Phil Robertson offers to go kill ISIS himself [View all]

Phil Robertson's Plan For Combating ISIS: 'Convert Them Or Kill Them'

"Duck Dynasty" patriarch Phil Robertson put forward a strategy Tuesday for combating militants with the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria: "convert them or kill them."

Robertson was asked to opine on how to combat radical Islam and anti-Christian behavior on Fox News' "Hannity," after ISIS militants released a video showing the beheading of a second American journalist.

"In this case, you either have to convert them -- which I think would be next to impossible," Robertson said. "I'm not giving up on them, but I'm just saying either convert them or kill them. One or the other."

....

"I'd much rather have a bible study with all of them and show them the error of their ways and point them to Jesus Christ ... however, if it's a gunfight and a gunfight alone, if that's what they're looking for, I'm personally ready for either one," Robertson later added.
