The Reverend Pat Robertson says Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's massive stroke could be God's punishment for giving up Israeli territory.Hey Pat, last time I checked ALL the land belongs to God, not just Israel.
The founder of the Christian Broadcasting Network told viewers of "The 700 Club" that Sharon was "dividing God's land," even though the Bible says doing so invites "God's enmity."
Robertson added, "I would say woe to any prime minister of Israel who takes a similar course."
He noted that former Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated.
Robertson said God's message is, "This land belongs to me. You'd better leave it alone."
I guess God decided to go for a twofer with Sharon - a small stroke two weeks ago, followed by aggressive treatment which may have resulted in the big stroke yesterday. Oh, and God had Sharon eat until he was obese just to make sure he was in position to be smited...just in case.
What an idiot. Frankly, Robertson's statements aren't all that different from the statements of the nutball Iranian president who is praying for Sharon's death:
"Hopefully, the news that the criminal of Sabra and Chatilla has joined his ancestors is final," President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying by the semiofficial Iranian Students News Agency.
I'm not sure that's the kind of company Robertson should be keeping.
