 In the case of the Canaanites, exceptions are given where all is to be destroyed: Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizites, Hivites, Jesubites. The reason given is because of idolatry and their abominations, which has been the cause of the downfall of Israel itself for years.
+Here's what happened as Moses prepared the company of Israel to enter Canaan, seeing how they match up with the commandments.
+First, Moses sends spies into the land of Canaan, one from each tribe, to report on its condition (Numbers 13:1-3, 17-20).
+  * There is a conference upon their return, where the twelve spies give their report. (Numbers 13:26)
+  * During this time, Joshua and Caleb report that the Lord is able to win the battle. (Numbers 14:6-9)
+  * The congregation agrees to murder the two (Numbers 14:10)
+  * The Lord speaks to the Israelites, withdraws his promise to help them (Numbers 14:22-23)
+Later, some Israelites try to go to battle on their own. They are warned not to, and those who try to attack the Canaanites are slain (Numbers 14:42-43).
