That’s as meaningful as telling us your favorite color.
Being an Israelite during that time justifies killing your enemies’ little children?
You don’t need justification to kill offspring of rivals in a purely natural universe. There are no obligatory moral obligations.
In a reality with an existing creator God he can order the end of every man, woman, child, and the universe as he sees fit.

Isn’t that your own position?
Not my position. It is a false equivalence to compare killing children left over after a battle, to abortion.
Most countries have agreed that killing civilians after a battle is immoral.
No it isn’t.
So now human life has inherent value?

And they could change their minds. It’s not like deciding gravity doesn’t exist only to have reality smack you in the face.
And that psalm wasn’t written anytime recently.

It has whatever value we place on it.
If there are no inherent moral obligations and no inherent value, the Israelis sung a perfectly ‘justified’ psalm.
Most of the bible wasn’t written anytime recently. The most recent written was around 200 AD.
Then they were justified.

Then why are you bringing up agreements between modern nation states?
Would you be for killing the children of USA’s enemies after battles? Maybe, just the civilians?
You believe that their is objective morality which is laid out in the bible, correct? If so, it seems like you believe the above should be carried out.
Because you seem to believe in objective morality from god, written in the bible.
No, because I’m bound as a Gentile to the new covenant. There is no Christian Israel/Zion we’re obligated to create/defend.
And if I were, so? The universe and nature doesn’t care. I wouldn’t be objectively wrong.
Besides, we already live on the inheritance of a USA built in part as you describe.
What does this mean? That you get to disregard parts of the bible?
Are you for the premedatied killing of 600k human lives simply for being unwanted? You seem hung up on killing human lives after battle.
Yes, as laid out in the bible itself. You need to review Jesus and the Apostles dealing with the law, gentiles, etc.
So god had someone write his words down (being omnipresent and omniscient), then later was like man that’s a bit F’d up by today’s standards, better add the new covenant.
