Care to explain just HOW/WHEN Christians exhibited those "turn the cheek, love your enemies" behab=viors during periods like the Crusades and Inquisitions?

Thank goodness Christians would never do anything like force native peoples to abandon their own languages and Gods, eh?
You've got the wrong region. The US is defunding the PA/PLO/Fatah who has been paying around $350 million a year to incarcerated Palestinians/Arabs. The PA/PLO/Fatah puts payments to criminals as a primary outlay of funds and places their own citizens on the bottom of that list.
Didn't Arafat and his wife wind up with a huge Swiss or other overseas bank account?

That doesn't mean you can't act in self defense or in the defense of others.

To the limited extent they may have did that in the past, they weren't acting as good Christians. I never say people who are Christians are perfect. I don't think what language is encouraged in a jurisdiction has to do with anything.
Ridiculous. Was that in Breitbart? Trump has given Israel carte blanche and a blank check. Ivana and Jared are thrilled. Netanyahu is thrilled. Sheldon Adelson is thrilled. Meanwhile, Trump has taken away every single bit of aid for the Palestinians.
“In 40 years following U.S. policy in and outside government never seen any Administration simultaneously support Israel so uncritically and go after Palestinians so harshly both without logic, purpose or national security rationale,” he said. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/t...pitals-n907876
Trump administration cuts $25 million in aid for Palestinians in East Jerusalem hospitals
The decision comes after the state department said it would also end funding to the United Nations relief agency for Palestinian refugees. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/t...pitals-n907876
I guess thousands of workers in the US weaponry factories will not agree with you
US taxpayer money will create jobs elsewhere.

as the people in Washington that want to keep a nuclear state from going to the direction of Russia.
That's not the reason as Israel serves no strategic importance to the US. And will Israel be so eager to join Russia when Russia and Iran are strategic allies? I wonder.
Israel has nukes but your small size makes you incredibly vulnerable even against a country with no nukes, like Iran.

Oh? Where does the Bible state that proviso?
And just who was it attacking the church during the Inquisitions?
