Why don't you educate me from what Jesus Taught while he was on earth that warranted the crusades or the Holocaust

One, the Holocaust had NOTHING to do with Christians. That was pagan German Nazis killing Jews.

The Crusades were a defensive war against muslims that had conquered the Middle East. They took back the Holy Land.

Luke 22:36 - Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

How hard is this to understand ? Self-defense is certainly allowed.
