocide): Tens of thousands of Christians killed or displaced (e.g., ISIS targeted Assyrians, Chaldeans).
– Nigeria (Boko Haram, Fulani Militants): 10,000+ Christians killed since 2001 (Christian persecution monitors).
– Pakistan (Blasphemy Laws, Attacks): Dozens killed in targeted attacks (e.g., church bombings).
– Egypt (Coptic Christians): Hundreds killed in sectarian violence and terror attacks (e.g., 2017 Palm Sunday bombings).
Estimated Christian deaths: Likely tens of thousands (exact numbers are disputed but doesn’t exceed 30,000).

Jewish Casualties
– Israel-Palestine Conflict: 1,000+ Israeli civilians killed in attacks (e.g., suicide bombings, stabbings) since 2001 (Israeli govt. data).
– Global Anti-Semitic Attacks: Smaller numbers in Europe/US (e.g.,2015 Hypercacher attack in Paris, 2018 Pittsburgh synagogue shooting).
Jewish deaths are less than 3 thousand, mostly in Israel.
Key Notes:
1. Muslims are the vast majority of victims (due to large-scale wars in Muslim-majority countries, these wars are controversial as the aim of these wars have mostly been to neutralize any kind of threat to Israel).
2. Christians face targeted persecution (e.g., ISIS, Boko Haram).
3. Jewish casualties are smaller in number but significant in impact as Western Media is mostly controlled by the Jewish lobby.
4. Data is incomplete—many deaths go unrecorded in war zones and the number of Muslims killed is much higher yet they are called the terrorists and killing them en masse is not a Genocide any where in the world.
The justice system is non existent and power controls the narrative.
It is essential that weaker nations must stop relying on UN and work aggressively for their self defence. A better option could be a NATO like organization of the weaker with determination to defend their citizens as power prevent wars.
