The verse where it states that "ومن اجل ذلك كتبنا على بني اسراءيل" is in reference to the Jewish scriptures saying that their scriptures only made this rule for if they killed Israeli children, but the Qur'an generalizes this for all of humanity. Understand, UNDERSTAND!

5:33 tells us to kill anyone who wages war against us. What's wrong with that? Isn't war all about killing? No, for other people, it's all about killing, but if a Muslim says the same, they are wrong. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT??? SHOULD WE HUG IT OUT IN A WAR WHILE THEY SHOOT AND KILL US??? JUST HOW MUCH MORE STUPID CAN YOU GET??

Idolaters worshipped Al-Lat and Al-Uzzah at that time and they would kill anyone who defied their idols. Allah has ordered us to kill such idolaters, you just misinterpreted it again.
