And John Locke is who the FFs referred to when getting religion the fuck out of government, while the Christian Right in the USA that rejects John Locke.
Look at the Right treats Trump with “divine right” of breaking the law at his pleasure. A Justice of the Supreme Court the United States, flew a Christian Right flag over his beach house…though he blamed it on his wife.
The Gaza War, when you factor in the Right Wing religious fundamentalists from all three religions who are the most involved in either killing as many Muslims or killing as possible or as many Jews as possible, is a religious war.
Even if you believe the every Muslim death is justified for your national security, it is evil, even so.
Also, I would say the Holocaust was a religious war.
Our Declaration of Independence is obviously based on Locke's philosophy. Show me some members of the Christian right who condemn John Locke.
Even Trump is not calling to bring religion back into government. (It would be ridiculous if he did, as he is obviously an amoral Machiavellian.)

Hamas and the Palestinians may see it as a religious war. But Israelis who are agnostic or atheist are united on the need to fight this war to destroy Hamas. Even Israeli Arabs are taking Israel's side. The goal of the war is not to advance Judaism, but to destroy a murderous gang that has promised to commit more atrocities.
Also, I would say the Holocaust was a religious war.
The Nazis may have believed that they were acting in accordance with God's will. But they did not target the Jews because of the Jews' religion. Instead, they were targeting the Jews as a RACE. Thus, even Jews who converted to Christianity were still targeted. One of the predecessors of the Nazis said, regarding Jewish conversion, "You cannot resign from your race."
