No. The "sword type of jihad" is called Jihad bes-Saif (جهاد بالسيف) and refers explicitly to armed fighting in the way of God. The jihad in which one exerts oneself to be a better Muslims is the Jihad bel-Nafs (جهاد بالنفس).
Yes, but they were not entitled to do it because Jihad is above all the spiritual cleaning.
Jihad is not one of the five pillars of Islam. The five pillars are Shahada (faith declaration), Salat (prayer), Zakat (charity), Sawm (fasting), and Hajj (pilgrimage). Jihad, which means striving or struggling, is an important concept in Islam but is not one of the pillars.

Hajj is a kind of worship. The Muslims perform Hajj. It has nothing to do anything with soldiering or fighting. It is Jihad in which armed men take part, not Hajj.
God did. Jihad means, simply, to strive to establish good, over evil. It can take many forms: writing, speaking, voting, etc. It can also take the form of fighting; however, it can never take the form of terrorism. God established these things not only for the Muslims. He established it even in the Bible. But terrorism is something different completely. Terrorism is not jihad because jihad is only for just causes and in just ways.
