Yes. They were "holy" wars. Were they right or wrong, divinely directed or directed by man? I would look at history for the answer and say they were not divinely directed since, as Bustin observed, all but one failed. When God is on your side, you don't fail.

I didn't realize this was in dispute. Isn't it a given?

Well, you forgot your sarcasm button.

What if there is a lesson in failing and that's what god wants you to do?

so basically, thou shall not "murder"/ "kill" (depending on your hebrew translations) - unless God says it's okay?

Or unless : an engaged women is seduced by a man other than her future husband, women who practice black magic, some women who are raped in urban areas, children who cursed their parents, some non-virgin brides, Jews who collect firewood on Saturday to keep their families from freezing....etc...

right?
