Well, not so much Oklahoma City, but yes on the Crusades.
The OKC bombing was the work of people who made no such claim that God was on their side, as far as I know. But throughout the Crusades BOTH sides ostensibly used religion as an excuse for grabbing all the power and resources they could. I'd say there's a lot of that going on right now, mostly on the part of the Jihadists.
Oops sorry, there I go using that made-up word again. ABC, with all your knowledge of all things Middle Eastern, would you give Fawaz Gerges a call and let him know to stop using it, too.
