Pat Robertson: ‘Was the co-pilot a Muslim? Why did he want to kill all those people?’

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2015/03/pat-robertson-was-the-co-pilot-a-muslim-why-did-he-want-to-kill-all-those-people/


Christian televangelist Pat Robertson suggested on Thursday that the co-pilot’s decision to crash Germanwings Flight 9525 could be explained if he was a Muslim.

French prosecutors concluded on Thursday that co-pilot Andreas Lubitz had locked the pilot out of the cockpit, and then deliberately crashed the plane into the French Alps, killing 150 people.

that he was some sort of extreme right wing nut like that guy who murdered all those kids in Norway.

Just speculation at this point.

Why did he kill all those innocent little children, Pat? Human beings, simply by being human, have many, many issues, not the least of which relate to RELIGION.

Silly Pat - if he was a Muslim, people wouldn't be talking about his mental health. Duh!

that's how propaganda works--not just by convincing people or by delaying response, but by building an atmosphere

after OKC and Breivik--after every explosion or incident the first thing they ask is "Muslims?"; every time they say "terrorism was ruled out" they just reinforce that it WILL be next time, and that the Muslims are identified with terror

It COULD be explained if the co-pilot was Muslim. It could also be explained if the co-pilot was Christian, Jewish or Hindi.

he is typical of an entire religion. Does the same inherent stereotyping of religions also apply to race, gender, ethnicity and sexual orientation, in your world, Pat? Of course it does. What a hater!
