“Because Crusades” is a colloquialism whose purpose is to convey contempt for excusing the inexcusable. Its use is fairly frequent.

What information does “In the hospital” convey as opposed to “In hospital”?

An understanding of the english language. “In hospital”
is slang and incorrect. Laziness.
