Crusades O'Clock Episode 24 - The Seljuks are sidetracked! Why were they so ineffective in challenging the Crusaders 1095-1105?

A lengthy, and hopefully long awaited, episode. We have obviously looked at the Crusaders' victories over the Seljuks and their tributaries, but haven't yet addressed why their Sultans were so ineffective at combatting the Crusader threat...... until now!Buckle up for a story of great escapes, assassinations and executions, family grudges and feisty Turkish princesses. It promises to be a corker... except for Berkiyaruq and his haemorrhoids...Enjoy!#crusades #Seljuks #greatescape #princesses
