Swords of Righteousness, please be righteous

I am writing and praying to The God in Heaven, that the name Swords of Righteousness is a true sense of the word righteous that means, in right standing with God. I am asking you as a believer in the ONE God who is the Creator of Heaven and Earth and who has the power to cast your souls into eternal damnation, to please release the hostages you are holding. The ONE true God does not ever condone killing of innocents. It is written, "The Lord shall be King over all the earth; in that day [when The Lord goes forth and fights against nations at the end of time, see v 3] shall there be ONE Lord, and HIS name ONE." Zechariah 14:9
It is also written, "thou shalt not kill" and God repeated Himself on His commandments in several places for emphasis. The Commandments teach civility and how to get along in the world. I write as a believer in God, who knows that God is JUST, and HE will punish those who shed the innocent blood. You cannot win your battle or any battle IF you fight against God. God wins HIS battles every time and HE makes the rules. There is a force of righteousness, and I am thinking that is what you intended to convey by naming your group, "Swords of Righteousness" but according to Holy Scripture, there is never justification for killing innocents. If you want to make a real difference in the world, then use your intellect and it is powerful*, to win people by persuasion of the righteousness of your faith and not by the sword. If your faith is true and it is based on the ONE God, it will stand the test of time and It will prevail for your cause. If however, you are evil, you will fail, because God Himself will set HIS mighty hand against you.

*There is no doubt in anyone's mind that Arabic people have brilliant minds and intellect. The world is better because of many Arabic inventions and customs, such as the famous hospitality to strangers. Where is that hospitality to the hostages? What would Abraham do? Did not Abraham set the example by inviting the strangers into his tent to sup with him, to discover that the "men" were angels, messengers from God Himself who came to tell Abraham that God intended to destroy Sodom and Gomorrha? Does not Scripture say to show hospitality to all, even strangers?
