The Christian broadcaster is quoted as saying prime minister Ariel’s massive stroke was divine punishment for his decision to uproot Israel from the Gaza Strip. Robertson leads a group which plans to build a Christian Heritage Center in the northern Galilee region. Israel was to put up the land and infrastructure for the project which has huge tourist potential.
In unrelated news, Israel demands an additional 50 million in "Loans" from US.
