Like there wasn't anti-semitism before that. Remember egypt?

The Great Revolt in 70 C effected Jews in EUROPE.
Like I said, Jews became a Diaspora 517 years before that, at the hands of Anti-Semitism. The first crusade wasn't untill a thousand years later. Anti-semitism was rampant for 1000 years before. The first crusade was an important moment in Islamic history, but not for Jews. In fact, a great deal of Jews were persecuted simply because they were lumped in with Muslims, as being the same thing.
So if we're talking reading comprehension, it's a shame I had to repeat that.
I think you were trying to make some moral equivalency and use United States history to apologize for the current oppression of women in the Middle East? Why bother.
