You assume wrong. If you had spent 17 seconds clicking back to the original post, you would have found this excerpt: <"I read your book," Robertson said, according to a transcript of the interview posted on his Christian Broadcasting Network's website (www.cbn.com). "When you get through, you say, 'If I could just get a nuclear device inside Foggy Bottom, I think that's the answer'," he said. "I mean, you get through this, and you say, 'We've got to blow that thing up.' I mean, is it as bad as you say?" Robertson asked. Mowbray responded: "It is."> That's Pat Robertson, the famous militant religious fundamentalist. Here's a simple proposition: Anyone who speaks approvingly, of setting off nuclear bombs in Washington, to get rid of their political enemies, is committing treason. Anyone who provides them with a public forum, to disseminate these ideas, is aiding terrorists. This is incitement to violence, and it doesn't matter what the political or religious justification is. To reach any other conclusion, requires a very selective and creative re-definition of the terms: "treason", "aid to terrorists", and "incitement".
