It is no big secret that God utilized the military of Old-Testament
Israel to accomplish His own goals and to bring justice onto those who
He deemed worthy. Are you insinuating that God was wrong? Granted His
actions would not be deemed "politically correct" in this day and age,
but that is rather irrelevant.

I wonder if you're quoting God's intructions to the Israelites when you
don't truly believe in God at all. (this doesn't seem valid to me)

The other option is, you believe those intructions came from God but
you're saying that He was wrong. (also not valid, at least if you
believe in the God of the Bible)
