You are giving him too much credit (i.e., assuming he has a well thought-out coherent connection to those symbols instead of the being vibes based history). The original crusaders were Catholics, which Pete is not. The current Crusade is a Protestant Crusade and he sees himself as a Protestant Crusader (notwithstanding the catholic imagery he got permanently etched into his skin). The Protestant crusade is along the lines of what Nakoichi laid out - they conscript Jewish foot soldiers as functionaries within their Protestant theology to crusade the holy land for the protestant end-times which requires "Jewish" control of the land.
My point is that he doesn't have any serious belief in anything that you're describing, just that he is incredibly racist. They also tend to hate jews, only slightly less than muslims. At most they are "culturally christian" in the same sense that Dawkins is now, it is just slightly rebranded white supremacy.
Trying to see it through scripture at all is already giving him too much credit.
