The Crusades. Glad you brought that up.
They were a REACTION to the Moslem conquest of Jerusalem. What business did European potentates and knights-errant have liberating Jerusalem? Not much; but more than the forces of Mohammed had in overrunning and slaughtering it.
And why did he do that? He had a little Joo problem. Having made his god in his own image, he institutionalized his two favorite fetishes - little girls, and slaughtering Jews.
No, I think the area would have been in better hands with the Crusaders, than with a blood-crazed pedophile prophet and his automaton followers...

This is my last post regarding history and religion on the thread that started by someone pointing out the value of copper in a pre '82 penny...
I understand what you say, and again, I am no historian. Still, European history is littered with bloody and brutal fighting that occurred in conquests and land grabs that involved rape and pillage, and none of the combatants were Moslem. In fact, there has been a good deal of bloodshed over the Catholic vs Protestant thing as well. My point is, very few groups are immune from the kind of behavior that you point to as Moslem aggression. Seems to me to be more rightly called human aggression.
