Gods angel : you have woke up, bless your little heart. Just start reading your Bible from Genesis to Revelation. In which the whole is called a book . Do yourselves a favour, Use a good NIV translation study Bible. John MacArthur I think has a NIV translation printed out. Or online if you can. It should not take you more than a couple of weeks to just read it. After that start over again and study it. You in for a BIG surprise. God has got your attention. LOL you will get your answer.
They were not innocent at all. They were doing many abominable things like sacrificing their children to demons, practising witchcraft and all manners of sin. God used Israel as judgment on them for not repenting of their wickedness.

What of Israel then, how come he didn’t wipe them out.
Remember?
5“Thus says the Lord God: ‘This isJerusalem; I have set her in the midst of the nations and the countries all around her. 6She has rebelled against My judgments by doing wickedness more than the nations, and against My statutes more than the countries that are all around her; for they have refused My judgments, and they have not walked in My statutes.’ 7Therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Because you have [a]multiplied disobediencemore than the nations that are all around you, have not walked in My statutes nor kept My judgments, https://biblehub.com/nkjv/ezekiel/5.htm#footnotesnor even done according to the judgments of the nations that areall around you’— 8therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Indeed I, even I, am against you and will execute judgments in your midst in the sight of the nations. 9And I will do among you what I have never done, and the like of which I will never do again, because of all your abominations. (Ezekiel 5:5-9).
That is why you have to read “The Book” not pieces. To get the story for your.self. Israel was more wicked than all the other nations!
