VIRGINIA BEACH, Virginia (AP) -- Evangelical broadcaster Pat Robertson said Tuesday that God has told him that a terrorist attack on the United States would cause a "mass killing" late in 2007.

"I'm not necessarily saying it's going to be nuclear," he said during his news-and-talk television show "The 700 Club" on the Christian Broadcasting Network.

"The Lord didn't say nuclear. But I do believe it will be something like that."

Robertson said God told him about the impending tragedy during a recent prayer retreat.

God also said, he claims, that major cities and possibly millions of people will be affected by the attack, which should take place sometime after September.

Robertson suggested in January 2006 that God punished then-Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon with a stroke for ceding Israeli-controlled land to the Palestinians.

The broadcaster predicted in January 2004 that President Bush would easily win re-election.

Bush won 51 percent of the vote that fall, beating Democratic Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts.

In 2005, Robertson predicted that Bush would have victory after victory in his second term. He said Social Security reform proposals would be approved and Bush would nominate conservative judges to federal courts.

Lawmakers confirmed Bush's 2005 nominations of John Roberts and Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court. But the president's Social Security initiative was stalled.

"I have a relatively good track record," he said. "Sometimes I miss."

In May, Robertson said God told him that storms and possibly a tsunami were to crash into America's coastline in 2006.

Even though the U.S. was not hit with a tsunami, Robertson on Tuesday cited last spring's heavy rains and flooding in New England as partly fulfilling the prediction.

Unfotunately he is probably right, especially with our new legislature

It's just a ploy to scare non-believers into believing. Not to say something won't happen, but the Bible talks a lot about False Prophets - seems to me this guy just might be one of 'em.

Pat Robertson also predicted we'd all be raptured away into the clouds just before the entire world shut down at midnight on January 1, 2000.

Yeah, that went over well.

EDIT: Well, I probably wouldn't be. I didn't pay him my gullibility jizya.

It really doesn't take God to tell you that this country will probably be attacked by the end of the year resulting in mass killings.

The signs are all there and I'm not talking about voice from above or burning bushes, but certainly there has been increased smaller level plots in the UK already discovered and my guess is that the the varsity team of terrorist is here in the US doing their best to put together something BIG.
