Christians were politically upset, not religiously as claimed. They invaded the holy land just to get the political support of the church and of their people. When they got control of the lands, they used the Mosques, Muslims worship buildings, as stables for their horses and tortured Muslims. However, when the lands are under control of Muslims, before and after the Crusades, Christians were enjoying full freedom in practicing their ritual worships in a friendly and peacefully environment, as confirmed by Western historians.
According to the Quran, Jerusalem is a holy location for the prophet Mohammed, which is marked by the Dome of the Rock mosque. Islamic fighters in the 1100s and 1200s captured Jerusalem away from the Christian rulers who previously held it to keep it safe in accordance with Islamic principles.

never ever. Christians; per faith; are closer to Muslims than Hindus as both Muslims and Christians worship same God and have many common beliefs. In the historical ancient wars between the Byzantines (Christians) and the Pershians, Muslims were very sad and upset when the Byzantines were defeated and Sone verses of Quran are revealed to tell Muslims that the Byzantines will win in less than 10 years and it happened. Quran says (meaning English translation): The Byzantines have been defeated (2) In the nearest land. But they, after their defeat, will overcome. (3) Within three to nine years. To Allah belongs the command before and after. And that day the believers will rejoice (4) In the victory of Allah. He gives victory to whom He wills, and He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful. (30:2-5)On other occasion Quran says:On other occasion Quran says:You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers (Muslims) [to be] the Jews and those who associate others with Allah; and you will find the nearest of them in affection to the believers (Muslims) those who say, "We are Christians." That is because among them are priests and monks and because they are not arrogant. (5:82)Catholic AnswerThe Holy Father (the Pope) is Our Blessed Lord's Vicar on earth. As such he is here to lead Christians to heaven. The Vatican is only there to carry out his wishes. Individual Christians are responsible to preach the Good News to everyone they meet, the responsibility of convert non-Christians thus is in their hands, on the Holy Father's.

This question assumes that Christians get upset etc. This is not true for all Christians In general, people may get upset and/or may feel insecure when other people say or write something contrary to what they believe, no matter what they believe, no matter the nature of that belief (religious, political, personal etc.). The chance for this to happen becomes higher the more existential this belief is. For example, if you believe that Jesus is your saviour, or that John Brown is your father, you might get upset when someone tells you that Jesus does not exist or that John Brown does not exist, respectively. Whether you get upset depends also on your personality.
