| One of the most often used lines of Arab anti-Israel propaganda is the comparaison they like to make between the Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem and the modern State of Israel. The Crusaders Kingdom existed less than 200 years before it was destroyed by the Muslims; so too, will be the end of Israel, claim the Arabs. Historians and Zionist academicians dismiss the Arab claim as irrelevant and devoid of any historical substance. ?There is no room to compare between the Crusaders who were a religious-Christian movement, whose main purpose was the claiming of the ?Holy Sepulcher? from the heretic Muslims, and Zionism, which is the national liberation movement of the Jewish people who returned to their original and natural homeland.
