This seems to be a very popular little quote making it's rounds in the left side of cyber-space. Unfortunately (or fortunately) my google-fu has not produced any verifiable sources to back up this story. I am only a yellow belt, so maybe if one of the resident google-fu grand masters can point me to a site (other than the Drudge Retort or Rachel Madow) that tells more of this horror, I would be grateful for the learning experience.

Runcilman's three volume classic History of the Crusades and Tyerman's more recent God's War offer comprehensive resources for this subject - if you have the inclination and the time.
