--- u want my honest answer ? Then , unfortunately ans is yes . I wrote about it earlier.
some Christians i met online stunned me by announcing that they are gays , they don't believe gay people should be punished , some see no problem enjoy close intimacy before marriage , love child is not a problem to them etc , etc.
So , i got this impression from their posts that they believe Jesus (p) taught Christians not to hate sinners & thus they are allowed to commit sin , but no one should condemn them .....no question of punishing.
---- except Iraqi & Afghan people ? If Jesus (p) taught Christians to turn other cheek , why a Christian majority country dropped bombs on Civilians in Iraq & Afghanistan ?
I asked this question in another forum......1 American live = how many Muslim lives ?
How many died in 9/11 tragedy ? Ameicans have killed many more Muslims while taking revenge. Still , time has not come yet to stop war ? How more Muslims must be killed to pay the price of that tragedy ?
---ok , let's guess that most of them were criminals . Only 5 thousand innocent people including 1000 babies died.
Now , we can go back to the post title ....Whose life is more precious to God ? The 10,000 babies who may or may not born in the year 2008 in USA or those babies who are now living in this earth right now.
To make sure that 10 thousands US babies can born safely on Dec 2008 , can we kill 1000 Iraqi babies today ?

an interesting preaching :
killing terrorists is an ‘act of love for our nation’
By Laura Followell

According to retired U.S. Marine Col. J. Tyler Ryberg, the Bible contains messages about war and capital punishment. God is a powerful soldier.
Ryberg, who served in the Marines for more than 27 years, gave a sermon Sunday morning at Good Shepherd Baptist Church’s Armed Forces Day, where some of the 150 people in attendance often erupted with an “Amen!”
The colonel asked churchgoers if the global war on terrorism was a “just war” and a “God-ordained war,” which he later affirmed.
“We’re killing Islamic jihadists, bloodthirsty killers,” he said. “Peace is not an option. You don’t negotiate with bloodthirsty, jihadist killers.”
.....“The only day we will have perfect peace is the day Jesus Christ comes back. … Our Lord’s coming back, folks,” he said.

This line :“The only day we will have perfect peace is the day Jesus Christ comes back. …" reminds me of another comment . A Christian told me that ( not the exact words ) he feels very sorry for Palestine people but he believes nothing can be done for them as it's a prophecy that they have to die before coming of the Jesus (p).
So , it seems to me that many Christians believe it does not matter if Zionists are killing innocent people in the holy land ' cause Muslims need to die today so that Jesus (p) comes tomorrow.
