But u know terrorists around the world are never called terrorists.. instead they are called 'Rebels or Voilent Group' etc., this word is reserved only for muslims.
Like so, our media hasnt mold our minds to address our troops like that.

The Crusades took place because the Roman Catholic Church translated the Bible into Latin, locked it up behind gates and said, "Thus and thus is what God says." From this we got inquisitions, crusades, indulgences and the like.
When the reformation translated the Bible into German and English, the average person could stand up to the evil popery and say "No!" for the Bible says thus and thus. Then the killing and fleecing soon stopped.
Iraq has to do with security, not religion. Else we would be forcing Christianity on the government. And we are not.

This war at my point of view is more political than religious so I'll not call it crusade if they don't wear a cross in the chest and start killing in name of god while the pope summons even more poeple to the war..

um, I don't think God wills war on anyone. I personally am not against the war- I support that decision, but that does not mean that God wants people to war in his name. God is a God of peace, mercy, and love, essentially.

Nope, it is not a Religious war, if it were, we would shut down and outlaw Islam in the US first, has that happened?
Peace!

Do you know it's gods will? if you do how? I distrust anyone one who says it's gods will because it always so closely coincides with their own.
