Both are true.
The Hussite Wars are a prime example of that. There were 5 crusades against Christian Protestants. The very idea of a crusade against Christians is already not OK, but their ideas weren't particularly heretical and differed little from ordinary Christian dogmas.
Ah, and all 5 ultimately failed, and everything ended with the recognition of the Hussites.
The fact that they later fell apart on their own is a different story.
