I'm really sick of pic related because its factually wrong and makes people with anti-Muslim sentiment appear stupid and ignorant about history. Who ever made it should be crucified.

Anyway, how come the crusades are almost always associated with the Middle-east?

Because the middle eastern crusades are a clash of two mighty civilisations that has lasting consequences to this say. While the northern crusades is just another case of Europeans fighting and being cruel to each other.

As much of a deusvultfag I am, there should be a pic for Christian crusades in Europe as well as the Islamic conquests in the middle east.

>>
>>492420
That pic is accurate in measuring the comparative levels of Muslim-on-Christian wars and vice versa.

But it doesn't show Christian-on-pagan violence, which would add quite a few battles up north and east into Europe. There weren't nearly as many Christian conquests as Muslim, but the church is hardly blameless.

How are the Northern Crusades relevant to the topic of Jihad vs Crusade, which is what that image was created to show?

Your point is valid but you have to keep in mind that the northern crusades legitimacy is questionable. The Northern Crusades de facto started before being sanctioned by the pope and it quickly turned into expanding kingdoms, and not Christianity.

>>
>>492930

Think whatever you want, but being sanctioned by the pope is relevant to the idea of an crusade.

Neighboring kingdoms (Poland, HRE, Sweden etc) used christianity largely to expand their kingdoms. The situation in the holy land was largely different however, the participants often lost large sums of money due to the expenses of war (especially when that war is fought hundreds of kilometers away) and in the end had to give up their lands in Europe.

The Northern crusaders did not create christian states, but instead added to their own kingdoms.

no, the byzzies wanted help, what was organised didn't have the defense of byzantium in mind and any benefit in terms of the weakening of muslim encroachment unto them was merely a byproduct


and it wasn't just venetians, even in the first crusade, the peasants started causing shit all the way up at Belgrade and all through the balkans, eventually trying to pillage Constantinople

It is good to understand that there were many Crusades and not all were against Muslims. There were quite a few Crusades agianst Christians as in the FourthCrusade when Western Christians attacked and slaughtered Eastern Christians when they sacked Constantanople. There was also the Albigensian Crusade where tens of thousands of Christians were killed to get rid of a few "heretics' known as Cathars

>>
>>492420
OP, your pic can be easily explained. The western european races are parasites and Islam is the antibody.

The byzantine and persian empires that has been fucking with the mid-eastern peoples for centuries were finally shown the door. Islam came to liberate the mid-east from the parasite.

those who try to portray these wars as muslims taking christian lands, only betray their slave nature. Lands do not belong to religions they belong to people who live on them. And the semite speaking people living under the tyranny of the byzantines welcomed their semite cousins regardless of religion. the byzantines were in the process of DESTROYING mid-eastern christianity and the muslims saved them.

It is a shame that islam did not rise before the council of nicea. muslims could have saved so many different kinds of christianity from destruction at the hands of europeans.

The People's Crusade you must be talking about was not part of the official expedition organized by the catholic church. It was an unorganized mess that nobody really wanted.

>Belgrade
Belgrade's commander was confused and refused them entry, but the people had to buy food and shit to survive. I won't say them plundering the area was justified, but don't claim they started shit for no reason.

>balkans
For some mystical reason the People's Crusade was able to traverse hungary without any incident. Oh wait, it was because the hungarian king offered them to go through his country, on the condition that they behave. And they did.
The difference for bulgaria for instance was, that they got attacked. Peter the Hermit tried his best to conciliate, but the bulgarians and the people were asses to each other.

>Then there's the whole jewish killing thing
The German Crusade was in no shape or form part of the real crusade, just some assholes that decided to kill some jews. The other guys doing this were some latecomers of Peter the Hermit, but neither he nor the pope had anything to do with it. Some bishops, like the one of Speyer, protected them.

Now call me an apologetic for getting some things right.

