Anyone who is captured will be run through with a sword. Their little children will be dashed to death right before their eyes. Their homes will be sacked and their wives raped by the attacking hordes. For I will stir up the Medes against Babylon, and no amount of silver or gold will buy them off. The attacking armies will shoot down the young people with arrows. They will have no mercy on helpless babies and will show no compassion for the children. (Isaiah 13:15-18 NLT)

I believe you have posted this verse out of context. Look at what situation is this verse related.

Yeah, that's the "god of love" for you, I'm afraid. Well, god himself isn't so bad, it's his little fan-club that I can't stand.
It's not as if the god himself wrote the rule-book, but everyone who had 5 minutes of time and enough army to justify it, kept adding rules into it. That's why it became the biggest collection of contradictions ever bound into a single book. Not even "the complete murphy's law" is as ridiculous.

Newsflash: The Bible is NOT God's rulebook. It's a forgery.
