Who Would Jesus Assassinate?

While I commend Pat Robertson for taking a stand against Bush's illegal war in Iraq and the ungodly sum of money it has cost us, I question whether Jesus wants us to assasinate South American heads of state.

Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson suggested on-air that American
operatives assassinate Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez to stop his
country from becoming "a launching pad for communist infiltration and
Muslim extremism."

"We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that
we exercise that ability," Robertson said Monday on the Christian
Broadcast Network's "The 700 Club."

"We don't need another $200 billion war to get rid of one, you know,
strong-arm dictator," he continued. "It's a whole lot easier to have
some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with."

So much for that love your enemy as yourself thing. And that turn the other cheek thing. I'll never understand why we kill in the name of Jesus or Mohammed or any one else who taught peace and love.

Update: Norbizness has a nice top ten list of specs of brilliance from Pat Robertson.
