Fatwa à americana

O Reverendo Pat Robertson, fundador da Christian Coalition of America, afirmou que era melhor que Hugo Chavez fosse assassinado:
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. 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. We don't need another $200 billion war to get rid of one, you know, strong-arm dictator. It's a whole lot easier to have some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with.”
Robertson é um importante elemento da direita cristã americana, gozando de audiências regulares com Bush, um conhecido líder religioso e anfitrião de um popular programa.
