I don't know just looking for justification.
Do not use the bible to justify your answer
I see you almost have a almost dozen instances there where God has been credited in the death of a 'baby.'
So you question why did God take the life of those babies? To shape the course of Human history so that His plan of salvation would be allowed to play out according to His good will.
Now, Quid pro quoe Clarice Quid pro quoe. Why does 'Modern man' kill babies in the billions? http://www.numberofabortions.com/
IDK I would say I was looking for a justification, but rarely is there any to be had.. Lest you count simply not wanting to be a parent as a justification.
oh, and in your response please do not quote modern 'morality' or an individual's right to choose, as that individual is 'choosing' life or death of another individual, which contradicts modern moral standards. Which mean neither excuse is valid as they cancel each other and themselves out.
