    Any ideas why they converted? I wasn’t aware of this, and I don’t see that it matters…I’m just curious.

      A lot of it was forced conversion. There’s a long history of religious and cultural oppression of various peoples in the region. You could probably find some online documentaries about it, though more than a few likely view the events through a pro-Zionist lens.
