Bucket list
On my list of places I want to visit – Jerusalem. I am not a religious man but history is undeniable.
The portrayal of the Muslim-Christian conflict during the crusades predictably raised the ire of various groups. I was privately pleased that “Kingdom of Heaven” Guy of Lusignan was portrayed as a power hungry psychopath while Saladin was portrayed as a civilized intellectual. Why? Just that all important issue of balanced reporting. No one can know the reality. After all, there was no Twitter or Facebook back then and YouTube was still a long way off.
