    OK I'll bite. Imagine you are right there in the "holy land". You may be a farmer or an artisan.
    Then along come those nice people of different race armed and some of them on horses. They proceed to massacre the villagers outside the castle walls.
    YOU however survive another day. The NEXT time you see them what will you think.
    Oh it's those nice people who look no-way like me and like to kill shit, OR would you judge them by their agenda which is totally irrelevant to you anyway?

    Condemning discrimination is easy to do when your survival is guaranteed and you're not afraid for your life so hard your bones shake.
    Humans and indeed animals too discriminate the different from them. It's a BASIC survival instinct.
