Nice to hear a balanced piece that places the Crusades in historic context. Most 19th century revisionist versions, popular today, posit Arab states as 'passive' recipients of religious hysteria, while ignoring their aggressive Muslim proselytization and persecutions of Christians and non-believers that went on for centuries prior to the Crusades.
