Well, I think you've lost your way re: the Gospel, but when it comes to the threat posed by Islam, I think we're on the same page.
 
Would the Order have merely winked at his atrocities since it helped defend Christian lands?

You are still viewing the history through the wrong lens. He used the same tactics against the Christians as he did against the Muzzis. No mushy rules of engagement in those days.

His concerns were to preserve, and if possible expand, his realm. He didn't care where is enemies, nor his friends, worshiped. Religion wasn't really a factor.
