It's right there in the Bible. In Genesis Jehovah unambiguously sets up the rules of racial purity for his chosen people and promises them the lands of seven other tribes. What does that mean for the tribes? Only enslavement or annihilation since there are aformentioned racial conduct rules which do not allow assimilation. Racial purity + racial superiority (chosen people are allowed and encouraged to con and smite the 'untermensch') + aggressive expansionalism (claiming the lands of seven tribes). Sounds familiar.
Sugar-coating the the Bible (or any other scripture) with any kind apologetics is pointless if you try to convince someone who have read the text with an ideologically-neutral reasonable attitude.