It's less about expecting the community to hold our values, and more about expecting them not to shit up our humanities board with memes and blatantly false idiocy. Blatantly false idiocy here meaning: genocide denial, war crimes denial, claiming that the American civil war was fought over anything other than slavery, etcetera. Disputing historical fact isn't dissent, it's just willful ignorance. That's not to say there aren't legitimate arguments to be had about the topics I listed. The functionalism vs. intentionalism is an example of a perfectly reasonable debate about how exactly the holocaust happened. But shouting 'lol holohoax u need to be redpilled u jew' or 'what gas chambers hitler dindu nuffin' is just spouting memes so repeatedly and frequently disproven that it makes those of us who actually study history want to tear our hair out in frustration.

It's not inaccurate it's just dishonest as a catalog of the crusades.

That's why I much prefer this image. It is inarguable that Islam's history is primarily imperialistic in nature. Anatolia, North Africa and the Mediterranean Coast of the Middle East would still be Christian lands had Islam never begun it's bloody crusade for world dominance.

>>
>>493123
that picture is bull shit. trying to portray the early days of mideastern people taking back their lands from the parasite as a religious war does not change history. there were plenty of christian tribes that allied with muslim armies and fought alongside them. and plenty of christian cities opened their doors to muslims. anything to get rid of the parasites.

the muslims are a not a race or a different species that came from another planet and began invading the poor poor byzantine and persian peaceful people's lands. the first muslims were descendents of people and related to people who had been oppressed for centuries by the two EMPIRES. spinning this act of defence and liberation into muslims attacking to spread religion is exactly what i expect from a slave race like you.

your race will go on crying about how the ancestors of your masters were robbed to their chance to further rape and pillage the mid east. but it will not change history and it will not change what is coming. the romas will fall once again and this time it will not be the arabs who will be incharge. the arab is by nature a peaceful and merciful creature. the people incharge will show no mercy. only extermination of the parasite race will equalize what has been done in the name of its values and civilization.

the wars of the 7th century had nothing to do with spreading any religion or fighting any religion. islam is the response of the mideasten immune system, after being subjected to the parasite for centuries. islam is the anti body that will always fight the parasite.

Yet these people usually fall into this category.

A wrong map is often unnecessary, and just one of many demonstrations of ignorance.

But yes, your question.

The Crusades are often associated with the Middle East for the simple fact that ALL that have been authorized by the Patriarch of Rome were directed to the Middle East and / or fight the Saracens in general (even the Fourth Crusade, at inception, was intended to attack the Egypt)

The Northern Crusades and the Albigensian Crusade were not official, moreover, being only an informal designation, since it was ramifications of the spirit of the Christendom at the time.

>Byzantine lands weren't Christian for many, many generations before the rise Islam

and your point is. the lands did not belong to byantine. they belong to the people who live on them. the byzantine were oppressin the people in these lands and were trying to expand their influence to other lands so they can oppress some more.

this is the problem with talking to slave races. your entire way of looking at history and people is fucked up.
>Arabic expansionism in the Mediterranean was justified because the Roman empire existed 500 years before the Birth of Mohammed

what does when was Mohammad's birth has to do with the fact that the byzantines had been oppressin the arabs and their cousins for centrueis and were always trying to oppress more?

should the people who converted to islam forget what had been happening to their people for centuries. should they forget what was happening to thier cousins and brother tribes ruled by romans. I already made it clear that the muslims were not some alien speicies that came from mars and began conquest of poor persians and byzantines. the fact that you would still throw mohammad's birth date at me shows how much warped the parasite's mind really is.

i will not join ISIS because it is a western created entity that is designed to satisfy western fantasies and nothing more. But i assure you when the day comes i will be the first in line to extermiate your race right after raping you women and children.

BTW, i am not a muslim. I left islam because i realized that there are different speices of humanoid creaters in this world. and some of those species are parasites. Islam insists that all humanoids are equal if they are muslim. that there is no difference. my life has taught me otherwise. your race taught me to leave islam by proving that your blood is not like the rest.

You're delusional, m8.

Roman and Byzantine incursions into Arabic lands were extremely limited. Arabs expanded into Byzantine lands through imperialism. Claims to the opposite are historically inaccurate.

