Oh lol I get it lol 😆…
I thought there were fall asleep military facts lol read that wrong.
Love it any how 🎉
This is already fire and I’m not even 30 seconds in yet 😂

Lets gooo
Yeah he. Raises an army for “Jihad”, but wait a minute, they raise an army how?? crusade! 😂 huh!!! If that isn’t biased documentary.
The Muslims always had a secret weapon.
Why do they always make it sound like that that almost always win the crusades. But at the end they loose. Why don’t they just tell the truth, that they loose all the crusades but the first one which was a despicable act. To the point it was even the slaughter of Christians and everyone else who lived in Jerusalem. And Salaudin reconquered it easily and with such dignity.
What about what SaAladin did to the Christians at Hatti?
Acre garrison had a chance at least.
guys this is awesome thank you 🙏
Turns out, a well-placed bribe, a sneaky tunnel, or just plain old patience beats 'impenetrable' any day. Who knew the secret to storming a fortress was more about brains than brawn—or maybe just knowing the backdoor password!I have a history channel too, and it's pretty good at putting people to sleep. If you're ever struggling with insomnia, feel free to check it out!
Once again, the mercy of the Muslim code in military. They allowed everyone to leave the island of roads. This is how the Muslims were in battle.
CHRIST IS KING ✝️🙏🏻
I'm bout to sleep real good to this😴
Ottomans are the Muslims……..so, why don't they call them THE MUSLIMS. But somehow everyone else in Europe are THE CHRISTIANS.
Nuh uh
This is too interesting to sleep too lol 🙂
