Exam question 6

I can't stand the crusades. It's not fair Richard decides to walk in and act like he rightfully owns Jerusalem when our God lies here too. We understand how much Jesus meant to the Christians but our temple is here. Everyone thinks they have the right to own Jerusalem when we should all be able to share it. I don't understand why we can't live in the same city without wanting to kill each other. We should have learned to be civil and live together. There's no need for all the violence.

I understand that he wants to own the city that his savior was born, walked, and died in. But, he also needs to understand that this city is important to us too. Our temple is here, we care about living here, and we don't want to leave. We've always lived here and it's not easy to just pick up and leave. But, if he wants a war he can come down here and have one. We're ready.
