The Philistines were not sojourners. They were invaders and declared enemies of Israel. Most of the illegal aliens in our midst are not here to kill us, they are here to work.
Was David a hypocrite for going to war against those illegally moving into Israel's
Again it goes to the purpose of the invasion. If, in fact, these people were coming to take over the land rather than live in it, then David was just in going to war against them. FWIW, any foreigner who thinks that America should give back the Western United States to Mexico is no longer a sojourner, but is a vocal enemy of the United States and MUST be deported.
BTW you didn't give me any scripture. Just vague references to some peculiar situation. Give me a scripture that says that Texas should not have passed the Texas Dream Act. Show me how you could possibly utilize "righteous judgment" in calling Rick Perry a thief for signing it into law.
And that's the point. In the eyes of many, the illegal immigrants are invaders and should be treated as such. I would not agree with that position exactly, but given the numbers of drug-runners and nationalists who still want to claim SoCal and such as Mexico, I can certainly understand those who do.

And I didn't have to; you knew exactly what I was referring to the moment you read it. One does not have to cite chapter and verse to use a historical allusion from the Bible to make a point.
But you continue to miss my point. I'm not saying you're necessarily wrong. All I'm saying is that a person can reasonably and in good faith come to a different conclusion about how the Scriptures apply in this situation than you have, and you need to calm down.

Going to the story of Ruth could we not claim sojourner status for Elimelech and his family?
How should they have been treated?
