I don’t necessarily think it’s that easy to say whether major campaigns like that are “lost” or “won” considering we have no ability to do an A/B test of the alternative. I personally think you would have seen a lot more Islamic conquest, that made it further into central and Western Europe during the Middle Ages if there were no crusade and no pushback against islamism. It’s kind of like when people try to say domino theory was disproven by Vietnam. Was it? I don’t think so....who knows where things would have gone without US intervention against soviet expansion in the third world. Similarly without the crusades Islam wouldn’t have stopped and been largely contained among Arabs in the Mid East. The ottomans made it to Vienna but that’s about as far as they got because of resistance. You can’t just declare something like the crusades a useless and unnecessary war. Tell me that the Muslim siege and conquest of Jerusalem was something to let slide when it happens to NYC, London or some major city that you care about and that effects your life and livelihoods. I think if people had more of the facts they’d understand that doing nothing about the siege of Jerusalem would be like the US doing nothing about 9/11 or Israel just taking Hamas rockets without retaliating. Sounds nice, but only if you’re a weak pussy that doesn’t deserve to have a nation let alone lead it!

[@logicalconceptofficial]

Also when you don’t arbitrarily cut off the timeline of the fight for the holy land somewhere in the ottoman controlled 15th century or something then the west is currently winning the war for control of the holy land. Israel and Zionism were always as much about having a friend of the western powers in that region as it was about giving the Jewish people their ancestral homeland back. As a US citizen and non-Jewish Zionist that just saw islamists getting their asses kicked by US/Israeli weaponry...were definitely winning!

I have great respect for Saladin, but he could be just as ruthless as Richard at times. After the Battle of Hattin he executed almost all Templar, Hospitaller, and Turcopole prisoners while selling the Crusader foot soldiers into slavery. In addition, the Massacre at Ayyadieh, where Richard executed 3000 captives from Acre, was prompted in part because Richard believed that Saladin was stalling for time. In addition, Saladin executed all Christian prisoners in his hands after he saw Richard's actions at Ayyadieh.

@Marcelo Henrique Soares da Silva the Latin massacre was far more justified than the 4th Crusade but our Catholic textbooks sell it as they woke up one day unprovoked. The reality is Crusaders would r*pe and help themselves to any Greek countryside and would drunkenly bully merchants and trash the place just do the Latins could break their promises and blame the Byzantines for every failure in the crusades. Meanwhile Italian merchants are gouging they populous and putting all the locals mercilessly out of business and into poverty due lopsided trade deals which culminated in Latin leadership in Constantinople beating down the Greeks even more. There was a revolt when this reached boiling point and the Romans were sick of these foreigners ruining their lives and country while draining their economy by hosting the crusades under the lie of doing “God’s work”. Bohemond betrayed the Crusade for his own ambitions in the First and Fourth Crusade shows God was never in the front of the leader’s minds

@Marcelo Henrique Soares da Silva the Romans had their Italian holdings forced to convert and many forced to flee from Latin/Papal intervention and that’s fine?

Some of the most notable Muslim victories during the Crusades include: -Battle of Hattin (1187): This was a decisive victory for the Muslim forces led by Saladin against the Crusader army led by King Guy of Jerusalem. The Crusader army was largely destroyed, and many of its leaders were captured or killed, including King Guy. -Siege of Jerusalem (1187): Following the victory at the Battle of Hattin, Saladin was able to capture Jerusalem, which had been held by the Crusaders since 1099. The city was taken without bloodshed, and Saladin allowed the Christian inhabitants to leave unharmed. -Battle of Ain Jalut (1260): This was a major victory for the Muslim forces led by Qutuz and Baybars against the Mongol army led by Hulagu Khan. The Mongol advance into the Middle East was halted, and the Muslim forces were able to establish a more secure position in the region. These victories were significant in terms of the impact they had on the Crusades and the balance of power in the region.

Bro, the levant was predominantly Christian when they got to it. From its beginning to its end it was western Christians fighting with Eastern Christians who were seen inferior at the time because they cohabited with Muslims. Many sects of Christianity were demolished by the crusaders... It was never the brave Christians fighting against their Muslim enemies. It was much more than that. And please start showing some respect for Eastern Christians in your stories.

Wrong map at the beginneing of the video : Nicaea and all Anatolia were ruled by the seljuks and Nicaea was "delivered" during the 1st crusade. Only one christian king died during the 3rd crusade, the french king just returned to his country before the end of the crusade. They're not talking about crusades in Portugal and Baltic crusades that were very successfull ...

[@emanuelalmeida8426]

he spoke about the crusades in iberia and the baltics being successfull at 3:17 go check it out

[@jean-baptisterambaud2327]

You're right they talked briefly about it but reducing the crusades and their outcome to what happened in the middle east feel wrong to me.

In the movie Kingdom of Heaven, Jeremy Irons character Tiberias said it best to Balian and to the audience, "First, I thought we were fighting for God. Then I realized we were fighting for wealth and land. I was ashamed."

[@gamingthisera6339]

Until you realize that is actually for both reason

[@soloturk2470]

Main reason was always pride and wealth both Muslims and Christians failed acting for their real norm and goals. Using God for their own selfish goals. Ive been researching more of both sides and how the leaders acted, you will be more dissapointed if you read more. But crusaders attacking and raiding Constantine is a next level dissapointment and shame I guess.

When the First Crusaders entered Anatolia, only the Anatolian part of the Great Seljuks faced them. They did not receive any help from the Great Seljuk Empire and the Danishmends Turks. They were also defeated with forces that were very few in number compared to the Crusaders. However, as a result of their knowledge of the crusaders and their war systems, with military aids taken from both the Great Seljuks and the Danishmends they succeeded in defeating the crusader armies in the crusade of 1101 and the 2nd crusade . If Barbarossa could had left Anatolia during the 3rd Crusade with his original army, he would have given great support to the crusaders. but he couldn't. In fact, despite his large army, the Seljuks had worn out his army before he drowned in the river. Anyway, after this failure expedition, no Crusader army face to go through Anatolia to Middle East. The biggest blow to the existence of the Crusaders was retaking of Jerusalem by the Kharawasmian Turks in 1244. The battle of Hattin and the battle of La Forbie coused the defeat of the Crusader army the extent of destruction. After Crusaders left from The Middle East, the expeditions we call the crusades, that is the Vatican itself led, were made in Europe. The last crusade in this sense was the Battle of Varna in 1444. First, the Christian armies came, took the some parts of Middle East and stayed for about 200 years. After that, Muslim Turks, on the other hand, took places in Europe as far as Germany and stayed in the region up to Vienna for 500 years. Now, everybody, where they're starting to act first, continues to live in that places. We are just trying to understand the structure, meaning, causes and consequences of ancient wars and campaigns. As humanity, we must find ways to prevent ancient wars from recurring in the modern world we live in and causing millions of innocent people to die.
