You wrote that the Crusades -- Christian "holy wars" that resulted in the deaths of thousands of people, Jews among them -- were "provoked" by "muslim SOP aggression".
Will you say that Muslims were not responsible for the anti-Semitic murders committed by Crusaders? Because your post #199 implies otherwise. That's what I was responding to.
"You wrote that the Crusades -- Christian "holy wars" that resulted in the deaths of thousands of people, Jews among them -- were "provoked" by "muslim SOP aggression.
The crusades were provoked by SOP muslim agression. No SOP muslim aggression (which, after a few centuries was beginning to absorb much of the Christian world)no crusades. Attempting to attach the overzealousness practiced by some perhaps pious and some not so pious crusaders to the CAUSE of the Crusades themselves is is the sort of applied ignorance that will leave you destined to repeat the history that you have failed to learn from.
Islam reflects its earthly origins. It cannot exalt, it cannot rise. It's prophet has blood and crime on his hands. How can his followers be BETTER than he? Answer: They can't. And their similarity to their prophet provoked a Pope to get off of his ass and push back. There are plenty of Crusaders in hell but Jesus Christ's, as a life, is exalting.
