Ummayads didn't just attack Spain. They wanting on a wrecking spree in Perisa too. They ancient Persian culture was decimated as the Ummayads decimated the old religions of the area that had peacefully co-existed for millennia before them, actually.
It's a damn shame though, the Crusaders cannot claim the moral high ground. Peter the Hermit in particular stands out as a bit of a noob. The Presents Crusade went across Europe slaughtering Jews before even stepping foot in Arabia. They are no better than the Moors in Spain.