Also, your undertones of Arabic supremacy clash quite pointedly with your appeals to Arabic victim-hood. Are you a downtrodden, enslaved people or righteous rulers of men? It can't be both.
>>
>>493244
BOTH the persians and the byzantines were trying their best to control Arabia. they simply did not send their own armies because of the giant fucking desert. both empires used proxies to control the tribes and trade in the arabian peninsula. and you are speaking as if the tribes of arabia had nothing to do with the tribes living in syria iraq and palestine. they were related in culture and in blood. you know nothing about pre-islamic history. the romand even sent an ethiopian army to arabian peninula the same year that mohammad was born. and the persians were busy fucking around in yemen.

>the new muslim overlords were no different from other tyrants or parasites

I don't think you understand just how expansive an umbrella term "Semite" is. Arabs all being Semites does not make all Semites Arabs. Are all Jews Muslims simply because they're all Abrahamic?

tbqh >>493339 makes me think you're just a butthurt mid-easterner who has an axe to grind with all white Christians for envy of their success.

the blacks are not my brothers. what does that have to do with my point.

over period of many centuries there are always people who have a disagreement with the ruling class. the muslim rulers mostly let the people do what they wanted and live as independent tribes. the caliphate is not a state. it does not seek to control the live of people like the byzantines did. it is the westerners that try to draw lines on maps and pretend that people are defined by land. most of the people living in the mideast were unaffected by the daily happenings of the caliphate. most people continuned to live by their own tribal customs. it is impossible to talk to slaves who think in terms of nations and boundries defining peoplehood. as if people are sheep. that is what the civilized man is. he is sheep. civilization is a glorified word for slavery.

Most of the Crusades happened in the middle East. The ones that happened in France and Lithuania were less publicized and not as many people got involved in them.

1) People in general are violent, regardless of faith.

>But Jerusalem was held by the Seljuks at the time of the first crusade.

No, it was not. The Fatimids retook it from the Seljuks about a year before the Crusaders arrived. The defender of the city against the Crusaders was Iftikhar al-Dawla, the Fatimid governor of Palestine. The Fatimids were nominally allies of the Byzantines and initially assumed that the Crusaders were Byzantine mercenaries and thus weren't going to be hostile to them. It was only as the Crusader army continued to march south after Antioch and brushed off Fatimid emissaries that they realized that these people were actually their enemy. Al-Afdal mustered an army to meet them, but he arrived too late to save Jerusalem, and then the Crusaders defeated him at Ascalon shortly thereafter.

>>
>>494244
>So Jerusalem was held by the Seljuks at the time when the first crusade started.

Yes. When they set out, it was in Seljuk hands, but by the time they got there, it had been in Fatimid hands for about a year. They were perfectly aware of this, because the Fatimids had sent them ambassadors for months saying "hey great job against the Turks our dear friends, by the way we already liberated Jerusalem so no need to do that right?"

The Crusaders had honestly very little awareness of the geopolitical situation of the ME and tended to describe things in biblical, absolute terms, sometimes to the point of absurdity; one of the chroniclers on the crusade IIRC refers to the Fatimid Caliph of Egypt, inexplicably, as the "King of Persia." There's no evidence to suggest that anyone in the crusade knew a single thing about Shias and Sunnis. The great Fatimid mistake was to assume that the crusaders were essentially part of "normal" politics - the Byzantines used mercenaries all the time, after all - when in fact they were an army with no loyalty to the Byzantines dead set on taking Jerusalem, fulfilling their vows, and having their sins wiped away by God no matter which group of infidels happened to control the city.

This is why the various arguments about whether the Crusades were "defensive" or not completely miss the point. The language of "defensive" and "offensive" conflicts assumes a sort of geopolitical game totally alien to what actually seems to have motivated the crusaders.

Because they were a unified political and military force for pretty much the first time ever. There was also a vacuum in the Levant and Egypt thanks to the Byzantines and Persians exhausting each other. The period of conquest also post-dated Muhammad's death.
>>

because the parasite race had to be checked after centuries of interference with the people of the middle east. and the arabs were invited into spain by people who hated the parasite as well. the armies that invaded spain were made up of arain christians and jews and other religions as well. the majority of that army was not even muslim.

if islam was about force converting people then why did the muslims no invade deep into the heart of africa. africa was populated by complete primitives who had no metal weapons and no horses. they did not even wear clothes. why did the arabs no invade them. they were easy prey. they muslims ruled in north africa for almost a thousand years before the christians showed up in black africa. in those thousand years the muslims could have easily used their vastly superior armies to subjugate all of africa and converted them to islam. why did they not do that ? how hard was it for the european parasites to convert the blacks to christianity?
>>
>>503205
>why did the muslims no invade deep into the heart of africa

there are costs to every expedition: manpower, logistics, permanence or presence. Weakness of the adversary is not what wins wars. It's the same reason the romans nor the Ottomans moved further south; they preferred to inherit already established conquered lands.

