As widely reported across the internet a few years ago what do you think about Pat Robertson and the Zaire Dictator Mobutu Seko(a murderous thug) diamond connection?
Pat Robertson began begging for donations for 3 new planes to benefit Operation Blessing in 1994 for humanitarian assistance in Africa. Specifically to remove refugees and provide medical assistance.
At the same time Pat began a company called "African Development Company". The development was basically for mining-specifically diamonds, timber, etc. For two years these Operation Blessing planes were used almost exclusivley for Pat's company, NOT for Operation Blessing!! It made Pat millions. No refugees were removed.
A criminal investigation followed in Virgina, and ended with slap on the wrists. Dictator Mobutu, who's responsible for killing thousands, finally died, after making a fortune with Robertson.
My question....WHY WOULD PAT DO BUSINESS WITH A DICTATOR LIKE MOBUTU?
