Challenge: Latter-day crusade

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to have a new crusade organized by the present day with a POD no earlier than 1550. And it has to be against Muslims, so you can't twist the word.
 
Hah, a Crusade in the name of Manuel II, Byzantine Emperor, initiated by Pope Benedict XVI against the peace-hating followers of Muhammad. :D A hilarious thought.
 
Turks take Vienna in 1683?
That would get christendom nice and scared and possibly prompt the pope into making the counter attack a crusade.
