Don't expect it from Karen Armstrong either, though her laughable book on the Crusades lines the shelves at the bookstore. Armstrong begins recounting the Crusades with the decree of Urban II.

Exactly. Just forget the over 400 years of Jihading from Spain and the gates of Paris to Asia (leading to the near extinguishing of Eastern Christianity); present a sanitized benign view of the dhimmis under Islam and you have the recipe for pro-Islamic revisionism.
