Reminds me of in the "End Times" series of books of how the Middle East will once again become green and fertile.
They were substantially greener until two things:
1) The Arabs cut down most of the trees, significantly increasing the evaporation rate.
2) The Arabs murdered the Mongolian ambassador. The Mongolians were put out by this and sacked multiple major cities and destroyed widespread aquaduct systems.
You know what you get when you increase evaporation and destroy the aquaducts? A miserable desert.
Very interesting I know that both Easter Island as well as Haiti had been deforestated as well. Arabs are such disgusting destructive niggers.
