The 1917 Cog of 1335 Years

Upon General  Edmund  Henry Allenby’s  entrance  into  Jerusalem  on  December  11,  1917,  after the British conquest of the city, he announced, “Now the Crusades have ended.”  Forty years later(14,710 days or 40 years, 3 months, 10 days), in a speech on March 20, 1958, Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser repeated the story, saying, “It was no accident at all that General Allenby, commander of the British forces, said on arriving in Jerusalem: ‘Today the wars of the Crusaders are completed.’"
