Listening to this is torture ... what is that "music" crap in the background?? Are you in a Hyper-Calvanist heavy metal band ?!?
Nevertheless, aside from the abu grab torture music, it's very good information and insight on the Roman Catholic angle going on.

so....are roman catholic mercenaries bad? or good? not sure what the point of this is.

@Exoteric01 Amen.

You contradict yourself when you say that although formed before the crusades they defended lands conquered by the crusaders. That doesn't make sense. Crusades were a response to Muslim invasion of Christian lands. In fact they defended lands populated by Christians who were native to the area and grew out of the Roman and Greek empires. The Knights of Malta still exist today and are involved in non-military aid work. Their original purpose.

When you state that the knights of Malta were formed BEFORE the crusades you are correct but they were called the Knights Hospitaliers and were mainly concerned with accommodation and health of pilgrims. This is where we get the terms hospitality and hospital from. They eventually were forced to become a military order due to Muslim attacks on pilgrims. They later were forced to move to Malta where they fought Muslim pirates.

you may call it good information, but all i saw was biased bullshit... If one catholic does something wrong it doesnt mean his doing it in the name of catholicism. In any case, Blackwater is not a mercenary army, its a Security Providing Organization, which is totally different, they did fuck up but thats a different story.
Thanks.
