Have you all forgotten Pat Robertson's prior Terrorist Threat ?
Television evangelist and Christian Coalition founder Pat Robertson suggested that a nuclear device should be used to wipe out the State Department.

"I read your book," Robertson said. "When you get through, you say, 'If I could just get a nuclear device inside Foggy Bottom, I think that's the answer,' and you say, 'We've got to blow that thing up.' I mean, is it as bad as you say?" Robertson said."

He wanted to kill thousands of Americans, and destroy US Gov property with a NUKE !

What he just said was MILD compared to this.

He is the terrorist face of the American Taliban.

3. Let's not forget his worst Holy War...
"want to come into churches and disrupt church services and throw blood all around and try to give people AIDS and spit in the face of ministers." Pat Robertson, 700 Club, 1/18/95 - People for the American Way Web site, http://www.pfaw.org/issues/right/rtvw.antigay.shtml

Many more out there...he is a HATEMONGER

I just emailed. I have been listening to Big Ed, and he didn't mention this pervious threat by Robertson.

6. Newsflash
"Newsflash: Venezuela's security agencies are on the alert today following the issuing of a fatwa by Virginia Beach-based Polyester Mystic Pat Robertson. Venezuelan agents tell us that they are taking Robertson's comminque seriously as it is commonly believed that his statements are a signal to his followers to launch an attack."

-as posted on another board

Also remember that Radical Cleric Robertson has previously issued terroristic fatwas against: abortion doctors, gays, feminists, People for the American Way, and the ACLU, and, when running for president, stated that he would nuke the Soviet Union.

9. Yeah, I saw that one live....
After 48 hours of the same continous carnage clips being endlessly replayed, I searched the TV for something, anything else. I found the 700 Club. Figured...OK, let's hear Pat's spin on this. I should have known when I saw Falwell that it wouldn't be good. And it wasn't:

FALWELL: I agree totally with you that the Lord has protected us so wonderfully these 225 years. And since 1812, this is the first time that we've been attacked on our soil and by far the worst results. And I fear, as Donald Rumsfeld, the Secretary of Defense, said yesterday, that this is only the beginning. And with biological warfare available to these monsters -- the Husseins, the Bin Ladens, the Arafats -- what we saw on Tuesday, as terrible as it is, could be miniscule if, in fact -- if, in fact -- God continues to lift the curtain and allow the enemies of America to give us probably what we deserve.

ROBERTSON: Jerry, that's my feeling. I think we've just seen the antechamber to terror. We haven't even begun to see what they can do to the major population.

FALWELL: The ACLU's got to take a lot of blame for this.

ROBERTSON: Well, yes.

FALWELL: And I know that I'll hear from them for this. But, throwing God out successfully with the help of the federal court system, throwing God out of the public square, out of the schools. The abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be mocked. And when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad. I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way -- all of them who have tried to secularize America -- I point the finger in their face and say: "You helped this happen."

ROBERTSON: Well, I totally concur, and the problem is we have adopted that agenda at the highest levels of our government. And so we're responsible as a free society for what the top people do. And, the top people, of course, is the court system.

FALWELL: Pat, did you notice yesterday the ACLU and all the Christ-haters, People For the American Way, NOW, etc. were totally disregarded by the Democrats and the Republicans in both houses of Congress as they went out on the steps and called out on to God in prayer and sang "God Bless America" and said "let the ACLU be hanged". In other words, when the nation is on its knees, the only normal and natural and spiritual thing to do is what we ought to be doing all the time -- calling upon God.

ROBERTSON: Amen.


First thing Jesus is going to do when He comes back is go to Virginia and rip these two assholes' TV sets up just like He did the Temple in Jerusalem when he ran the money changers out.
