[Avodah] on not fighting

[Rich, Joel]

what  about the argument  that  these laws  only apply to  a halachically-run army in a halachically run state?
========================================================================
So they didn't apply in the time of the neviim  (as far as I can tell there seem to have been quite a few periods where neither the state nor the army sounded to be under halachic auspices)
