Robertson: God is punishing Sharon

Advertisements [?]

CBSNEWS

(CBS/AP) Christian broadcaster Pat Robertson suggested Thursday that Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's stroke was divine punishment for "dividing God's land."

"God considers this land to be his," Robertson said on his TV program "The 700 Club." "You read the Bible and he says 'This is my land,' and for any prime minister of Israel who decides he is going to carve it up and give it away, God says, 'No, this is mine."'

"I would say woe to any prime minister of Israel who takes a similar course to appease the EU, the United Nations, or the United States of America."
