Christian prayer for violence against our enemy in US war with Iran

Hegseth, US Defense Secretary, frequently invokes his evangelical faith as head of the armed forces, depicting a Christian nation trying to vanquish its foes with military might. He read a prayer given by a military chaplain to the troops:

“Let every round find its mark against the enemies of righteousness and our great nation,” Hegseth prayed during the livestreamed service. “Give them wisdom in every decision, endurance for the trial ahead, unbreakable unity, and overwhelming violence of action against those who deserve no mercy.”

The ethos of the Hebrew Old Testament or teaching of Jesus Christ?

Jesus say have mercy, and this war doesn't follow the just war theory. America believe in hegemony, they have a colonial mindset. I find it hard to believe that itself is a Christian notion.
