I have run into the folowers of Rev Moon's cult in two cities. He has vowed to end freedon in the United States. He really does brainwash followers. They have mass weddings where he picks out who gets married to whom. Meanwhile.....
Geroge Bush and Rev. Moon subsidize N. Korea By Robert Parry
from Consortiumnews.com
George W. Bush’s choice of Donald Rumsfeld to be U.S. defense secretary could put an unintended spotlight on the role of the Rev. Sun Myung Moon - a Bush family benefactor - in funneling millions of dollars to communist North Korea in the 1990s as it was developing a missile and nuclear weapons program.
...
Yet, during the early-to-mid 1990s, the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency was monitoring a series of clandestine payments from Sun Myung Moon's organization to the North Korean communist leaders who were overseeing the country's military strategies.
According to DIA documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, Moon’s payments to North Korean leaders included a $3 million "birthday present" to current communist leader Kim Jong Il and offshore payments amounting to "several tens of million dollars" to the previous communist dictator, Kim Il Sung.
The alleged payments - and broader Moon-North Korean business deals reported by the DIA - came at a time of a strict U.S. government ban on financial transactions between North Korea and any U.S. person or entity, to keep hard currency out of North Korea's hands.
Legal experts say that ban would have applied to Moon given his status as a permanent U.S. resident, even though he maintains South Korean citizenship.
Bush Speeches
While negotiating those business deals with North Korea in the 1990s, Moon’s organization also hired former President George H.W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush to give speeches at Moon-sponsored events.
During one Moon-sponsored speech in Argentina in November 1996, former President Bush declared, "I want to salute Reverend Moon," whom Bush praised as "the man with the vision."
The father of the incoming U.S. president has refused to divulge how much Moon’s organization paid for these speeches which were delivered in the United States, Asia and South AmericaConsortium News
