I did not say an NGO. I said a large international organization, the semantics of a NGO is another discussion.
Pat Robertson is the leader of at least one large international organization. It happens to be a religous organization but he has members world wide (broadcasts in 200 countries in 70 languages), speaks in many countries, transacts business etc... Here are the first two paragraphs from PatRobertson.com, please note the number of times the word "International" appears in the text. "M. G. "Pat" Robertson has achieved national and international recognition as a religious broadcaster, philanthropist, educator, religious leader, businessman, and author. He is the founder and chairman of The Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) Inc., and founder of International Family Entertainment Inc., Regent University, Operation Blessing International Relief and Development Corporation, American Center for Law and Justice, The Flying Hospital, Inc. and several other organizations and broadcast entities. Founded in 1960, CBN was the first Christian television network established in the United States. Today CBN is one of the world's largest television ministries and produces programming seen in 200 nations and heard in 70 languages including Russian, Arabic, Spanish, French and Chinese. CBN's flagship program, The 700 Club, which Mr. Robertson hosts, is one of the longest running religious television shows and reaches an average of one million American viewers daily. " Robert Munn >>> Also, I would take issue with your characterization of Robertson as the leader of an international organization. He is the head of a private religious group, not an NGO, or any kind of transnational entity, like Interpol. As for the heads of other such groups calling for Bush's assassination- they do it all the time, and you can bet the CIA, NSA, the Secret Service, and every other Federal agency with overseas operations is keeping tabs on those people. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:170846 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
