So which Big Time Cristians say the following?

"He decided that the only treatment they merited was to have their
fighters
killed, their women taken captive, and their property seized as booty.

Some Orientalists claim that Muhammad was cruel to the Jews, but this is
how determination should be. One must be firm when firmness is warranted,
and gentle when gentleness is warranted."

Pope Urban II issued orders that the Moslem peoples should be all killed and
the holy land freed from the non Christians.

The First Crusade was the most successful from a military point of view.
Accounts of this action are shocking. For example, historian Raymond of
Agiles described the capture of Jerusalem by the Crusaders in 1099:


"Some of our men cut off the heads of their enemies; others shot them with
arrows, so that they fell from the towers; others tortured them longer by
casting them into the flames. Piles of heads, hands and feet were to be seen
in the streets of the city. It was necessary to pick one's way over the
bodies of men and horses. But these were small matters compared to what
happened at the temple of Solomon, a place where religious services ware
ordinarily chanted. What happened there? If I tell the truth, it will exceed
your powers of belief. So let it suffice to say this much at least, that in
the temple and portico of Solomon, men rode in blood up to their knees and
bridle reins."

The Christians of that era were just as cruel and barbaric as what you are
attributing to the Moslems of the time.
