Cite what? Saladin is one of the most respected figures of the medieval world. As for the Jews being burned alive it's well documented in various places. Despite the efforts of people like Bernard of Clarivaux to protect them. It's one of the key events (Jews refusing to convert and being burned alive) in modern Jewish history.

Yes, cite a respected history of the period that states that the Crusaders burned Jews alive in the Lavent. I am not saying your wrong. I have not read that, and would like a cite, if, as you say, it is true.
