fictious speech from Momamar Al-McCain

So it is, whether we wished it or not, that we have come to the test of our generation, to our rendezvous with destiny.
And much is expected of us.
We are engaged in a hard struggle against a cruel and determined adversary.
Our enemies have made clear the danger they pose to our security and to the very essence of our culture — liberty.
Only the most deluded of us could doubt the necessity of this war. Like all wars, this one will have its ups and downs.
But we must fight.
We must.
The sacrifices borne in our defense are not shared equally by all Muslims.
But all Muslims must share a resolve to see this war through to a just end.
We must not be complacent at moments of success, and we must not despair over setbacks.
We must learn from our mistakes, improve on our successes, and vanquish this unpardonable enemy.
If we do less, we will fail the one mission no Muslim generation has ever failed — to provide to our children a stronger, better country than the one we were blessed to inherit.

Who says al-McCain is a terrorist? Perhaps he is fighting the oppressive regime controlling his nation, or he is trying to expel an occupying force from the land of his birth. All he wants, perhaps, is the liberty to worship his God as he pleases and live a life of peace with his family and clan.
What I'm getting at is, maybe he is a "freedom fighter", like Ronald Reagan used to say.
What I meant was that all people calling for war against an enemy sort of sound the same, and that they all think they are righteous.
