    The muzzies and the Catholics.

    Just blame those two for everything and you can't go wrong.

      or even more - who would have been the baddies in 1 BC or 570AD?
      How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

        What did "the muzzies" do wrong to warrant large scale expeditionary force sent far beyond this country's borders?

          Barbarian hordes of Celts resisting positive influence of the Greater Roman Empire?

          If you want to go further down the ages then I'd say Kronos was the original baddie

            Dunno ... why did the Berbers set sail for Spain?

              Typical. Blaming the peace loving Klingons.
              How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                On reflection, I can't really blame you for being scared of flying. The last flight I had the turbulence was so bad, I was sweating like Gary Glitter at a nursery.

                  They had Oil under their feet. It was a little known fact back then, so regime change was given as the driving force.

                    Have they found a lot of oil under Jerusalim now?

                      I believe the "Crusades" was about a little bit more than just Jerusalem.
