I can’t believe all the so called conservatives who have been conned into the “Crusades were barbaric” nonsense.

The Crusades were for a great cause. They were trying to rescue areas converted to Islam by the sword.

Did some Crusaders act unchristian like? I am sure they did as would any army in that era.

I can remember when “Crusaders” was a huge compliment and it still should be.

” The Crusades were for a great cause. They were trying to rescue areas converted to Islam by the sword.”

If anything they were defensive actions trying to keep the muslims from gobbling up even more of the Christian lands.

You and me both- I hear NOONE on Fox news standing up for Christians by telling folks the TRUTH about the crusades- When we don’t even have fox news standing up for us, then the war is lost because the ignorant masses who voted dear leader in twice will NEVER get to hear the actual truth and will believe their leader only
