Cool; a Crusade against rebellious Occitan barons who grew too wealthy and rebelled against the Crown of France...
Crusades against Norsemen and Slavs who still followed barbarian faiths (see; slavery, human sacrifice, the fun stuff...)
--- Yeah, the Jew stuff was pretty bad. They were involved in the slave trade (primarily transportation and castration) of Europeans to sell to Muslims as well as the tax collection of peasants, so... understandable anger, but not justified still. ---
Okay; again, Prussian/German noblemen with some Polish and Norman aristocracy and the Druzinha of places like Novgorod and Valadimir (like the Crusade of Southern France) was primarily a secular affair between noblemen, often time the 2-6th sons of lords back West looking to expand their power in the only way they knew how.
Anyways, by your own examples the majority of the Crusades were justified; and also, the "God will sort his own." is a fake quote, it sickened me too.
