I’m not missing any points.....we’re not arguing law here. God ordered the killing of children, woman and men to clear the “evil” that was and would be. (It pays to understand fully what evil is.)
Jesus warned.... “He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad” (Matt. 12:30)..... In the fight ‘against evil’ there is no middle ground, no gray area, no neutrality.
The prophet Obadiah severely condemned the Edomites for doing nothing when evil was befalling their brethren, the Jews..... When Jerusalem was invaded by her enemies, the Edomites “stood on the other side” doing nothing but watching the slaughter as spectators.... God said by their failure to act and to help their brethren “even thou wast as one of them” (Obad. 11).
The same could be said of ISIS today....their woman and children are brainwashed fully and I would be comforted if their children were in the arms of Jesus in heaven rather than be raised to love hate and death as they are... and kill as they surely would.
