US State Department protests televangelist's nuclear threat
Thu Oct 9, 3:21 PM ET
WASHINGTON (AFP) - The US State Department has lodged a vehement
complaint with prominent conservative televangelist
Pat Robertson for comments suggesting that its Foggy Bottom
headquarters should be destroyed with nuclear weapons, officials
said.
Spokesman Richard Boucher called the remarks --
which Robertson made last week on his nationally
televised "700 Club" program -- "despicable" and a
senior department official said a protest had been
made "at the highest level."
"I lack sufficient capabilities to express my
disdain," Boucher told reporters when asked about
Robertson's comments. "I think the very idea,
though, is despicable."
The senior official said Robertson had been made
aware of Secretary of State Colin Powell (news - web
sites)'s extreme outrage at the tone and content of the remarks.
"That's not the way one expresses an opinion in Washington," the
official said, adding that Robertson's conduct had been
"outrageous."
Robertson, who has been a frequent critic of the State Department, made
the offending comments during an interview with a
like-minded critic of US diplomacy, columnist Joel Mowbray, who has
written a book entitled "Dangerous Diplomacy: How the
State Department Threatens American Security."
"I read your book," Robertson said, according to a transcript of the
interview posted on his Christian Broadcasting Network's
website (www.cbn.com).
"When you get through, you say, 'If I could just get a nuclear device
inside Foggy Bottom, I think that's the answer'," he said.
"I mean, you get through this, and you say, 'We've got to blow that
thing up.' I mean, is it as bad as you say?" Robertson asked.
Mowbray responded: "It is."
Mowbray's book accuses the State Department of endangering the security
of the United States by allegedly cavorting with
sponsors of terrorism, negligence or incompetence in the visa issuance
process and ignoring the travails of US citizens abroad.

There is a difference between free speech and threats. Bush and Ashcroft will leave him alone as he represents an
important part of their constituency.

Actually it was rammed through in the days following 9/11, to their credit
both Republicans and Democrats in the house are going to have a second look
at it and it looks like "Patriot II" could be in for a rough ride.

US State Department protests televangelist's nuclear threat
Thu Oct 9, 3:21 PM ET





WASHINGTON (AFP) - The US State Department has lodged a vehement
complaint with prominent conservative televangelist
Pat Robertson for comments suggesting that its Foggy Bottom
headquarters should be destroyed with nuclear weapons, officials
said.

Spokesman Richard Boucher called the remarks --
which Robertson made last week on his nationally

made "at the highest level."

"I lack sufficient capabilities to express my

"That's not the way one expresses an opinion in Washington," the

Robertson, who has been a frequent critic of the State Department,
made
the offending comments during an interview with a
like-minded critic of US diplomacy, columnist Joel Mowbray, who has
written a book entitled "Dangerous Diplomacy: How the
State Department Threatens American Security."

"I read your book," Robertson said, according to a transcript of the

I suggest the following four concrete steps:
1) Write Pat Robertson to repent his wickedness:
Advocating murder and domestic terrorism is beneath contempt, certainly
beneath him.
http://www.cbn.com/partners/bringiton/askpat.asp
On the page titled "Ask Pat a Question" they also invite you to call: "If
you would like to contact us by phone, please call our prayer counseling
center at (800) 759-0700."
The call is free, so feel free to pass the number around and to call back
often to check on Brother Pat's progress on this.
2) Contact the FCC. This is a clear abuse of the public trust and needs to
be investigated. Moreover, I doubt that FCC Chairman Michael Powell would
be sanguine about someone using the public airwaves to advocate bombing the
building his father works in.
Here is how you contact the FCC.
http://www.fcc.gov/contacts.html
To Contact the Commissioners via E-mail
Chairman Michael K. Powell:

Commissioner Kathleen Q. Abernathy:

Commissioner Michael J. Copps:

Commissioner Kevin J. Martin:

Commissioner Jonathan S. Adelstein:

I suggest the following four concrete steps:

1) Write Pat Robertson to repent his wickedness:

Advocating murder and domestic terrorism is beneath contempt, certainly
beneath him.

http://www.cbn.com/partners/bringiton/askpat.asp

On the page titled "Ask Pat a Question" they also invite you to call: "If
you would like to contact us by phone, please call our prayer counseling
center at (800) 759-0700."

