[[SarcasmMode Bloody well-done, a triumph for military strategy everywhere, commendations all round, humanity will prevail]]. [[HumansAreMorons God is it any wonder most people who watch this film support the bugs]]?''

36	'''Saladin:''' The results of battles are determined by God. But also by preparation, numbers, the absence of disease and the availability of water. One cannot maintain a siege with the enemy behind. How many battles did God win for the Muslims before I came? [[VerbalBackspace That is, before God determined that I should come]]?\
