And you trying to paint a bloodthirsty death cult as more civilized has what to do with what is being argued? You have the attention span of a fly. Islam invaded mostly Christian Europe for literally hundreds of years before the first Crusade, therefore, the Crusades were not responsible for the divisions between the two, contrary to everything anti-Christian liberal bigots say.
Try to comprehend the topic and stay on it for at least one post this time, Sparky.

There are multiple people here who can't understand Kindergarten concepts like the difference between races and religions.
Newsflash: There are white, black, Asian, and Arab Muslims. No race of people is being exterminated...the root word of genocide being the Greek "genos," meaning "race or tribe" (connected to the word 'gene')...have they discovered an Islam gene that I am not aware of? Or is killing off a death cult bent on global conquest (otherwise known as 'self-defense') not genocide?
“If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”

Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.

You could also say Christianity was a death cult considering the witch burnings in Europe that were condoned by the Catholic church as well as the Protestant churches.
The purpose of the Crusades was that church power was waning.. The crusades supercharged the believers and the looters were doing it for God.

Genocide is intentional action to destroy a people (usually defined as an ethnic, national, racial, or religious group) in whole or in part. The hybrid word "genocide" is a combination of the Greek word génos ("race, people") and the Latin suffix -cide ("act of killing").

Well, there are no races other than the human now, or for a very long time. Do you date back further? 'Religions' are mostly about appeasing fifth-century BC tyrants transferred to the sky or somewhere similar, as far as I can see, though they all tend to contain very useful ethical and other elements which, in the cases of Christianity and Buddhism, seem central enough to escape the 'religious' tag.
