System of a Down - War? Meaning

Song Released: 1998
War? Lyrics
The man you fight,
With all your prayers, incantations,
Running away, a trivial day,
Of judgment and deliverance,
To whom was sold, this bounty soul,
A gentile or a priest ?
Who victored over, the seljuks,
When the holy...
-
Religion? Fighting off the anti-christians and those who don't believe in god?
"we will fight the heathens."
just the way I perceived it. This could also be about antidisestablishmentarianism. I mean that, I'm not saying that to seem like a smartass who knows a big word. -
actually more specifically it's supposed to be that ^^^ but it's also supposed 2 use the armenian genocide, (and now coincidentally the war in iraq tho they wrote this song WAY before that) to examplify the whole using religion to justify war conciously and subconsciously.
