This is a long piece, but you can handle it. You need to. This article is just part of the intro for an upcoming book, but it is an extremely fascinating look at The War on Terror as compared to and even as a result of the Christian Crusades of 1000 years ago.

As you read it, please consider that major historical events were rarely considered as such by the people who lived through them. It is only in retrospect that an event’s significance can truly be judged.

Enjoy…
