No we fought no war with Christians in Iraq. That they were under an Islamic regime subject to Islamic rule does not mean we were fighting them.
Um, buz, Iraq was pretty much a secular military dictaorship, not a religious Islamic regime.
Saddam Hussein was a military dictator, not an Ayatollah or a cleric.
Now, the Taliban in Afghanistan, THAT was an fundamentalist Islamic regime.
Not a fundamentalist regime, but still a fairly barbaric and oppressive Islamic regime would be Saudi Arabia.
Bush was giving foreign aid to the Taliban right up to Sept 11, and he hosted members of the Taliban as honored guests in Texas when he was govorner. We all know how incredibly close the Bush family and the Saudi family are, too, them both being oil families.
