Pat Robertson: Haiti ’cursed’ by pact with devil
Evangelical broadcaster Pat Robertson says Haiti has been “cursed” because of what he called a “pact with the devil” in its history.
His spokesman said the Wednesday comments were based on Voodoo rituals carried out before a slave rebellion against French
colonists in 1791.
Spokesman Chris Roslan says Robertson never stated that
Tuesday’s earthquake was God’s wrath. He says Robertson’s Operation Blessing group is sending millions of dollars in medication and relief workers to the country.
Robertson has angered opponents many times before with comments on current events and criticism of other faiths.
He once said American agents should assassinate Venezuelan
President Hugo Chavez and said Israeli Prime Minister Ariel
Sharon’s stroke was divine retribution for withdrawing from the
Gaza Strip.
