"...free of any attachment to political and religious ideology."

I hope not. It is those two constructs which legitimize the President's role in standing against terrorism.

1) Political: As President of the USA he has an obligation to stand against brutal tyranny and terrorism where ever such a stand can be thought of as reasonably influential.

2) Religious: As a person of faith he has an personal stake in opposing evil endeavor.
