Holy war

A holy war is a war or violent campaign is waged by religious partisans to propagate or defend their faith. It is particularly associated with the jihad being waged by extremist Muslim terrorists.

Unfortunately in many European countries it is nowadays associated with governments that happen to consist of mainly Christian politicians, that are participating in the war against the Taliban in Afghanistan and the freeing of Iraq. They feel their Christian politicians want to destroy the Islam instead of bringing peace and view this as a Holy war.
