I dunno... much organised religion seems prone to atrocity and violence.. Worse for Islam so many seem to be in clannish tribal societies... How can a God be so venal and petty that it requires people to die... that sums it up...

About 20 percent, or 10 million hectares (24.7 million acres) of Russia’s grain plantings were ruined by the worst drought in at least a decade, Ekho Moskvy reported, citing Agriculture Minister Yelena Skrynnik. Russia was world’s third- largest wheat producer in the 2009-2010 season, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Japan is seeking to buy 153,326 metric tons of milling wheat from the U.S., Canada and Australia in a regular tender on July 27, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries said today. The Asian nation was forecast by the USDA on July 9 to import 5.2 million tons in the 2010-2011 season, making it the world’s fourth-largest buyer.

a slightly misleading post i think since Saladin was a rather more benign leader than the crusaders, which would not be that hard admittedly.
