Christianity, the last refuge of the scoundrel/sex offender* delete as appropriate

I think there are people from the same religion who would have a different view on that.

Why?

There was no doubt Muslims were invading Europe and robbing pilgrims in the holy land around 1000 AD. The crusaders were saving innocent pilgrims on land that was Jewish. Its all written down if you doubt the facts. Do present different facts.

The reality is that parts of Islam hate the west and wish it to disappear, they are willing to die to make that happen. Being nice to them is not going to work!

Can you name any oldish Palestinian artefacts found in Jewish or even Palestinian lands? Discarded bombs don't count!

They disagree with these bits:

You mean the righteous crusaders who were policing the holy land (which had been invaded by Islam which was founded Centuries after Christs' death?) backed by God's official representative on Earth?

I.e. they weren't righteous and the pope isn't God's official representative on Earth.
