I have a beautiful time-line map of civilizations about three by ten feet. After studying it I came up with a soundbite I like ti use. “The crusades were an 86 year interruption to over 1,000 year of barbaric Islamic conquests".

And that's about correct. Over a 300 year time period, it is estimated that 2.5 million European men, women, and children were kidnapped my Muslim invaders and pirates and enslaved. For boys and most women, that meant rape. It is a horror not discussed even today. One Sultan sought 3,000 blond and blue eyed women for his harem, and the dirty Muslims invaded just to take this girls and women to his rape stables.
