If you haven't experienced it yourself yet you probably will after you've lived a little longer. The problem is not to let people like that very in command. Unfortunately Islam reinforces and selects for people like that. Islam is very conducive for evil.

    So this is the story that I think inspired the final battle in the Warhammer 40K book Helsreach, it was a similar last stand but it was Black Templars against a horde of Orks, the only real differences are there were no women and children, and there was no negotiations between the two sides

When a city was taken by storm, as in the case of the 1099 capture of Jerusalem, all bets were off. When a city or fortress surrendered however, as in the case of Saladin's taking of Jerusalem, both sides were expected to abide by any negotiated terms. It should also be noted that even when Jerusalem was taken the first time, the civilian population had mostly evacuated already, because the city had earlier fallen to the Fatimids, and further, many had fled when they knew the crusaders were coming.

    Also worth noting is that "Crusade" is a term invented by historians to describe the various campaigns. At the time, there were several ways of referring to this, such as "the pilgrimage", "the journey", or my personal favorite, "the business".