The call is free, so feel free to pass the number around and to call back
often to check on Brother Pat's progress on this.

2) Contact the FCC. This is a clear abuse of the public trust and needs to
be investigated. Moreover, I doubt that FCC Chairman Michael Powell would
be sanguine about someone using the public airwaves to advocate bombing

the

building his father works in.

Here is how you contact the FCC.

a grass roots non-government solution--public shame. He

But the BBB monitors and investigates complaints about this sort of thing.
Charitable organizations which advocate terrorist violence need to be
reported. As a consumer you can file a complaint with the BBB by visiting
their web site:
http://www.give.org/inquire/complaint.asp
File a complaint about a charity "To file a complaint on a national
charity, please fill out the form below. Be as specific as possible about
the problem and the action you would like to see taken."
"The Alliance will forward your complaint to the organization and request
that appropriate action be taken. Concerns about charity managment, or
other issues will be reviewed and when appropriate included in our written
reports on national organizations."
You will need the address of the charity
The 700 Club
CBN Center
Virginia Beach, VA 23463
Also remember the Chairman of the FCC is Michael Powell. Since his dad
works at the State Department he might have more than a passing interest in
this incitement.

On the page titled "Ask Pat a Question" they also invite you to call: "If
you would like to contact us by phone, please call our prayer counseling
center at (800) 759-0700."

The call is free, so feel free to pass the number around and to call back
often to check on Brother Pat's progress on this.

The number referred me a Virginia number,757-759-0700.. After about a 5
minute wait I got through and told the lady that I wanted to pray for Pat since
the devil had taken hold of his soul. I explained the reason why and she
claimed to be unaware of the segment. When I read from the transcript she said
that there is often a certain amount of hyperbole on the show and she was sure
that Pat had laughed after the comment.
I suggested that laughter was inappropriate and might encourage a terrorist
and she assured me that she would pray for me tonight. I told her to pray for
Pat and she said "I pray for everyone, thank you" and hung up.
Pat used the money that his followers gave him to start CBN which he later
sold at a huge profit to Fox. They then sold it to ABC (you know, left wing
Disney).
A few years ago Pat tried to go into a credit card deal with the Bank of
Scotland . I am sure that would have followed the prohibition against usury.
The largest depositor in the bank, the Church of Scotland, threatened to remove
their funds if it went through and the deal fell apart.



2) Contact the FCC. This is a clear abuse of the public trust and needs to
be investigated. Moreover, I doubt that FCC Chairman Michael Powell would
be sanguine about someone using the public airwaves to advocate bombing the
building his father works in.

Here is how you contact the FCC.

http://www.fcc.gov/contacts.html

To Contact the Commissioners via E-mail

Chairman Michael K. Powell:


Commissioner Kathleen Q. Abernathy:

Commissioner Michael J. Copps:

Commissioner Kevin J. Martin:

Commissioner Jonathan S. Adelstein:


They also have a toll free number:
1-888-225-5322 (1-888-CALL FCC) Voice: toll-free

3) Contact your congressional representative to let them know this is
outrageous and must be confronted immediately, BEFORE someone acts on the
suggestion. Do we really want to wait until someone blows up the State
Department to find out they owned copies of Mowbray's and Robertson's
work... underlined and complete with notations in the margins? If we
learned anything from 9.11 it is the importance of PREVENTING such attacks.

To find your congressional representative, CBN offers the following
service:

http://www.cbn.com/700club/features/contact_congress.asp

There is a link to contact your Senators by e-mail. Here is the Senate
Switchboard -- 202-225-6827

There is also a link to contact your Representative by e-mail. Here is the
House Switchboard -- 202-224-3121


4) Tell your friends. We must make it clear that such hateful speech is not
tolerated by decent Americans.

Anyone who advocates domestic terrorism is sick and deserves to be punished
to the fullest extent of the law. This is an opportunity for citizens to
come out forcefully against those who think domestic terrorism is a joke.

On the page titled "Ask Pat a Question" they also invite you to call: "If
you would like to contact us by phone, please call our prayer counseling
center at (800) 759-0700."

The call is free, so feel free to pass the number around and to call back
often to check on Brother Pat's progress on this.


