Boykin was referring to the somalia operation and the warlord he was sent to get...which he did.

as reported:
"One of his most widely quoted remarks referred to a Somali warlord who boasted that he would not be captured because Allah protect him."

"I knew that my God was bigger than his. I knew that my God was a real God and his was an idol," Boykin said.




Condo Rice explained...
"The president's views on this are absolutely clear, and I think the president is very clear on what he means here. This is not a war between religions. No one should describe it as such," National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rica had said.

I found her explanation fascinating.
The Muslim extreme militants (the terrorists) have said repeatedly that they have a duty to God to kill Jews and Christians. They did not say to kill Hindus, animists and Buddhists...They do not say to kill American Indians, Hispanics, whites, Asians or blacks. They specifically say to kill Jews and Christians.

If these Muslim words spoken repeatedly to each other and often to the press do not smack of religion...If they do not describe a religious war...Then certainly Boykin's remarks cannot be construed that way either.
