Kill old men, young men and maidens, women and children in the Bible:
In Ezekiel 9:5-10:
The LORD called to a man and said to him, "Go throughout Jerusalem and put a mark on the foreheads of those who grieve and lament over all the detestable things that are done in it."
Then, the LORD said to other men (the guards of the city with deadly weapons in their hands):
"Follow him through the city
And kill, without showing pity
And kill, without showing any compassion
Who have to be killed?
1) Slaughter old men,
2) Slaughter young men and
3) Slaughter maidens,
4) Slaughter women and
5) Slaughter children,
But do not touch anyone who has the mark.
Begin at my sanctuary."
So they began with the elders who were in front of the temple.
Why all of that? Because:
1) The sin of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great;
2) The land is full of bloodshed.
3) And the city is full of injustice.
4) They say, 'The LORD has forsaken the land;
5) They say the LORD does not see.

Ezekiel 9:5-10 in New International Version (NIV)
3 Now the glory of the God of Israel went up from above the cherubim, where it had been, and moved to the threshold of the temple. Then the LORD called to the man clothed in linen who had the writing kit at his side 4 and said to him, "Go throughout the city of Jerusalem and put a mark on the foreheads of those who grieve and lament over all the detestable things that are done in it."
5 As I listened, he said to the others, "Follow him through the city and kill, without showing pity or compassion. 6 Slaughter old men, young men and maidens, women and children, but do not touch anyone who has the mark. Begin at my sanctuary." So they began with the elders who were in front of the temple.
7 Then he said to them, "Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go!" So they went out and began killing throughout the city. 8 While they were killing and I was left alone, I fell facedown, crying out, "Ah, Sovereign LORD! Are you going to destroy the entire remnant of Israel in this outpouring of your wrath on Jerusalem?"
9 He answered me, "The sin of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great; the land is full of bloodshed and the city is full of injustice. They say, 'The LORD has forsaken the land; the LORD does not see.' 10 So I will not look on them with pity or spare them, but I will bring down on their own heads what they have done."

Kill old men, young men and maidens, women and children in the Noble Quran:
There is no verse(s) in the Quran says: kill old men, young men and maidens, women and children.
-------------------------------
What if the Quran was the Book which commands to kill anyone who 1) is Uncircumcised, 2) curses his parents, 3) is a gay, 4) is Zoosexual 5) works in the Sabbath! 6) tries to turn you away from the LORD, 7) lives in that town, 8) is a false prophet, 9) is a Midianites, 10) is the Owner of the ox, 11) is adulterer, 12) eats leavened bread, 13) eats the meat of the sacrifice of peace, 14) eats blood, 15) approaches the holy gifts, 16) does not eat the Passover, 17) touches a dead body, 18) sins defiantly and/or blasphemes the name of the LORD and 19) are old men, young men and maidens, women and children .
What the Western Media would have said? What names they have given the Quran in such case?

Back to the main issue of my series of articles; this is my question to you smart readers: "Is the Quran quoted from the Bible?"
