Robertson also was providing financial support to the minority christian population in Nigeria. Christians control that country, but constitute about a quarter of it's population. The muslims are horribly oppressed both politically and economically.
So, it IS also a religious problem.
And the ONLY difference between our christian nuts and the muslims christian nuts is position.
Falwell has it, Bin Laden doesn't.
Do you really think Osama would be directing planes into buildings if he was a religious leader in the most powerful, influential country in the world?
Do you really think Falwell wouldn't be directing planes into buildings if he lived in a third world country where the most powerful nation in the world (and a muslim one) had military bases in close proximity to Jerry's holy land? And was pushing their muslim culture and values on Jerry's people?
It's all a matter of position. Jerry has it, Osama doesn't.
