Venetians

Tbh they were looking after their own interest and sometimes fought against the Turks.

On the other hand they also sold supplies and weaponry to Turks at the same time so fuck these pasta jews.

Fucking Traitors. Although, if i recall correctly, weren't the crusaders who sacked Constantinople French?

And don't forget that they are the reason why Byzantine Empire fell.

Destroying biggest shield against islamic invasion because of gold (Really sounds like jews) was one of worst things in history of Europe.
And T*rks should also fuck off with their siege of Constantinople. They just took part of already rotten corpse of empire which survived for nearly 1500 years.

(((Venetians))) ordered it.

Venetians took what they had been promised by Alexios(which of course, was bullshit), Crusaders were the ones doing the biggest chimpout and ultimately the ones who led to this whole mess since if they actually paid the Venetians their debt for the crusade(for which Venice had spent a huge amount of money and had to stop their own business for a year), nothing would've happened

Quite funny story, Muslims have a belief that in the Qiyamah, their version of the Day of Judgement/Resurrection, Constantinople will return to Christianity but Turks themselves don't want to believe that part.

Oh so that's why Venice ordered the sack of Zadar, a catholic city they wanted to conquer?

Fuck off spaghetti (((merchant)))

That's before that, and for the same reason, to repay the debt. Venice wasn't even willing to go on a Crusade in the first place.
They were jewed on all sides to begin with.

These fuckers did not care about the ottomans invading the Balkans and they made money selling them arms.
But than they understood the turks were not joking about taking Venice and Roma.

Don't be so surprised, it's a reoccurring tactic. Muhammad's successor waited until the Roman and Persian Empire wore each other out completely in the Byzantine–Sasanian War of 602–628 before sweeping in and conquering them.

It's a sneaky dirty niggerish tactic of attacking when an enemy is at it's weakest that managed to make them spread, because fighting against these empires at their peak would have wiped the Rashidun army completely and they would have never made it out of their desert. A tradition the Turks later followed.
