1. I don't recall 1/3 to 2/3 of the human race over the whole planet being obliterated in that era.

2. I don't recall wormwood being cast into the sea and 1/3 of the sea life dying and 1/3 of the waters becoming undrinkable.

3. I don't recall 1/3 of the vegetation of the whole planet dying.

4. I don't recall Damascus being utterly and totally destroyed never to be lived in again in that era.
