I'm very sorry that you have been steeped in a culture of hatred. That is not true for all jews, I can attest personally.

The canaanites are descended from Adam, but are not Israelites. We commonly refer to jewish persons as jews, but only the descendants of Jacob(Israel) are the people spoken about as "jews" in the bible.

If you care to read the book: Jacob was changed to Israel after he wrestled with God in Man Form. His descendants are real jews according to the old testament. Canaanites are not the same.

Stop playing semantics. I know biblical Jews are differrent from modern Jews. I'm talking about MODERN JEWS and you know it. God instructed the Israelites to kill every last Canaanite. The modern people we call Jews are the DIRECT DESCENDANTS of the Canaanites. You do the math there.

No, they were instructed to kill the cities of Canaan, (phineæca) because if they didn't, those [Philistines] Palestinians would assist every single conqueror.

You don't kill a city.

"16 But of the cities of these people, which the LORD thy God doth give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth: 17 But thou shalt utterly destroy them; namely, the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee: 18 That they teach you not to do after all their abominations, which they have done unto their gods; so should ye sin against the LORD your God."

They sacrificed and ate children. Remind you of anyone? Only difference today is the Jews have brought in raping the kids beforehand.
