The Crusades were a several centuries delayed response to Islamic jihad. When Pope Urban II called the First Crusade in 1095, the followers of the prophet had already spread across the Middle East and North Africa by force.
People who think the Crusades preceded Islamic jihad have been brainwashed by politicial correctness.

Crusading is the act of going on a quest to get nude images of a person you and your friends lust over. A truly noble act for your boys (or girls).

A series of wars n shit that happened in ancient medieval times. So you got the Holy Land, Jerusalem. This place is like Mecca to christians and catholics. For some reason the Arabs, Islams, Saracens etc wanted it. So the Arabs marched thier huge army and said "we'll take it". Meanwhile in Europe, all the white boys there got really pissed off about this and got together, got some weapons and marched to Jerusalem getting into all kinds of shennanighans on the way. So the White boys get to Jerusalem and slaughtered the arab army and the Pope was all happy again. Then you get this guy named Saladin who had a huge army and wanted Jerusalem back from the "Blue Eyed Demons" as ahe called the white men from Europe. One of this "Blue Eyed Demons" happened to be Richard the Lionheart from england. He also had an army that was a bit smaller that Saladins but he himself was a tough, streetsmart fucker who could handle himself on the battlefield. The forces meet and a huge battle called Asurf takes place. Richards white boys win the battle against the arabs. Saladin gets realy cut about this and puts a Jihad on their ass. This is serious shit coz u got muslims with jihads and eurotrash with crusades. So the white boys spill heaps of innocent blood and kill and murder and make one hell of a mess then sign a peace treaty with the muslims. Like whiteboys do, they kill n make mess and when things get hectic they think fuck this and leave. They went back to Europe and im pretty sure that they come back a few times to cause a bit more trouble. Meanwhile the Jews who lived here just stood back and hoped that the white boys would protect them coz they aint had an army scince the romans fucked them. Sadly today theres still bitchin about who lives here.
"Man those crusades were fucked up hey"