I would go on and express my disregard to you as well as your comrades on the other side of the spectrum, but I respect that this is not /pol/

>>
>>503223
the same logistics and manpower problems were no hinderance to the european. even thought the euros were even farther away from the heart of africa than the muslim north africans.

if islam was truly about winning converts they would have mounted an effort to invade africa regardless of costs to themselves at some point in the last 1400 year history. it is not as if the early wars of islam against romans and persians were something that arabs thought would be easy. who would have thought that desert nomands from arabia could simultanously take on two super power empires of their times and succeed.

except it wasn't the same problems; you are referring to the era of european colonisation which commenced about 500 years later, with better weapons and better navigating.


>they would have mounted an effort to invade africa regardless of costs to themselves at some point in the last 1400 year history

there are many reasons why they didn't, primarily because the arabian empire ceised to exist. But even if we referred to a muslim conquest, the main vehicle would be the ottoman empire. Which would cause them to overexpand to lands from which, at the time, only the slave trade would be beneficial. Additionally, they chose to expand towards the balkans and further north with dubious results.

So the reason they didn't colonise sub-saharan Africa was not because they didn't want to subjugate infidels. You are explaining history through metaphysical spectra (i.e. religion), when in fact empires are built and destroyed on far more earthly reasons.
>>
>>503280
the muslims were in north africa, it was much easier for them to make their way to south over land than it was for euros to take ships to foreign lands with strange environments. i simply do not buy your premise that the muslims did not do it because the cost benefit ratio was too high. it makes no sense. the weapons of the muslims were plenty superior to the black african weapons. also in the beginning of european colonialism 400 years ago, there was not much difference in weapon technology between euros and muslims.

the muslims trying to take over africa would have been similar to christian rome taking over europe. there was nothing to gain and it was a hard fought victory for them. but it did not stop the romans from converting europe. if the muslims wanted converts they would have done the same thing. infact it would be easier for muslims to take black africa than it was for romans to take north europe.

>You are explaining history through metaphysical spectra (i.e. religion), when in fact empires are built and destroyed on far more earthly reasons.

it is the europeans who want to explain the early wars of islam as guided by religious zeal to take more land for the sake of Allah. the absurdity of this becomes even more apparent when one realizes that the armies of early islam had plenty of non-muslim tribes among them.

it is the european interpretation of history to look at everything as a war fought simply because of different religion. a simple look at what has gone one in the middle east in the last 100 years can prove it.

the last time the shia and sunni fought over different in ideology was more than a thousand years ago. but look at the western news how it is filled with looking at religious interpretation of events. when the american genreal took iraq in 2003 the first thing they did was go on camera and caution people about the coming civil war between sunni and shia. what would make him say that. the last time sunni and shia fought in iraq was more than a thousand years ago. it is the west that has brought its enlightenment and civilization, which is the cause of the current predicament of this world, not just the mid east.

the nation state is a disease that killed millions in europe and then this disease was planted in the whole fucking world. the period between 1850 and 1950 saw wars in germany and eastern europe alone that killed 100 million europeans for fucking NOTHING. and this is the disease that the west has brought to the muslims and wants the muslims to follow in place of islam. this is the new religion of the west that it is shoving down the throats of the world.

