But deceitfully, you moslems never reveal, that the 'Crusades' were the 'child' of moslem banditry, murder, and oppression, and the 'child' of the moslem enslavement of peaceful Christian pilgrims, travelling to Jerusalem [i.e. Zion].
The Crusades began with the lies of the Christian Pope Urban II.A speech given by Urban II in 1095 reveals his lies:
"[Muslims have] invaded the lands of Christians and has depopulated them by the sword , pillage and fire...[Muslims] destroyed the churches...They circumcise the Christians...When they wish to torture people by a base death, they perforate their navels, and dragging forth the extremity of the intestines, bind it to a stake; then with a flogging they lead the victim around until the viscera having gushed forth the victim falls prostrate..."
This incitement to hatred was based on lies.
The reality was that Christian lived peacefully under Muslim rule.In fact, it was under the Crusaders that Christians in the Middle East faced danger.
The first towns to face massacre at the hands of Crusaders were Christian towns.
When the Crusaders eventually arrived in Jerusalem, they slaughtered everbody man, woman and child in the city - a large percentage of whom were Christians.
Yes Crusaders slaughtered thousands of Christians. Their crime? They had been living under Muslim rule!
In Jerusalem, the Crusaders slaughtered 70, 000 civilians! Muslims, Christians and Jews all massacred even the suckling babes.
