THE HOLY CRUSADES;
"Second Crusade"
Jihad vs Crusade Castles

By Monty Python's Terry Jones
(Part 20 of however many God wants)

Christian Characters:
Emperor Alexius, Pope Urban II, Peter the Hermit, Peasants, Knights and other Christians
"Pagan" Characters: Jews & Muslims & Eastern Orthodox Christians; Turkish Zenghi, Noradim, & Saladin

The purpose is to show parallels between Old War "Quagmires" & Modern War "Quagmires", because so often people dont realize there is so much more to "Winning a War" than what happens on any battlefield regardless of how many battles there are. Unless people are willing to entirely slaughter the other people (which is almost impossible because there will always be a few left), the Victory really comes for the "Military in Control" with negotiation agreements.