The number referred me a Virginia number,757-759-0700.. After about a 5
minute wait I got through and told the lady that I wanted to pray for Pat since
the devil had taken hold of his soul. I explained the reason why and she
claimed to be unaware of the segment. When I read from the transcript she said
that there is often a certain amount of hyperbole on the show and she was sure
that Pat had laughed after the comment.
I suggested that laughter was inappropriate and might encourage a terrorist
and she assured me that she would pray for me tonight. I told her to pray for
Pat and she said "I pray for everyone, thank you" and hung up.
Pat used the money that his followers gave him to start CBN which he later
sold at a huge profit to Fox. They then sold it to ABC (you know, left wing
Disney).
A few years ago Pat tried to go into a credit card deal with the Bank of
Scotland . I am sure that would have followed the prohibition against usury.
The largest depositor in the bank, the Church of Scotland, threatened to remove
their funds if it went through and the deal fell apart.

You may be interested to know that the 700 Club receives charitable
donations. CBN, its parent company, is a nonprofit corporation.
Both of these activities are monitored by the Better Business Bureau.
Charitable organizations which advocate terrorist violence need to be
reported. As a consumer you can file a complaint with the BBB by
visiting their web site:
http://www.give.org/inquire/complaint.asp
File a complaint about a charity "To file a complaint on a national
charity, please fill out the form below. Be as specific as possible
about the problem and the action you would like to see taken."
"The Alliance will forward your complaint to the organization and
request that appropriate action be taken. Concerns about charity
managment, or other issues will be reviewed and when appropriate
included in our written reports on national organizations."
You will need the address of the charity
CBN Center

Since CBN is part of the Evangelical Council for Financial
Accountability they have to abide by their guidelines which include:
GOOD CHARITIES WILLINGLY ANSWER TOUGH QUESTIONS. Before you give to
any charity, ask these questions. Nonprofit organizations should be
willing to supply the answers.
Does the organization have a clear and strong commitment to a certain
project area?
Does an independent board accept responsibility for the activities of
the organization and oversee its operations?
Are the financial records audited annually by certified public
accountants?
Does the charity practice full disclosure? Is a copy of the audited
financial statements provided to anyone who makes a request?
Is information provided to donors about any program that the donors
have supported?
How does the organization avoid conflicts of interest?
What are the guidelines and standards for fund-raising?
Is there a review procedure to assure compliance with fund-raising
standards and guidelines?
Contact CBN to request this information.

when will President cretin order
his arrest and permanent incarceration in an undisclosed

if your a poor latino or black that it applies. White christian
REPUBLICAN terrorists can threaten the United States
with nuclear bombs and its ok................

Twinky, a threat implies "intent" on the part of the person making it.
If I tell you that you deserve to be killed, or should be killed, that
is not a threat. If, on the other hand, I tell you I intend to kill
you, then it's a threat.
But I believe your crowd knows that and you're just another liberal
twit who hates Christians and Catholics in general and Pat Robertson
even more.
But he is right about the State Department. It's infested with
socialists and internationalists who pretty much ignore republican
presidents and do whatever the hell they want to. I even question the
allegiance of many of these entrenched bureaucrats who play footsy
with our enemies, and not a few European countries, notably France and
Belgium, might now be said to fit that category.

Post a message here saying that you think the president deserves to be killed and let us

If Robertson represents Christianity (he does not) then it deserves scorn.

Well "Marie" put down your Jesus Christ glow in the dark ***** long enough to ponder the
following..................
"I have examined all the known superstitions of the world, and I do not find in our
particular superstition of Christianity one redeeming feature. They are all alike founded
on fables and mythology. Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the
introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned. What has
been the effect of this coercion? To make one half the world fools and the other
half hypocrites; to support roguery and error all over the earth." Thomas Jefferson
"The religious factions will go on imposing their will on others,unless the decent people
connected to them recognize that religion has no place in public policy. They must learn
to make their views known without trying to make their views the only alternatives"
Barry Goldwater

Am I supposed to be impressed with this twaddle? Infinitely more
people have been killed at the hands of Communist and Socialist
governments, and wars they started, than were ever killed in all the
religious wars since the dawn of time. And most of it happened in the
20th century, Twinky.
As for Barry Goldwater, he's now a liberal hero and got senile not too
long after the 1964 election. Take him as one of your own. Certainly
I'm not in awe of the fool.
