God commanded the Israelites when entering Canaan after the Exodus to kill everyone in the land, including babies. Were those babies "innocent"?

Yes they were.

Explain then how God is just in commanding the infanticide of innocent babies.

Jewish mythology (my personal take).

That's a problem Calvinism has to answer. I think it goes with how God is just in creating innocent babies born reprobate - doomed as well.
