if you had stopped their you would have been 100% correct. This appears to be Islams time out of the Abrahamic faiths for slaughter and havoc, but all 3 share the blood lust and divine mandate to genocide and conquest, the old testament makes the first duty of the faithful totally clear, the annihilation of all unbelievers, then the death of all believers who ever had contact outside the faith.
So yes this is about faith, the death cult of abraham.
