You mean the “Crusades” that were in response, ie, a DEFENSIVE ACTION against invading muslims?

Why would the Crusades be considered an inappropriate response to militant Islam?

I don’t get why so many people act like the Crusades were an unjust action against innocent, harmless Middle Easterners who were just minding their own business.

The muslims were on the verge of conquering Europe. Considering what we know about muslim behavior, strong action was imperative.

If the Crusades didn’t happen, likely I’d be wearing a burka now.

No thanks.
