On a less dramatic scale, why will God allow innocent peope to die, say, in Iraq, tomorrow? Or at a high school in Minnesota? Why arent these innocents saved by divine intervention? Did god create these people in his image just to cause them to come to harm?

Where in the Christian doctrine is there any claim that innocent people won't die? It seems like you're equating God to an omnipotent being whose sole purpose is to keep bad stuff from happening. If that's your understanding of the Christian God, you're way off.
