THE CRUSADES:

 

 

lf you assume it from Christian reports, then the Christian Knight fought in humanity and because of the Will of God and the Honour of God. The "evil Unbeliever", in the fight, behaved high‑spirited, pride and was extreme in killing.

The Unbelievers are for the roman Church, according to it's asolutistieal demand all Different‑believing and the Unbaptisted. But in the first degree, they were the Arabian "idol servants" and "devil‑worshipper" as they called the Muslims with a feeling of revulsion in their preaches

 

1 am now going to say you, what really happened in the Crusades:

Pope Urban 11 travelled 1095 for a conceal from Rome to Upper‑Italy. but that was just pretended. The pope had other thoughts.

 

It was like that, that pope Urban 11. wanted the splitting of the Christians, through pope Gregory VII., in the East‑church and the Roman Church to be reversed by uniting the Christians. The emperor also wanted some mercenary troops from the pope for the battle

against the Turks, who grew stronger and therefore dangered the influence of the emperor.

The pope saw a possibility to unity the Christianity by giving them a concept of the enemy. This operation was so important for him, that he studied his speech a few days before, so that everything works perfect:

 

So the representative of Christ called in Claremont in November 1095:

"Christlans! A terrible message has reached us. The people of the Persian empire, a wicked, alienated from God, Race, have entered the Christian countries and devastated them through Fire, Sword, and plundering. The Persians have desecrated many churches of God. They have defiled the altar with rubbish. They have eircumcisioned many Christlans and spilled their blood in the baptismal font. Who should revenge this injustice? Who should get back these countries, if not you? You are the population, to who God has given weapon honour, spiritual­greatness, physical‑strength and bravenes, to humiliate the proud heads of those, who are resisting you. Go there and fight against the barbarian. go there and fight for the liberation of the holy cities. "

Urban held a cross in the air:

Thrist himself comes out of his grave and shows you bis cross. Carry it on Shoulder and breast. it will always remember you, that Christ died for you and that it is your duty to die for him.tt

 

With the cross on their clothes and their flags, they went into the promised land.

 

But before the Muslim were slaughtered, the Christians slaughtered the Jews, because they were supposed to have murdered their Lord. The Christians were nearly as professional as the Nazis.

They were beheaded, stabbed to death, burned, stroked down, drowned, suffocated or buried alive in Speyer, Worrns, Mainz, Cologne, Neuss, Altennahr, Xanten, Moers, Dortmund, Kerpen, Metz, Regensburg, Prague,... Only God knows in how much more cities. The stomach of pregnant women for example, was cut open by a sword. Children were murdered in other evil ways.

 

1 want to give you only one example of this time to show you how the relation between them and the Jews was.

 

At the Rivers Rhine and Donna, the crusaders killed thousands of Jews. Some of them had the choose between death and baptism. 1096 half of the Jews in Worms were slaughtered, because the crusaders were going through the town. The Rest of the Jews escaped to the residence of the archbishop to ask for asylum. The bishop said, that he was going to rescue them, if they wanted to get baptised. That was his condition. The Jews then asked to get some time to think about this condition. When later they the doors of the rooms, where the Jews had gone inside, were opened, all the 800 Jews were dead. There were beheaded people, Little children were killed by their fathers. After that, the women were killed and in the end the Fathers killed themselves. this was repeated all over in France and Germany.

 

But the Christians were not gently with their own religious companions. Thousands of Hungarian Christians were raped and murdered on their way.

 

But the Highlight of the Christians acting is read like that:

 

On the 15th of July at 12 am. the Christians conquered Jerusalem. ( ... ) All the Inhabitants of the Holy Towns were the victims of the massacre. The Christians entered the Houses and without choosing, they murdered men, women and children. They robbed all things, which were moveable and many Knights, after the blood‑night, got richer then they were ever before. The crusaders even cut open the stomach and tore out their intestines. They had heard, that the Muslims swallowed their gold coins, to hide them before their enemies.

Daimbert, the archbishop of Pisa, wrote home in august 1099: "If you want to know, what happened with our enemies, so know, that our men were riding in the Column‑entrance of Salomon and in his Temple up to the knees of their horses, in the blood of the Muslims."

The Jewish community escaped into the main synagogue. But the crusaders did not took any consideration. They bumed down the House of God, including all the Jews. After 70.000 people became the victims of the massacre, the crusaders fonned a penitential service.

 

But this was not the end:

Antioch was conquered in spring 1098 by the Christians. Every Turk and Muslim, they could get, was murdered. They are sources, after which 60.000 people were murdered. Nobody was pardoned. (And when 1 say nobody, 1 mean nobody.) You could not walk through the town, without noticing the dead and mountains of corpses everywhere, which caused a absolute unbearable stink.

 

After that 100.000 Turks were murdered in Mussel. Much booty was made in the camp of the commander. Women and little children, who were also in camp, were stroked down by the sword, or kicked to death by the hoofs of the horses.

In Maarat it is estimated, that 20.000 people died. But most of them did not die in the battle, but were tortured to death. Yes, the torture is always mentioned by the chronic of the crusaders.

Women were not pardoned. Babies and children were tom away from the breast of the mothers or tom out of their beds to kill them, by smack them against walls or door. Others were killed by stones.

 

Wilhelm of Tyrus reports:

"Terrible was it, to notice, how murdered and parts of extremities were laying everywhere. And that the earth was completely covered with blood. And not only the humiliated corps and the cut off heads were an terrible picture.

Raymond of Aguiler reports:

"And others were tortured by fire and then burned. You saw crowds of Heads, hands and feet in the houses and the streets. Everywhere people and horses were walking on the dead corps

 

(…)

 

More than one million people were murdered by pope Urban 11. But this pope was beatified on the 14.07.1881. According to the opinion of the church, he can not be punished for his works by God.

 

1 want to mention in the end, that the Muslims behaved themselves more honourable, knightful, although they were the attacked ones. They behaved themselves more honourable and knightful in front of women, defenceless people and children, then the crusaders ever did.
