I’ll bet it’s really politically correct e.g. bad Christians, saintly Muslims etc. etc.
I saw a program on the corsairs who used to raid Europe, including the Irish and British coasts right up until after the Napoleonic wars, and enslave their captives. One Moroccan historian explained the supposedly-exalted position of one Englishwoman who ended up as one of the Emir’s wives. You wouldn’t get away with making the same comments about Jefferson Davis!
