Palin declares holy war

Straight from the AP news feed on Yahoo's front page:


"Our national leaders are sending them out on a task that is from God," she said. "That's what we have to make sure that we're praying for, that there is a plan and that plan is God's plan."

I had a pastor once at my Methodist church who said that when we use terms like "God bless America" in the context of "support our troops," we're essentially declaring holy war. Is that what "Operation Iraqi Freedom" is all about? I didn't think it was. If it is, I'm even more against in than I was before.

Keep in mind, a holy war is how "them there terrorists" see it. Are we above them or not?
