There is no such thing as Britishers. The noun for someone from Britain is a Briton. And when you're referring to the crusades it was pretty much just England back then.
Extremism has killed billions in the history of the world. Regardless of religion or orientation.
Most of the non-Muslim world has nothing against Muslims. It's just the radical Muslims we don't like.
As for the US in Iraq and Afghanistan, that was led by a man who had the most votes against his election of any president in history.
We have a saying in English which is "don't tar us all with the same brush".
The message of the New Testament of the Bible is one of LOVE.
Love thy God and love thy neighbour.
Don't hold entire countries accountable for the failings of their leaders (any war) or some of their compatriots who went astray (9/11, 7/7, etc)
And don't hold a 600 year long grudge. You'll have an aneurysm.

Real Christians don't kill. Being a Christian means being a follower of Christ and Jesus left us a model to live by.
He gave a new commandment and that was to show love for one another just as had showed love for us. He also refused to be involved in earthly politics and told his followers to be neutral in world affairs. Jesus even told Peter on the night he was arrested after Peter tried to defend him That everyone who takes to sword will die by the sword.
So the point is that if people lived by the example Jesus left Christians would not participate in war, in politics, or anything that would be a dis service to mankind.
Rather they would be involved in helping people to live better lives spiritually and physically.
The old saying goes like this "If the shoe fits wear it" but for all Christian religons except for one the shoe does not fit. It's hard to call one a Christian when they refuse to follow his example.
The majority are so involved in nationalism that they miss the point of how to serve God and Christ .

Because they feel Muslims are against them.
They also have a feeling that Islam is Antichrist
But the truth is the Roman Catholicism is the real evil in the planet and they are the driving power of the Kings of all time.
Religion was the main key for capturing countries and they killed people who have not accepted their religions
Not just Christians, Muslims too did it

In every war, innocent people die or get hurt. If people had love in their heart and do good things that God wants us all to do because he has a purpose for all of us on earth, there would be no need for wars.
Look at all the aid that the US sends overseas. They send it to help the less fortunate people who are starving and dying.
Christians do good things more than kill or rape people for the most part.

i think such debates are not really helping.
we should have interreligios and intercultural tolerance and understanding for each other.
i think every religion says peace.it is some uneducated or evil people use religion as excuse to their sins.instead we have to educate young generations and teach them their own culture and religion in a proper way that they respect other people`s beleifs and then maybe the world will become a better place.

The Japanese during WWII weren't Christians that bombed Pearl Harbor, and I'm pretty sure that it was Muslim extremists that rammed their planes into our buildings on 9/11 a few years back. There are people of every race, every creed, and every belief that kill, mame, torture, rape, etc.

Most Americans are not Christian. In fact less than 10% of the US Population are whole heartedly dedicated to the precepts of Christ. As far as violence in the those areas, it is the Muslem radicals that kill hundreds of times more people than any American forces do. Your facts are wrong. You are wrong.

The Roman Catholic Church is not Christian. For 1,260 years Christians fled for their lives from the papacy. Look it up in the History books. It is the harlot of Revelation 17.
MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
6 I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I marveled with great amazement.

When Muslims kill, EVERYDAY!!, they are following Muhammad. Muhammad was a murderer and a sexual pervert. He married a little girl and there are stories of him kissing boys. What a guy, huh? He was an assassin, which is why Muslims still are. He was a terrorist, which is why Muslims still are. Muslims are killing more Muslims in the countries you named (and around the world) than any other group ever has. Maybe that is how islam will finally disappear. Sad isn't it?

You can substitute the word Christians in your question with any other group of people and it would stand. Everyone is guilty of killing. No one group of people are innocent. Just tell us who you are, I bet your people has killed a lot innocent people.
