Robertson claims he was misinterpreted

Here is what he said
"If he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war. … We have the ability to take him out and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability."

This is quoted in the article in which he is reported that he claims he was misintrepreted. How was he "misinterpreted? "
"I didn't say assassination," Robertson continued. "I said our special forces should take him out. Take him out can be a number of things including kidnapping. There are a number of ways to take out a dictator from power besides killing him. I was misinterpreted."
Looks like his attempted Fatwa didn't go over too well, so now he is trying to ly his way out of it.

Pat Robertson is a prime example of the manner in which the cult of "Fundamentalism" in the U.S. is NOT a part of Christianity. Unless, of course, you consider the Spanish Inquisition and such aberrations to be the best examples of Christianity.
