Many vilify the crusades without examining the both sides of the issue. It shouldn't be forgotten that the Moors invaded Europe priot to the crusades. Islam was a new religion conquering vast areas by force. There are two sides to that story. Political correctness condemns many to vilifying themselves rather than looking at the issue from an fair perspective.

French and English colonialism in later years had much more to do with any lingering resentments than did the ancient crusades.
