#4 During the Great Siege of Malta, after a protracted siege of Fort St. Elmo, the corpses of the Knights of Malta as well as the Priest of Malta, were mutilated in various ways, then dressed in their garb, nailed onto crosses and floated into the bay as a way to break the defenders' moral.

Disgusted at the treatment of the survivors and corpses, in retaliation La Valette had all of the muslim captives slain and decapitated and cannonaded the heads at the Turkish army.

Brutal? Perhaps. But the jihadis were parlay violence as intimidation. The muslim corsairs were much, much worse. They would land in the dead of night, and raid a village with an eye on VIPs, being sure to cut the rope to the church to prevent warnings. In the morning, VIPs would be marched out on the beach for ransom. Those who could make ransom were left in poverty. Those who didn't, to the slave markets. Entire villages within 10 miles of the coast; starving the local population.
