Yes, there were dark times in Christian history, but they pale to what the Muslims have wrought. Even if the Islamics were to wipe out every other religion (or lack thereof--remember that, atheists) and converted them over to Islam, their horror and terror would still continue on their own subjects!! Is that a religion of peace?

There is justification for war in the bible. Basically it says it would be completely irresponsible to allow someone to destroy you and your religion. Therefore it says self-defense, guard and protect. I, as a Christian, don't want all of the Islamics wiped out---never---I want to protect my beliefs and prevent them from taking away my religious right. America protects those rights (so far), and therefore, I support the stance on the WOT.
