we're not at war with Islam. We're at war with a certain radical branch of Islam

Nonsense, that statement could have been made about communism, i.e. we're not at war with communism. We're at war with a certain radical branch of communism or we're not at war with nazism. We're at war with a certain radical branch of nazism.

It neglects the fact that we are at war with an ideology that has changed little since the time of Mohamed. We would not have made such ridiculous statements about communism or nazism. Why do we therefore fall into the trap of making them about Islam?

Naziism was a branch of fascism, and we weren't at war with Franco. Near the end of the Cold War China, while never renouncing communism, was our ally.
