Atheists love to make hay about verses like Psalm 137:9. I even saw a t-shirt about it.

It's just shallow opportunism. God doesn't enjoy innocent babies dying. But he did set up certain laws of morality and nature, and when you violate them, you and others suffer, even children.

The Babylonians who pushed the rules to the point of invoking God's vengeance were also responsible for the innocents who died in the acting out of that vengeance. That's why Babylon gets "double."
