"Crusade" is exactly the word that's been running through my mind today. A sad, stupid, senseless crusade. Started by a group of men who do not understand the costs of war. Waged by soldiers who can't grasp the stakes in this conflict. Launched on accusations and promises that have so far proven to be baseless at best, outright lies at worst. Something tells me it will be quite awhile before any Saladins or Richards step forward in this crusade.

So much pointless bloodshed. And we've only just begun. What's wrong with us?
