FYI, some of the dates given here for the three invasions of Egypt do not agree with the dates given on the pages for Nur ad-Din, Bilbeis, and Damietta, though it seems to agree with the Shirkuh page against the other three on one of the dates. I don't have any idea which are correct, but it would be nice if Wikipedia were at least self-consistent. — B.Bryant 06:38, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I suspect this one is wrong, if only because it comes from the 1911 Britannica and they seem to be a little off sometimes. But I'll see if I can sort it out (unless someone else does it). Adam Bishop 08:23, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Is it any better now? There were more than three invasions - he was there in 1163, 1164, 1167, 1168, and 1169. The other pages now reflect this too, I think. Adam Bishop 06:43, 8 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Removed the reference to the "blunder" of attackign "allied" Damascus during the second crusade. Damascus had broken its alliance with the Kingdom of Jerusalem by the time of the second crusade - the Damascenes had shifted their allegiances to the Zengids and Mu'in ad-Din had attacked the Kingdom's allies in Bosra and Sarkhad. The Kingdom had fought an inconclusive battle with the Damascenes outside Bosra in 1147. An attack on Damascus under these circumstances was inevitable if the second crusade were to stand any chance of defeating the Zengids.
