TV's Pat Robertson Predicts Terror Attacks In 2007

(AP) VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. In what has become an annual tradition of prognostications, religious broadcaster Pat Robertson predicted Tuesday that a terrorist attack on the United States would result in "mass killing" late in 2007.

"I'm not necessarily saying it's going to be nuclear," he said during his news-and-talk television show "The 700 Club" on the Christian Broadcasting Network. "The Lord didn't say nuclear. But I do believe it will be something like that."

Robertson said God told him during a recent prayer retreat that major cities and possibly millions of people will be affected by the attack, which should take place sometime after September.

Robertson said God also told him that the U.S. only feigns friendship with Israel and that U.S. policies are pushing Israel toward "national suicide."

Robertson suggested in January 2006 that God punished then-Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon with a stroke for ceding Israeli-controlled land to the Palestinians.

2. Since he's on the far right he probably knows
who will do the attacking.

Does that mean that "the big guy" and Pat were having a chat?

:rofl::rofl: My first BIG laugh for 2007. :rofl::rofl:

6. That's what he is hoping for
He calls himself "predicting", but in reality he's just hoping for chaos.

8. LOL - Robertson is starting to crack
Robertson can "predict" a major terrorist attack every year until it happens, then say "See! I told ya so!" without mentioning the 12 years of predictions that were completely false. Even a broken watch is right twice a day.

18.  "I have a relatively good track record," he said. "Sometimes I miss."
snip...
In May, Robertson said God told him that storms and possibly a tsunami were to crash into America's coastline in 2006. Even though the U.S. was not hit with a tsunami, Robertson on Tuesday cited last spring's heavy rains and flooding in New England as partly fulfilling the prediction.


:eyes:

:rofl:

32. LOL
Robertson can make almost any world event fit into his B.S. prognostications, and his avid followers eat it up (and send him more money).

13. I too have predicted that there will be another terrorist attack and soon
But, I think it will be from the Far Right and not from Al Qaeda or any other affiliated group.

17. yeah well in his logic Barbara Olson died on AA77 on 911 cause she was evil
Edited on Tue Jan-02-07 07:24 PM by melissinha
She was a Republican supposed Federalist Whore-mongerer who could have been struck down for her evil ways but wait, she's a Republican so God wouldn't strike her down. Only hte mighty Pat can decree when God is mad at someone....

Ok what I said was really mean but his insane logic can be applied there.... it kind of makes me sick thinking that I made that connection.

That man belongs in an Insane Asylum and his "ministry" and his conflict goldmine profits should eb entirely devoted to true ministry....

20. Why do the most reprehensible
people in this country try to tell us that they talk to God. We know darn well that, God, would never talk to bush, farwell or robertson. He has too much respect for the human race.

that voted out the Intelligent Design crowd from the school board?

The same one supporting assassination of foreign leaders?

These death cults need to go.

26. Well hell Godboy that must mean the troops will be out of Eye-Rack and Bu$h won't be
in office by that time. According to the Gospel of Bu$hit we're fightin' them over there so we don't have to fight 'em here AND Bu$h/Cheney are the only reasons we haven't been hit in five years.

:sarcasm:

or if Bu$hCo were to betray Israel wouldn't that put "someone" in the running for Anti-Christ?

28. I consider Robertson a TV terrorist. He robs people in the name of God. A heinous sin.
He's a politician in a preachers cloak. He should pay double taxes.

But in my last conversation with God, He told me He was pretty disappointed in you.
However...He also told me He was a little jealous because you were a much better servant for Lucifer than you ever were for him.
