I was simply pointing out some factual errors in your post. The order Moses issued against the women of Peor appears to be a command to do the things you have trouble remembering.

"Nor do I remember any Jews, issuing orders for the death of people who write books they disagree with, cutting off the hands of people they decide stole stuff, or stoning women who are raped, or who commit adultery."

"And Moses said to them: "Have you kept all the women alive? Look, these women caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to trespass against the LORD in the incident of PEOR, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD. Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man intimately. But keep alive for yourselves all the young girls who have not known a man intimately."
