7 When the Lord thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou;
2 And when the Lord thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them:
3 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son.
4 For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of the Lord be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly.
5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.
6 For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth.

That's nothing compared to the genocides the atheist Jews of the early Soviet Union did.

So... some iron age population thought they were their God's chosen people. That didn't really work out. (see: Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Neo-Assyrians, Neo-Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Malmuks, Crusaders, Islam (Islam again, under the Caliphate), Ottomans, British, etc.)
I don't see how these writings implicate the Jewish people in anything. If anything they just got fucked over again and again. The writings are obviously post-bronze age collapse fairly tales, and the Jews really got the fucking short end of the stick even if they made it seem like they did some stuff way back when. So it's a little weird to blame them for something someone wrote over a millennia ago.

@635,402 (E)
what blame, it's just what's in the Old Testament as translated from the Torah (wiki: the Torah consists of the foundational narrative of the Jews: their call into being by God, their trials and tribulations, and their covenant with their God, which involves following a way of life embodied in a set of moral and religious obligations and civil laws)
you can't blame modern day people for what some jerks wrote centuries ago
maybe modern day people should edit out the shit parts of their holy books
