It is not barbaric, animals dont have souls, they are not people.

War is not bad as long as its not for fun. Killing for the sake of war is not evil. It sounds like you think soldiers are murdurers. The commandment thou shalt not kill, does not say thou shalt not war against other nations to protect themselves. God promised the land of caanan to the israelites not because they deserved it. It was more of a punishment to the wicked Caananites anyways.

So they destroyed jericho because the residents were wicked not just to kill. And they were not innocent.
