In what has become an annual tradition of prognostications, religious broadcaster Pat Robertson said Tuesday God has told him 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.
The broadcaster predicted in January 2004 that President Bush would easily win re-election. Bush won 51 percent of the vote that fall, beating Democratic Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts.
In 2005, Robertson predicted that Bush would have victory after victory in his second term. He said Social Security reform proposals would be approved and Bush would nominate conservative judges to federal courts.
Lawmakers confirmed Bush's 2005 nominations of John Roberts and Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court. But the president's Social Security initiative was stalled.
"I have a relatively good track record," he said. "Sometimes I miss."
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.
LMAO!
He always keeps His Word but it also says He can change his mind. There are other examples in Ezekiel and I & II Samuel.
Pat has done more for the Conservative cause than any of his critics. Some just don't like Christians to begin with.
Pray for W and Our Troops
Bingo. The man's a nutjob. Don't forget his anti-America we-brought-it-on-ourselves comments after 9/11.
He's either a psychotic loon or a shameless huckster exploiting the faith of others for his own financial gain.
(January 3, 2007)--Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson says God has told him there will be horrific terrorist attacks targeting US cities in the second half of this year. On Tuesday's broadcast of "The 700 Club," Robertson forecast attacks producing mass chaos and possibly killing millions of people.
BTTT
Wow, Robertson is taking nutjob whackiness to Kim Jong II levels....
Sam Kinison, doing the voice of God, to Pat Robertson at 3 am:
"Hey, Pat. I want you to go out and check your tire pressure."
(pause)
"Look, he's doing it! (snicker)"
LOL!!!!
I miss him. Rude, Crude, Offensive...and really funny.
What is the differance between Pat and Al Gore?
Is that a trick question?
Not for you but the MSM. They should treat all these guys as nuts not just the Right.
Thanks! I get it now and I agree with you!
Um. . . no. A very large percentage of Christianity pre-Reformation was either Orthodox or Coptic, with smaller numbers of Nestorians and other sects.
OK, do you know any of these prophets personally, and do you have any examples of their divine predictions coming true?
