What do you think about Saladin, /pol/? Was he really a gud boi or is that just a leftist meme?
>>72418821
Decent warlord shit ruler.
>>72418821
Saladin being a chivalrous adversary is a centuries-old European meme. Whether it was actually true or false, we will never know.
>>72418821
Can I tickle your pickle? ;(
>>72418866
Like so many.
Saladin was smart and all but he was on the wrong side of history.
>>72418821
Him and the lionheart were very very decent and chivalrous leaders
Too bad they fought for dumb shit
>>72418889
Pretty sure it was created in the subsequent cultural backlash against the crusades and more recently revived in the post colonial backlash

Kek didnt Richard the Lion Heart slaughter 8000 captured unarmed soldiers within a city or some shit.

Depends on perspective.
His Jihad was reaction to an expanding church with a more aggressive agenda.
At the same time, Islam was also becoming more tame.
But whatever. They're shit.

him and dick lionheart used to have the gaysex

The massacre took place near Acre after Richard had captured the city and hostage negotiations with Saladin had failed. The revolts took place in France, he and his brothers wanted more independence. .
>>72419318
He killed all the jews in England before leaving for the holy land, then he BTFO Saladin in every battle even after the French and Germans gave up on the crusade. A true Christian hero

I'd rather a thousand historical threads than one threads about 'redpilled youtubers'
>>72418821
He wasn't exactly the pious pure-hearted holy warrior that muslims and leftists love to depict. But we can't deny that he was pretty decent, compared to the barbaric islamist warlords before him (Muhammad included).
>>72418972
Political perspective influence historical perspective. That's why Marxists utterly hate Andrew Jackson, without taking in count that he was a war hero and a great president, only because he owned and traded slaves, something that was normal back then.
>>72419318
And Saladin repeatedly enslaved thousands of captives and civilians, neither of them were saints.
