Pete Hegseth and His ‘Battle Cry’ for a New Christian Crusade
Lmao, the Crusades were a thinly veiled excuse for looting and pillaging, and every Crusade but the first ended in dismal failure. Only ignoramuses glorify them.
They were also a response to the encroachment of the ottoman empire into europe and the wholesale depopulation of the entire mediterranean coast by ottoman raiders. If you think the crusades were strictly christian aggression then you havent read any history at all.
And they were a remarkable ineffective response, and as the poster below me said the crusaders looted other Christian kingdoms as well. The Crusades do not need to be rehabilitated.
