Christians were defending homeland from Muslim aggressors even before Crusades. The Muslims came to France to rape and pillage.

Never heard that. Sounds like a Fable of some sort. Jesus I think spends most of his time with the Father in Heaven, and is waiting for the right time to come back and set things straight.
Not that I don't believe Jesus could do such a thing, indeed he could and if he had the right reasons he could do anything. I don't know if when Jesus ascended he was to stay up there the whole time until the appointed time to come back. Who knows if he might find a good reason to come down and do something, but usually the Angels do that sort of thing. Jesus is a King, not a warrior.

Wrong.
Jesus never desire for war to happen. As he taught in the Sermon on the Mount, remember Matt 6:39? If anyone shall smite u on the right cheek, turn to him on the left.
Moreover, jesus taught us to pray for our enemy, bless them that curse us, do good to those who hate us etc. Peter, James iin their epistle also echo the same teaching. So how can we say it is Jesus that help the Christian to defeat Muslim?
The whole idea of holy war is, that the European Christian are too 'high & mighty', thinking too highly of themselves. Most of all, they do not read the bible enough. There should not be a war in the first place.
If u read what the crusaders did to the women in the Constantiapole and in middle east, u will be shock! Theso call holy warrior of European Christian kill, steal, rape, rob anyone alike, be they Christian or Muslim! Jesus Help them? I don't think so.

Do you really think that Jesus takes sides in worldly affairs such as wars and conflicts? What makes you think that he favors one side over the other.
Do you think that he really approves what any government now is doing? For being a "reverend", you are pretty pathetic. Do all reverends from your religion use Yahoo! Answers to preach their shady religion? How sad your life must be.

Everything that happens is the will of the Creator. We don't always understand why He allows things to happen, but believe me, He in His infinite wisdom knows what is best for all of His creatures. Don't forget, " Every cloud has a silver lining".

I guess it's only fair since he wasn't much help winning the holy land. This bike race seems more like a consolation prize.

HUH? Jesus fights people who worship God? Or are you just trying to say God's will was done! Well it always is! That's the way God works.
