"There are no innocent parties in a time of war," he continued. "Rather, one must battle a bellicose city until it is captured. All types of Christian morality weaken the spirit of our army and our nation and cost us the lives of our soldiers and citizens."

Actually the bit you quoted isn't from an American rabbi, it's from Rabbi Dov Lior of the Yesha Council of Rabbis in the occupied territories.

Fascists used to call Christianity a "decadent" religion as well.

Funny though, it is just such a pacifist "Christian" ethos that Israel demands of the Palestinians and Lebonese.
