Rev. Pat Robertson Calls For The Assassination of President Chavez


Once again, the Christian Coalition advocates breaking the Sixth Commandment. If only they were as rabid and diligent about the Sixth Commandment (thou shall not kill) as they were about the Seventh Commandment (thou shall not commit adultery). . .

WASHINGTON D.C. (Reuters) - Conservative U.S. evangelist Pat Robertson called for the assassination of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez yesterday, saying the leftist leader wanted to turn his country into "the launching pad for communist infiltration and Muslim extremism."

The founder of the Christian Coalition said during the Monday night television broadcast of his religious program, "The 700 Club," that Chavez, one the most vocal critics of President George W. Bush, was a "terrific danger" to the United States.

"We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability," Robertson said.

"You know, I don't know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it."
