Jerusalem (jnewwire.com) - Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) Director Pat Robertson said Wednesday the world is convulsed in a religious struggle in which the central issue is whether Islam's Allah or the LORD God of the Jews and Christians is supreme
Speaking in Herzliya, Robertson appealed to the people of Israel not to commit national suicide by allowing the creation of a Palestinian state, and not to surrender places sacred to Christians and Jews to the followers of Allah
Robertson, a United States presidential candidate in 1988, earlier called for the elimination of PLO chief Yasser Arafat
Robertson was an invited guest speaker at the Herzliya Conference - a four-year-old, three-day event sponsored by The Institute for Policy and Strategy that has developed a reputation as the venue Israel's top leaders use to make landmark policy speeches.
After recounting the miracle of Israel's rebirth, and reading from one of the many biblical passages foretelling that event, Robertson said that of the world's two billion adherents to Christianity today, 600 million were Bible-believers and "ardent supporters" of Israel.
He believed the people of Israel should realize that these friends, who in 20 years would number one billion, worshipped the same God as the Jews.
"The God who spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai is our God," Robertson declared.
Referring to the global war on terror, and the resurgence of international anti-Semitism, the American said the entire world was "being engulfed by a religious struggle."
Central to this battle was not money or territory, but question of who was God.
"[T]he struggle is whether Hubal, the Moon god of Mecca, known as Allah, is supreme, or whether the Judeo-Christian Jehovah, God of the Bible, is Supreme."