I'd like to know the literature you read that supports your opinions. In all seriousness.
>>
>>503545
i am simply a student of history. I have formed my own opinions about things based on my understanding of truth.

europeans most definitely are a slave race. and there are many slave races in the middle east as well. but the current slavery of mideastern peoples is a result of two things.
1) the treacherous lying nature of the europeans.
2) the gracious nature of the noble races of mideast that fooled themselves into thinking that europeans were humans, just like themselves. the europeans used the goodness of the noble races as a weapon against them.

but the problem for europeans is that this will not last much longer. when the nation states were created around 70 years ago, the majority of people living in the borders of respective states were not at all effected by them. as the decades went by the people incharge of these states expanded their power outward by lying further. a nation state is an entity founded on lies that is maintained by lies and spread further by lies. it is no surprise that a race such as the euroepans would invent such an idea. the nation state is the highest form of feudalism. it is utter slavery in its most disgusting form.

as the mid eastern nation states spread out words over the decades by playing on the good nature and noble feelings of the majority rural populations the people came under their control. this process of spreading outwards from the cities to the rest of the area, defined on a map by the nation state, is infact still going on. this process happened faster in oil rich areas where the enormous wealth enabled the states to spread quickly and provide some benefits to the rural populations as well. but now the time has come and with every passing day more and more of the noble races are waking up to what has been done to them. this process of waking up will still take a couple of decades, but once it begins it will quickly spread.

the nation state disease is the ultimate destroyer of truth. it destroys people language, culture, true histories and replaces it all with a single centralized language, culture and false history. without doing this a nation state cannot be formed. this is what WWI and WWII were about. this is why hitler invented all those myths about Aryans and shit. he was trying to forge a german nation. and to define this nation he had to denigrate the slavs.

before the great enlightenment and civilization of the nation state came to Hungary, the hungarian capital was filled with many different cultures and languages and religions. After the great enlightenment and civilization everything was hungarian and one religion. the same thing happened in russia and other eastern european countries in the last few hundred years. today the new religion of capitalism forced upon all the people living within the nation state.

the poles and so called germanic people had been living side by side keeping to their traditions and languages. but no they had to fight two world wars and move entire millions of people from their ancestral lands just because some faggot in a capital decided that he had created an entity that represents all germans or all poles. all the great diversitites of history and culture and langauges of eastern europe and germany were destroyed in the last 300 years.

and what has been done to africa is horrendous. but the black of africa being a slave race have no motivation to keep to their traditions and fight on. and that is why they starve and die and are filled with so much disease. the nation state turns humans into sheep that are at the will and pleasure of their feudal masters.

and for what purpose was the nation state created. it was created to protect the central bank. before there was the nation state there was the bank. all the institutions of the nation state police, courts, prisons, welfare, army etc are created around the bank to strenghten its walls for defense.

have you ever wondered why the europeans went around the world creating the same instituions that exist in your land, when they were trying to control the people in these lands. could it be that these institutions are really slavery and that you are not free but slaves. and that is why your masters set about the world creating the same institutions they use to lord over you. the instituitons that you are so proud of the democracy the courts the laws, if they were for freedom then why would your masters go around the world creating this same model everywhere.

remember before the nation state was created, people had to be enslaved to currency that was controlled by europeans. and then banks were established in these nations.

it is all a western conspiracy. for two years the west tried to get the civil war going in iraq after the invasion. it did no work. then someone blew up an important shia mosque and it started. before that it was just agents of the west blowing up iraqis and pretending it was sunnis doing it. the sunni and shia of iraq did not fight each other when the ottomon empire died and they did not fight when the british left.

there are tribes in iraq that have bot sunni and shia members. these tribes intermarried with each other regardless of sunni or shia. they even had rules about what religion the children would be. the first born child get s the religion of the father and the next one get the religion of the mother. in the tribal society people do not choose who they marry. it is chosen by the family and the family takes into account the greater cultural opinion of the greater family. the fact that these people were marrying each other only proves that iraqis had no problems between sunni or shia. infact which tribe a certain tribe chooses to marry is established by centuries of tradition. the sunni and shia marriage in iraq was centuries old tradition. and suddenly when the war starts we are suppose to believe that these people began fighting and killing each other. they are the same people, related to each other.

much of the middle east is composed of groups that only marry among each other, otherwise known as endogamous groups. in the middle east the distinction between who is mine and who is outsider was never determined by land or religion but by whoever was or was not in the endogamous group.

there is no book that says the things i say. but I am sure there may be some book out there that speaks out against the nation state. there is a book called "DEbt the first 5000 years" by David Graber. it goes into some detail about euroepans trying to con africans and south american tribes into accepting their currency as the only currency.

the language of slavery is debt. and today all currency that is issued is debt. the europeans are proud of their claim that they have ended slavery. but in reality they made slavery global. slavery has never been more rampant and wide spread as it is now. slavery has become universal. mankind was never so miserable as it is now. these are truly the dark ages of human existence.

that is another delusion of the west. you are implying that non-muslims were forced to pay a tax and the muslims did not have to. if fthat is the case then what government on earth wants to see a decrease in tax revenue. why would the ruling muslim families and clans be wishing to see more converts under such circumstances? if everyone converted there would be no one left to pay taxes to them.

