  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Crusades
Crusaders were also granted indulgences and temporal privileges, such as exemption from civil jurisdiction, inviolability of persons or lands, etc. Of all these wars undertaken in the name of Christendom, the most important were the Eastern Crusades, which are the only ones treated in this article.

The 13th century Crusades never expressed such a popular fever, and after Acre fell for the last time in 1291, and after the extermination of the Occitan Cathars in the Albigensian Crusade, the crusading ideal became devalued by Papal justifications of political and territorial aggressions within Catholic Europe.
A crusading force from Hungary, Austria, and Bavaria achieved a remarkable feat in the capture of Damietta in Egypt in 1219, but under the urgent insistence of the papal legate, Pelagius, they proceeded to a foolhardy attack on Cairo, and an inundation of the Nile compelled them to choose between surrender and destruction.

The Crusaders held Jerusalem for a century; the last Crusader fortress in the area fell in 1291.
And while the Crusaders were mostly animated by a blood-and-fire interpretation of Christianity, they were also interested in more mundane goals, such as land and treasure.
Here's the same Catholic Encyclopedia: "From the outset the Crusades were defensive wars and checked the advance of the Mohammedans who, for two centuries, concentrated their forces in a struggle against the Christian settlements in Syria."

The fact that accounts of the Crusades were recorded as they are in the history books is due to the overwhelming influence exerted by overzealous religious leaders on historians of the day.It is an unfortunate fact that little remains of the historical representations of what actually happened.
While the historical accounts of the participants and the motives behind the Crusades are inaccurate,they do correctly identify the routes taken by the Crusaders.Their objective was to come up through Europe,eventually arriving in Turkey,staging festival after festival along their way,in much the same manner as the original followers of Dionysus did.
This is how the correct version of the story of the crusades of the Middle Ages has survived;it has been passed along by word of mouth through the centuries by the descendants of the original Dionysean company members,just as the secret of making their wine,and all other important information has been passed along.

 In Defense of Pope Benedict- by Justin Raimondo
In an era dominated by relativism and political correctness, where all religions are supposedly equal and truth is a matter of opinion (usually someone else's), it is refreshing to see someone uphold what they believe and defend it against all comers.
What is fascinating is his point that the long-term trend within Christian circles, Catholic as well as Protestant, has amounted to a process of "de-Hellenization," i.e., an attempt to divorce Christianity from what the "reformers" regard as alien accretions of the Hellenistic period.
He was, in short, a practitioner of what the neocons call "appeasement," and what historians of the period point to as some pretty adept diplomacy.

A recession in the media industry has led to a slump in advertising revenues, which means that the cover price of many newspapers is less than their cost price, so as sales soar so do losses.
Given that the Taliban PR "offensive" consists mainly of restricting the number of journalists allowed to enter its territory, the uneven and mainly low-grade reporting of the tenth crusade against terrorism is hardly surprising.

Iraq was just one of three major imperial crusades in the last decade, orchestrated by a new generation of American politicians, both Democrat and Republican, who backed pre-emptive strikes to overthrow unruly regimes in Yugoslavia and Afghanistan under the pretext of humanitarian intervention.
Years ahead of the pack, they exposed the economic motives behind the wars and how fraudulent intelligence, a spaniel press corps, a servile United Nations and corporate propaganda techniques were used to foist them upon the public.
Imperial Crusades chronicles the lies that are now returning almost daily to haunt the liars in Washington and London, the secret agendas and the under-reported carnages of these wars.

The United States and Great Britain are currently engaged in the Tenth Crusade, an effort to assert control over the Middle East.
This crusade began in 1983, when Ronald Reagan sent troops into Lebanon to prop up a Western-leaning government after Israel had invaded the country.
But within months the Marine barracks in Beirut were bombed, killing hundreds, and the United States has since been lumped in with earlier Crusaders as an aggressor deserving of counterattack.
