I do not believe that we are in a religious war. I believe that we are in a war with individuals that hate our country, our people, and our way of life, and that these individuals are using their interpretation of the Islamic faith, among other things, to rally support.

Your statement has a fatal internal contradiction: if we were not in a religious war, such "support" would not be forthcoming.

I think, if we were, the support would include all members of that particular faith.

The only faith, that I can think of, that has a recognised world leader, is the Catholic faith. I don't think that Catholics would wage war on the world. Different factions of the same faiths, worldwide, think differently, probably as a result of differeing interpretations of their published tenets.
