... didn't Israel/Jews have Jerusalem FIRST before Muslims attacked and took it from them and called it their holy city after?

I think the "All Muslims are terrorists" stereotype is obviously ignorant, but we don't need to rewrite history either. Muslim has a past that's just as violent as other Abrhamic religions.
Also, random trivia, but a lot of the Crusades weren't actually condoned by the Catholic Church (at least according to the Catholic Church now... which is dubious at best, but). But, like, I really doubt they approved of the Children's Crusade.
