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. We don’t need another $200 billion war to get rid of one 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.
Not sure how we could have possibly misinterpreted those statements. The first line, to me anyways, certainly sounds like Robertson was implying we assassinate him, which is against US law.
One broken law and a dead dictator, or hundreds of broken laws and dead americans
hmmm, i just don’t know.
I’m not saying I disagree with him, I just find it funny that he says he was misinterpreted.
We should have pulled the trigger on Osama when we had the chance as well….
Agreed, Ed. The main difference being Osama isn’t the head of any state. But, yeah, we totally should have teh bl0wn up Osama.
