Lebanese and Syriac Christians say that because in the world of the Middle East, being ruled by Turks trumps being ruled by Arabs. The descendants of Greeks, South Slavs, Romanians and Armenians say otherwise.

Yes, Christians were often enslaved by Turks. Guess what? Christians enslaved Muslims to work on their galleys too. Granted, their slavery wasn't as extensive, but Christendom was also far less powerful than the Islamic world, and so did less conquering. (You get slaves when you conquer or raid another religion's people)
