I agree.
It's also false. All war is about resource control (read: money). We are not engaged against Muslims, we are engaged against those who threaten ourselves and our interests... unfortunately, our "interests" always seems to be a greater motivation.
I don't always agree with our government's decisions in these matters, but how (or to whom) someone does or does not pray is not, and has never been, the issue.
