So treaties forced upon a country being exterminated are righteous? Interesting viewpoint.

Even under logic as stupid as that, America still managed to violate these treaties.

Your assertion is merely that might makes right. Kind of what America fought against at its inception.

“So treaties forced upon a country being exterminated are righteous?”

No, and I never said that, but a treaty is a treaty.

“Interesting viewpoint.”

Interesting or not it is correct.

“Even under logic as stupid as that, America still managed to violate these treaties.”

At times it did, but all of that became essentially null and void with the tacit agreement of all the parties involved. That wasn’t the situation in 1095.

“Your assertion is merely that might makes right.”

Again, no. It is just the opposite. Muslims were the “might”. They were not right.

“Kind of what America fought against at its inception.”

And there you go contradicting yourself. What is worse is that you accuse me of what you yourself are now saying is right. I have been logically consistent throughout and will continue to be. You apparently have have no logical center.
