Sorry if I seem to misled you. I never give him Jeruselum, I give him Antioch. I have retaken and returned it to him several times. This boosts your rep instead of decreasing it. I have had him ally with both the Mongols and Eygpt in my various games. Giving him Antioch will definately put him at odds with the Monguls as they always make a beeline for it.
