As a holy warrior of god, I assume?
"During the crusade, knights, peasants and serfs from many nations of Western Europe travelled over land and by sea, first to Constantinople and then on towards Jerusalem. The Crusaders arrived at Jerusalem, launched an assault on the city, and captured it in July 1099, massacring many of the city's Muslim, Christian, and Jewish inhabitants."

Not to mention the brutal destruction of numerous Jewish communities in Europe before they even left...
The irony of you being roused by the romance of holy war in a thread about ISIS is incredible.
You are truly morally bankrupt.
