The thing is many Muslims or at least those who have been posting on BBC site now consider that the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are a "crusade" in teh terms of "The Crusades" of the middle ages. Why, because George Bush said the word crusade when he was talking about taking on terrorism. It was jumped on to mean religious crusade which wasn't helped by teh fact that publlically GWB is a religious guy. It is a shame none of them found a thesaurus and looked up the other meanings of the word crusade and thought about whether he meant something else....
