Give back the land to the Christians? But the land belonged to the Jews. Both Obama and his critics have a lot to learn about the Crusades.

Obama knows nothing whatsoever about the crusades, his advisors put that bug in his ear and then had to explain what it was about. He’s personally as dumb as the proverbial box of rocks.

Silly us. Really? Name a single subject that he’s NOT an expert on. LOL! Can’t find one? How about puttin’ it to the country that enabled him to be in the position he’s in. He has ‘expertly’ convinced a whole lot of IPOS/SPOS that he’s some kind of wonderful.

"... before making an ass of himself."

That moment occurred long ago and has been repeated countless times since.

Based on what the real purpose of the Crusades was about, I think it is about time for another Crusade.

The Christian Crusaders went to LIBERATE Jerusalem from the Muslims, and not for themselves or they would have colonized it.

"I Don't Think The President Knows Very Much About The Crusades"

And neither do the low-information voters, who believe every word that proceedeth from the mouth of Their Lord And Savior, the Obama, the Messiah, The Won.

And he and his handlers will put their money on that, and win every time.

“Give back the land to the Christians?”

How about just plain old DEFEATING THE MARAUDING MUSLIMS”?

“The Crusades”...........

Not only the crusades, he is missing a lot of other things as well. I Don’t Think The President Knows Very Much About.....ANYTHING. He is told what to do, what to say, etc.
