This is exactly why I wrote "try to be."  We're human, not perfect and 
sometimes we err.  And as far as what happened when the Hebrews came 
into Judea being bloody, I'm told that the two books of the Maccabees 
were left out of the Tanach not because there was any doubt of their 
historical accuracy, but because they're too bloody and violent, being 
the history of a rebellion and War of Independence.

There's an old joke that tells why, when three Jews get together you end 
up with five synagogues: one for me, one for you, one for him, that one 
in the valley we're all boycotting and the one on the hill that we can 
all compromise on.
