I have enormous difficulty in associating war with God. I have no difficulty at all associating war with humanity. The idea that God would use war for any purpose whatsoever is anathema to me given my experiences. The idea that we perverse and flawed humans would trigger a nuclear apocalypse is disturbingly likely given our demonstrated propensities from the past. Biological devastation from created bioweapons is an equally likely possibility. But any idea that God would be in any way instigating it for some incomprehensible reason is beyond belief.
Anyone who believes, that the Holy prophets were barbaric primitive recorders of false stories, would have enormous difficulty believing in the God of the OT, who raised up Kings and used them as a rod to chastise his rebellious son ‘Israel.’
It is as though the risen Christ was actually addressing those people when he said to Cleophas the husband of Mary the mother of Jesus, and Simeon, the half-brother to Jesus, on their walk to Emmaus; “How foolish you are, and how slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken!”

What's up mate, do have trouble accepting the fact that the heavenly father of Jesus, raised up kings and used them as rods in order to chastise his son, 'Israel,' and then later on punished those Kings, as with Nebuchadnezzar, who praised his own might, believing that he, who God used as an axe, was greater than he who used the axe?
And don't smack your head so much old mate, it makes your eyes roll, and could do even more damage.

He is not called Jehovah of armies for nothing sir. War became necessary when the first act of rebellion occurred. It was not Jehovah who initiated it, perhaps that helps sir. It was initiated by satan

So, your Satan is warring against, your God? Because of mankind's rebellion?
Well, it's apt when applied to vacant-eyed, robotic, scripture-spouting Christians.
Better than the hopeless blind atheist, whose can only look forward to an everlasting death.
This body that you see---it isn’t really me
It’s but the womb in which I’m being formed
For I am spirit—I am mind
And it’s the only place you’ll find
WHO I AM, until the day I’m finally born.
For I will not be free, until this body that you see
Has returned to the dust from whence it came
It’s then that I’ll be born from this womb in which I’m formed
To continue on in life’s eternal game. The Anointed.
