Lest We Forget–The Hanukah Massacre on Gaza–Judaism in its Finest Hour « The Ugly TruthWhen the LORD your God brings you into the land you are to possess and casts out the many peoples living there, you shall then slaughter them all and utterly destroy them You shall make no agreements with them nor show them any mercy You shall destroy their altars, break down their images, cut down their groves and burn their graven images with fire. For you are a holy people unto the LORD thy God and He has chosen you to be a special people above all others upon the face of the earth
Book of Deuteronomy, 7:1-8
