History - December 2007

The crusaders obviously thought they were doing the right thing when they 'took over' Jerusalem. The muslims, on the other hand, probably had a different view of the crusaders. What's your view of the crusaders? What do you think the muslims view of the crusaders is like? What is your whole oppinion on the Crusades?

[I just wanted to learn more about the crusades, and hear other thoughts from other people about it]

Thanks =]

My question about a possible 9/11 came straight out of Newsmax on line. I don't even want that super consertative rag. It keeps popping up on my E-mail. It seems to exist to spread fear in the interest of the rich elite. But I would like to describe exactly what my question asked. I asked how many Americans want to live in constant fear waiting for the next group of Muslim fanatics to try again? I did not advocate mass murder or genocide of the entire Muslim world. I got accused of that in answer after answer. I would like to state this clearly. Wars are won by doing what has to be done to win them. They are won by concentration of force. A few mass murders who advocated that...Oliver Cromwell, Napoleon, the Duke of Wellington, Lee, Grant, Sherman, Nathan Bedford Forrest, Patton.....