The jizya is specifically for dhimmis. This isn't debatable.

It was also often carried out with ritual humiliation-grasping men by the bear and stroking their cheeks was common.

The poll taxes placed on muslims were nowhere near as humiliating.

>It was also often carried out with ritual humiliation-grasping men by the bear and stroking their cheeks was common.

and that is suppose to make people want to convert to islam?

the taxes were mostly paid by people living in the cities. the majority of people living in rural areas. as for jizya dhimmis and all that it was entirely dependant on how the people treated the first muslims armies when they invaded. there were many christians that opened the gates for the muslims and threw out their roman oppressors. for them there were no taxes. then there were instances where people put up a fight initially but then surrendered. for them the taxes were different. and then there were people who kept on fighting till the end and were finally subdued by force. for these people the taxes were the highest. there were even non-muslim tribes in the armies and they paid no taxes either.

what is a dhimmi ? a dhimmi is someone for whom muslims are responsible to protect. nothing more.

this whole schtick about jizya and dhimmis being a conspiracy to convert non-muslims is a westerners wet dream. in the beginning the western scum simply believed that muslims had forced people to convert. but about 80 years ago when some westerns decided to provide proof of their claims from history they could not find it. then they invented the claim that the muslims infact did not want to convert people at all. because they wanted to collect non-muslims taxes from them. and that is why there were no forced conversions. but there were some deluded westerners who could not accept this view of history. they could not believe that so many could have converted to islam with out any force when the deeds of christianity are well known. so decided to dream up a scenario where muslims were really taxing people so they would convert. as if such a thing has ever happened. where people leave their traditions behind because the tyrant is taxing them. tyranny makes people cling to their traditions

even 40 years ago Bernard Lewis was still trying to explain to the west that muslims did not force people to convert. In one of his books he says that it took him decades of research to come to this conclusion. in other words the retard could not let go of his forced conversion meme for decades. even today there are people in the west regurgitating this horse shit.
>>
>>504104
the issues of woman equality are western issues and have nothing to do with us. we did not have laws and did not have rights or prohibitions. everything is determined by the culture of the people. the laws of nature are the only true laws and they have made men and women different from one another. when people are not ruled by a state, they live by a set of principles that you in the west would call culture. the opinions about women maybe very different for even two villages a few miles apart or even for different clans living in the same village.

i do not support ISIS. it is another state. it is a thoroughly western phenomenon. the original caliphates were never states. much less nation states. isis is trying to create a nation state where there is only one national identity and that is islam. isis is an instrument of the west.

the palestinians have every right to fight. it is upto them if they want to give their land to the european. but as long as they fight i will support them.

what is that pic even trying to say. that is totally retarded. the percentages do not even make any kind of sense.

what converted the majority of chritians to islam were the crusades. when the crusaders arrived in the levant they found most people still christians after so many centuries of muslim rule.

the same thing happened when the europeans came 100 years ago. they found over 20 % christians in the levant. and now the christians in that area is barely 5%. both times it is the interjection of christian west that was the greatest cause of the decline of christian populations from the mid east. but this time something more has happened. the european jew also arrived and with his arrival the jewish populations that lived among the muslims for centuries have also mostly disappeared.

both times it is the coming of the european that portends the end of his coreligionists. the city of nazareth was over 80% christian when the british were ruling there. now there is barely a christian to be found. it is not islam that is responsible for this and similar occurrences.

