Christians and Jews have always been permitted to practise their faiths in Muslim countries. Until recent emigration depleted their ranks, Christians formed around 13 percent of the Palestinian population and continue to form a large proportion of the Lebanese population. In the twentieth century, Christians and Jews have sometimes even risen to high political office in several Muslim countries. Having said that, in earlier times Christians and Jews were subjected to higher taxes than Muslim citizens. And persecution sometimes occurs in individual countries, depending on the views of the regime in power. The crusades are perhaps an extreme example of the former differences in attitude to other religions. In 1099, the Christians of the First Crusade took Jerusalem and massacred the mainly Muslim population. In 1187, Saladin recaptured Jerusalem but spared the Christians who had settled there.
