Pat Robertson

Robertson’s other statements and actions also betray him. He famously lied about his military service. He was a vocal supporter of Liberian dictator Charles Taylor, who was charged with war crimes. While supporting Taylor, Robertson neglected to mention that he had an $8 million dollar investment in a Liberian gold mine under Taylor’s control. Robertson has previously claimed to be against gambling, yet it was discovered a few years ago that he not only owned a race horse, the horse was named for him — “Mr. Pat.” Robertson claimed that the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks were God’s punishment on homosexuals, liberals and feminists. And in one of his most noteworthy faruds, Robertson claimed that funds used to support his Operation Blessing charity were being used to provide disaster relief in Africa. In fact, Operation Blessing’s planes were being used to haul equipment for African Development Corporation, Robertson’s diamond mining concern.
Več na First republic blogu Prej včasih me je čudilo kako so takšni ljudje, ki se odprto ponašajo z svojo vernostjo lahko tako zelo pokvarjeni. Zdaj se o tem ne čudim več. Čudim se samo, da jih kdo jemlje resno.
