The Crusades Explained: From Jerusalem to the Modern World

What if the Crusades never really ended? From the blood-soaked streets of Jerusalem in 1099 to modern wars in the Middle East, this documentary uncovers the full, unfiltered history of the Crusades, not as isolated medieval wars, but as a mindset that still shapes global politics today. We begin with the First Crusade and the massacre of Jerusalem, tracing how Pope Urban II’s call of “Deus Vult” ignited two centuries of religious warfare between East and West. The documentary follows the rise of the Crusader states, the Muslim world’s internal divisions and the emergence of leaders like Imad-ud-Din Zangi and Salahuddin Ayyubi, whose recapture of Jerusalem in 1187 changed history forever. Through the Second and Third Crusades, the legendary clash between Salahuddin Ayyubi and Richard the Lionheart, and the shocking betrayal of the Fourth Crusade that destroyed Constantinople, this documentary exposes how faith gradually gave way to greed, power and politics. We explore the madness of the Children’s Crusade, the failures of later Crusades and the final crushing defeat of Crusader power at the hands of the Mamluks. But the story does not end in the Middle Ages. The film connects the Crusades to the Renaissance, European colonialism, the Sykes-Picot Agreement, the fall of Jerusalem in 1917 and modern conflicts after 9/11. From George W. Bush’s infamous “crusade” remark to Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Gaza, this documentary asks a disturbing question: did the battlefield disappear or did it simply move into minds, policies, and narratives? This is not just a history lesson — it is an investigation into power, hypocrisy, civilisation and the dangerous “us vs them” mindset that refuses to die. Watch till the end to understand why the Crusades may be the most misunderstood — and most relevant, wars in human history.
