However, he is not understanding Old Testament prophecy correctly.

Really? Who decides what words should, and should not be taken literally? I'll take literal over Replacement Theology and metaphor any day. Someone who calls it 'Old Testament' prophecy already has indicated what they think of the Word of G-d. At least when Robertson spoke, he used G-d's very words.

Poetic language in the Bible should not be taken literally.

The prophets often use it. When Christ came he established the new "Israel". God's chosen are now those redeemed by Christ.

The Old Testament land of Israel served its purpose in bringing forth the Savior.

Really? God's own words, you say?

My Bible is missing the verse that reads "And I would say, Woe unto any prime minister of Israel who takes a similar course to appease the E.U., the United Nations or the United States of America."

Those sound like Pat's words, not God's.

ROFL!
Does Pat, or you, take the 11th commandment literally?
