What you are proposing prevents me from looking at the Crusades as a cool thing that the religious right needs to do again, because it involved disrespectful "force" which you say is "leftist".

You are wrong, of course. Sometimes force is necessary. The founding fathers used force, Hitler used force, and the Crusades used force. It has nothing to do with "forced destruction" being an inherent property of leftism. This is your personal loony invention.
