There's nothing a person says that more serves better to convinces me of their ignorance than when they use the "C" word. They use it as if it was a magical talisman that would make us crumble to the ground and eagerly convert to whatever twaddle they're peddling. People who believe the Crusades were somehow "bad" inevitably are completely and unforgivably ignorant of both Christian and Moslem histories, let alone the infamous and barbaric treatment of Christians under invading Moslem armies in Spain, Portugal and France between AD 711-1492.
The Crusades weren't started by Christians or the Church. Instead, they were slow, measured, moral, reasonable and rational responses to violent and unchecked Islamic invasion and colonization. If anything, the Crusades were supremely holy when compared to the egomaniacal, selfish and hate-filled wars started by atheists between the 18th and 21st centuries. The Crusades were started to protect innocent Christians from being killed. Atheists start wars because they hate, are jealous and because they desire power. To be clear, every war started by Moslems has been, indeed a religious-inspired carnage but this doesn't mean that every other war was religious in nature. Islam teaches that war is perfectly in keeping with Allah's capricious and vindictive nature.
By the time the Crusades had started in AD 1099, invading Moslem armies had slaughtered countless thousands of Christians in the Levant, the Middle East, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Portugal, France and Italy. A full 90% of Christian territory had been unjustly invaded and annexed. And under the lash of their "peaceful" Moslems overlords, Christians were enslaved, raped, forced to pay the extortionist tax known as the jizya, forced to convert to their peaceful religion, summarily executed for no other reason than they were Christians in a formerly Christian country unjustly taken over by evil Moslems.

Thank you for this post.
Silly me still getting to know how to use this phone. Well, I did used to just have a flip phone this time last year. Laf.
Before Islam ever was North Africa was wealthy, a carefully cultivated breadbasket with cities and towns.
After the heathen hoards of Islam depopulated North Africa all that remained were ruins and a few herdsmen.
Every “world heritage site” in North Africa, every town that only remains because no one was left to tear down old stuff and put up new, should have Europeans screaming to remove the Muslim from all of Europe.
But instead too many have civilizational amnesia and now act like they’ve some sort of Cultural Suicide Fetish to indulge.
When a Christian is a good disciple of Christ, emulating Him, they are peaceable and loving.
When a Muslim is a good disciple of Mohammad, emulating him, they are a killer.

Somewhat interesting 15 minute video of Albanians fighting against the Ottoman Turks in the 1400’s.

The Pope responded to a call from the Byzantine Emperor Alexios in 1095 for help from the West against the Turks. It wasn’t like the Pope just said hey lets get all of Western Christendom to go to war. The war started when the Muslims invaded Iberia-Spain in the 7th century.
Well actually, early 8th.
Extremely reasonable and definitely necessary after more than 400 years of general invasion of Europe by Muslims.

If you read the other books of Islam (the Hadiths and Sunnahs which chronicle the life and sayings of Mohammad, these are Talibari, Muslim, Isaq and Bukhari; Hadiths are Mohammad’s word to his followers, The Sunnahs are the history of Mohammad) you will learn that Mohammad’s motto was kill kill kill,
The author fails to mention that the Islamic invented chattel slave trade was the Big Business of the time - everybody was in it: Christians and Jews alike ... to their shame.
with 72 (near) virgins for every jihadi
—
The 72 virgins passage is mistranslated Old Syriac; the original was 72 white raisins - a valuable commodity at the time. It continues to this day because the koran cannot be altered: misspellings, mistranslations “coffee stains” all must remain.

Because “Allah” is none other than the devil.
