I think your infomation is a little mis-leading. First off, the first crusade started when the turk invade the Byzantine Empire. Then the Catholic started the first crusade. The purpose of the first crusade was to bring military aid to the Byzantines and desired to control of the Holy Land which was part of the Byzantine Empire.

Also, there is nothing more divisive than religion, for it casts people into the "us and them" divide, "us" always being right, having the truth, being the best, having the "only true way" as opposed to "them" who are always wrong, don't have the truth, are the inferior, and follow "false ways".

@ram3o in all documentaries ive watched what the byzantine empire wanted was a few 100 mercenaries, the Byzantines didnt want or expect 60k christian army, it was a play by the pope.
and the idea that they were fighting to bring the lands back to byzantine empire is a joke.
your comment is old but had to reply..

You state that Osama bin Laden proclaimed Islamic Jihad or holy war against the west. First of all. Who is Osama bin laden? He is not a leader of any state; nation; or even a political party. Osama is a former ally of the CIA/USA.
He has no authority to declare war. He is an outlaw in many Arab countries(only Iran claims to be an Islami-C state) He is a criminal and a terrorist. And many muslims view him this way. Muslims are too busy calling each other kafirs. finally, no war is holy!

Islam fought against Pagan Arab who worship stones, and others who worship the sun and the moon. Islam was on a deffenseve live to protect it's faith and it's people. But if we go few hundred years ago we see that most of the Muslim countries were attacked from the west, millions lots their lives in result to ocupation, which led to the torture and humilation to the entire nation.

MIS _LEADING INFORMATION

Crap. 1st century Israel was like present day Afghanisation except it was occupied by the Roman legions instead of NATO. If you see the Sanhendrin as the equivalent of the pro-US regime and the Zealots as the Taliban you get the picture. Yehosua Ben Joseph and his followers took over the Temple Mount in a spectacular terrorist attack on the moneychangers but were defeated and crucified. The burning of Rome was the equivalent of 9/11. Bush read my pet goat just as Nero played the fiddle.

of course, because most christians dont consider them to be christians.

A female apostate may be put to death, according to some schools, or imprisoned, according to others. The Islamic laws governing apostasy are derived from the traditions (ahadith). According to Wael Hallaq nothing of the apostasy law are derived from the Qur'an, [2] although the jurist Al-Shafi'i interpreted the Quranic verse [Qur'an 2:217] as providing the main evidence for apostasy being a capital crime in Islam.[3]
It may not be religion per se which is evil but certain religions, or what governments make of them. There has never been a war incited to Buddhism or Taoism to my knowledge, for example.

so if the crusades were a war declared by the pope would that make it a roman catholic war rather than a "christian" war?

Yes and know, because at the time of the Crusades, Catholic Christianity was more or less all there was.

You are dead wrong. This is historical background on what really happened. I approve of none of it. Can't you see that these truths are offensive to the Christians who believe the Crusades were a Holy Cause? Take a look at parts 2-5, and you'll understand a lot better.