To be fair, if you look at the rhetoric conquistadores and other explorers and early colonialists used, it's all "god this" and "god that" but we dismiss it as rhetoric and say "oh well it was really about resources"

>Big shock.

that area was the capital of islamic power for centuries. if the muslims wanted to kill or expel non muslims they would have done it long time ago. the fact the there were still millions of christians in that area when american invaded is proof that muslims expelling non muslims from any area is shocking.
>>
>>504350
Colonisation was to acquire the wealth of the new world. Islamic invasion was always aimed at apostate cities as the goal wasn't bringing gold back to the motherland it was the extension of the caliphate.
For Islamists god was the primary motive, for conquistadores god was the secondary motive.
>>
>>504265
>many western nation states were also defined by religion and not just language.

Religion was never a sufficient definition of a nation in any western nation-state. There have been nation-states which were Catholic, but has never been a "Catholic nation-state" in which the national identity was only Catholicism without any ethnic qualities.

1st off, you do know what the word 'ostensibly' means, don't you?

2nd off, almost all wars are fought for ostensible reasons. the spaniards spread christianity, but gold was their proper goal. The arabs fought in the name of god but expansion was their real goal. they didn't even force islam on their conquered like the christians did.

That map is also missing Charlemagne's battles against the Saxons, the Danish campaigns against the pagans in the Baltics or the catholic crusades against dissenting christians in france.

when the muslims are allwoed to practice their culture in their own lands. it is funny how the europeans claim that muslims want to impose their culture on the west when that is exactly what the west has done to the muslims. the nation state with its institutions of police courts jails and banks etc is a western invention. yet every muslim land is modelled after it. the europeans claim that muslims want to force them to islam when it is the europeans tha thave been forcing people to their religion for over a centuary. when the west left christianity they adopted a new religion and now the world must change to this new religion. the religion of progressivism founded on the myth of human progress.

the europeans always accuse their intended victims of doing what they themselves are doing. and they accuse their victims of wanting to do what they want to do to their victim. that is why i take the european claims about muslims wanting to kill all non muslims very seriously. it implies that the euroepans want to kill all muslims. i know you souls better than you know your selves.
>>

>That map is also missing Charlemagne's battles against the Saxons, the Danish campaigns against the pagans in the Baltics or the catholic crusades against dissenting christians in france.
Because the point of the video that map comes from is whether the crusades against muslims were offensive or defensive in nature. Religious wars against Pagans or catholics vs christians is irrelevant to the point he was making.
>>
>>504478

Then why isn't the Reconquista depicted?
Also, many of the Muslim battles depicted are from an era when Christianity and Islam were just two sects of the same abrahamic religion.
>>
>>504478

Invasions are by definition offensive and the Crusades were invasions by every dictionary definition.

This is not A Bad Thing.

The Crusades don't have to be "defensive" to be "justified" and that's what pisses me off about these endless threads.

Islamic polities want to expand into the Levant? Good for them.

Franks and Germans want to migrate en masse to the Levant to have a crack at them? Good for them.

Whats wrong about it? The muslims DID make offensive battles into europe. The resulting counter offensives were not "crusades" by any definition, and they were not endorsed by the church.

Now you're right that there were two "crusades" against pagan europeans in Spain and modern day Berlin...

At the time the contemporaries called them failures but they resulted in converting the major population centers and turning these areas Christian, namely Spain and Germany.

We all know that Christianity is preferable to Islam, so why are you attacking Christianity?

Asia had these as well.

And courts existed under muslim rule long before the crusades.

Only banks and jails are unique to western influence. Banks aren't even special, they're just a better system than individual moneylenders that preceded them, for all involved.

the youtube video you posted is totally retarded. i have only watched five minutes and already the man is creating straw man arguments to respond. he claims to have studied islam for 30 years but he does not know that hadith and sunnah are not central to islam. the hadith and sunnah are disputed and were never meant to be anything more than historical record. the muslims themselves were always aware that these things were not accurate. the man has created his own delusions to respond to.

as for your claims that muslims arabs were fighting offensive wars. i have already made it clear in the earlier part of this thread that the arabs of the mid east were finally defending themselves against your parasite kind.

>>504597

>defneding
Except roman and persian interactions with the arabs wee extremely limited and almost never occured.

when they did, it was usually arabs raiding their more civilized neighbors, reprisals for such, or mutually beneficial trade.
