3. I suspect that Venzuelan Navy Seals are on their way to
Robertson's "church." You know that's what would happen if the foot were in the other mouth.

6. According to NPR, Chavez took it as a backhanded compliment
though he said he'd never heard of Pat Robertson.

7. they're investigating legal options; BTW, wrt. "fatwas"
A fatwa is a religious edict. It can be used to call for someone's death or whatever, but it's really something more analogous to a papal bull, modulo the decentralized Muslim clergy.
