I have no way of knowing whether that is true, other than having to invest maybe 10,000 hours studying the Qur'an and Muslim culture before I can form an educated opinion as to whether or not it is the Religion of Peace.
The US government has people working time on analyzing Islam and the various Islamic nations. Yet our President (who most of us here trust) not only emphatically denies that we are at war with Islam, but backs his views up with policies and actions. In addition, impeccably credentialed conservatives from Tom Clancy to Grover Norquist insist that Islam is not our enemy.

Norquist married a Muslim woman and may well have converted.
Tom Clancy is a fine novelist (I am a fan of the books he actually writes, rather than much of the crap he licences) but he is not a deep political thinker.
Go read Huntington and get back to me.
