I do believe that this PhD clears it up rather nicely, don't you think?

I thought the Crusades was more political than religious.

Good find BSS.
Bill Warner makes the case the Crusades were defensive battles.
The jihad has always been offensive, power seeking, and in search of a khalifate.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

I thought the Crusades was more political than religious.

To the extent that Pope Urban II, who called for the first Crusade in 1095, was a political figure of his day, that point could be argued. But I think there's no doubt that the Crusades (there were a bunch of 'em) were a direct response to the aggression of the muzzies as they sought to spread their filth throughout the world. Therefore, the entire stigma is religious in scope -- muzzies seeking to legitimize their pedophile "prophet" while attacking peaceful people and enslaving, murdering, raping those they didn't outright kill.

Militant islam is as political as it is religious.
