``We're responding all across the globe to murders of Americans,'' Mr. Bush said. ``We're responding by working with our Arab friends and Israel, of course, to track these people down. The war on terror is fought on many fronts. And I just - I cannot speak strongly enough about how we must collectively get after those who kill in the name of - in the name of some kind of false religion.''

Ari Fleischer, the White House press secretary, said after Mr. Bush's remarks that the president had not meant to disparage Islam, but rather the Islamic militants who kill in the name of Allah. ``The president believes very deeply that Islam is a religion of peace, and there are people who use the pretext of religion as an excuse to kill Jews, to kill Israelis and now to kill Americans,'' Mr. Fleischer said. ``And the president will oppose that with every fiber of his body.''

Shows you what he REALLY thinks about Islam.
