Baldwin II: "Ante aliquot annos vicimus Hierusalem. Gladiis nostris utamur. Ad Damascenus imus! Syria madet sanguine Christianorum. Antiochia in manu Christi. Damascenus exspectat! Urbs emergit ex horizonte. Crusegnati, semper porro! Circumdate muros orbis, obsidete portas! Nunc pugnamus Saracenos. Interfecti in terra iacent. Non refert utrum revertamur necne, pugnamus pro cruce! Defectus spei in cordibus bellatorum. Terra sicca et aspera erat. Viris in loricis summa aestate deserte mortem affert. Inimicitiae cesserunt orationibus. Christiani in gratiam redierunt. Spiritus caelestis super nos venit: 'PORRO IN CAMPOS CAELI!'' Tajul Mulk: "Uluğluk sana ol bedüklük sana. Senindin adın yok sana tuş tene. Aya ber birikmez sana bir adın. Kamuğ aşnuda sen sen öndün kedin. Yağiz yer yaşıl kök kün ay birle tün, törütti halăyik öd üdlek bu kün. Tiledi törütti bu bolmıš kamuğ. Bir ök bol tedi boldı kolmış kamuğ."

A defeat in major battle but certainly good news for the crusaders for a change, finally succession is secured, reinforcements arrive from Europe, new heir to antioch seems capable enough, victory at Marj al Saffar, Capture of Marfaniya,Banyas is taken without loss, the assassins come to the frankish side rather than the sunni side, civil strife between edessa and antioch is avoided.

Seljuks, Artuqids, Burids, Danishmends, Sökmenids, Zengids are all dynasties of Oghuz Turk origin, the Mamluks who came after them are Kipchak Turks, the Ottomans are Oghuz Turks, you Asharis were writing books at that time, hiding in the cities and begging us Maturudi Turks to save your lives. Only the Ayyubids are a dynasty of Arab origin. They are a Turkified dynasty because they were slaves of the Zengi Dynasty. They are a failed, thieving, immoral, liar dynasty. They have no success other than taking Jerusalem. And They will give it back to the infidels in the 5-6th Crusades. What really saved Jerusalem were the Khwarezm Oghuz Turks who survived the Mongol Oppression.
