Sudan civil war is for the diamonds. It's not for religion. The same goes with most of the countries you mentioned except Iraq and Afghanistan.
And I am not preaching. I just stated my opinion. If you have problem with that don't read it. Also you have a lot of hate and you must not judge not just a country but many because of some crazy lunatics.
It is the same as to blame the hole German, Japanese or Italian people for the WWII and the death of 65 million people because of that military lunatics of theirs.
Or the AustroHungarians-Germans-Turks for the death of 11 million people in WWI.
How about that?
Is that fair to you?

Apples and Oranges.
And no matter how many or how few deaths there were in WWII, and who ever killed how many: Nazi ideology remained to be what it was and is: murderous, racist, evil.
Sudan was a centre of historic slave trade, later conflicts were due to various ethnicities demanding more rights in the central government and more help by the giovernment to develope in the local regions. The potential for conflict has systemtically been raised by people running a way of agriculture and lifestock farming - goats especially - that erode the fertile soil more and more and makes land that could be used for farming more and more rare. In the last outbreak of this old conflict,the central government unleashed the Janjaweed, a Muslim terror militia that commits horrible atrocities against Christian and other non-Muslim tribes of black skinned ethnicity. As of 2016 they have massacred close to half a million people in recent years, tortured, raped and mutilated scores more. The events are known as the darfur gencoide and are rated as genocide according to the international anti-genocide convention indeed. The frontline runs very well along racial as well as religious borders. Diamonds have relatively little to do with it. Not every African crisis is just about blood diamonds. The line of mutual antipathy and hate runs alongside ethnic groups that belong to different religious sides, and races. So yes, religion and Islam have something to do with this for sure. Also the traditional conflictline between African black ethnicities and Arabs. Arabs hunted black people in this region of the world and sold them into slavery since centuries.
And no, I neither like Döner nor Gyros, but Tzaziki. I happen to make one that people usually seize from my hands the moment I finished preparing it.
Together with self-baked fresh ciabatta-style bread made with Italian tipo-00 wheat (pizza dough is made from this, usually)..
