I think “Thou shall not kill” translates as Thou shall not murder.

Correct.

The passages that prohibit killing use the word “retzach” (to slay, murder, kill). The Bible never uses the word “retzach” in conjunction with war.

You are absolutely correct. It is thou shall not murder.

There are some people that just need killin' ASAP. ISIS immediately comes to mind.

Semper Fi!

Yes. There are many places in the Bible where killing was just, and necessary.
