Score zero for IBIGs reading comprehension for missing point 2 (or intentionally ignoring it - which is more likely?).
Oldman - in (defense?) of the Psalm, that one was probably written by an Israelite exiled to Babylon who was dreaming of the good old days, so I'm not sure that can be laid at God's feet. However, it does refer to the (mythical) wars of conquest where the genocide occurred, and it is in the divinely inspired bible, so you can say that God approves of it...so maybe it can. I wouldn't call it a command in that instance, but I'd definitely go with the "God approves" side of the argument.
Doesn't change your point one bit, but I just wanted to clarify that bit (assuming my knowledge is correct, that is).
