Crusades apologists too. Funny for their proclaimed love of Jews since Jews were just as much victimized as Muslims were in those.

More so, in a way. The Muslims were at least all in countries where they could defend themselves militarily. The Crusades often slaughtered all the Jews in their path, and in Europe the hyper-religiosity of the Crusades meant vicious oppression of the Jews who were citizens there.

I really dislike apologists who try to pretend that Muslim vs. Jewish is some ancient bitter blood feud. The Christians still hold the Jewish-slaughter record, even without counting Hitler and the Nazis— whose anti-semitism can be traced strongly to Martin Luther’s savage hatred of the Jews.
