Religion – Self proclaimed "savior" Moon has financial and political ties worldwide worth billions of dollars. His ambition is no less than worldwide theocracy led by himself or his "sinless children." This guy has become the number one candidate for the anti-Christ. He is quietly helped along by the right wing politicians and pundits.
Is this the same guy from Korea and head of the Moonies cult?
That's quite a read RFE, and if its true its quite creepy.
Absolutely correct Daducha! Most people thought he went away,died, or was deported. But no. He has been hard at work recruiting new followers (or perhaps we should say buying them). He has quite a few in very high positions in government both here and around the world.
Have a look at what he has done in Japan, this is where his seed money came from, basically extortion schemes.

LOL apparently No Spin Dave (who ironically only wants to hear spin) approves of Moon's telling recent widows their husband's are burning in heII unless they fork over very large sums of yen for a statue or painting of the Moon man. I mean you did neg that link to the report. Goodness how can you be for such a thing? ROFALMFAO!

Yup - his new push is getting active in the NGO organizations.
Matter of fact - Josette Sheeran Shiner - a Moonie for 22 years - is now the executive director of the World Food Program for ther United Nations. George W. Bush PUSHED her
nomination last year.......and she got it.
This is nothing but rumor - so far - but I read that the
Secretary General of the U.N., Korean - Ban Ki MOON, is listed as a non-denominational Christian. The "rumor" part was that
that "non-denominational Christian" is practically code for
Unification Church member in Korea.
Well, if Orrin and Strom were for it, then we know it had to have the mark of excellence.
Religious freaks seem to be popping up everywhere wanting to take over the world. Moon's movement is young, but who knows, he could give the Muslims a run for their money! They claim to have the final prophet, but you can't beat Emperor of the World!

Sun Myung Moon has declared Jesus is a failure, that he (Moon) is greater than God because he has rescued the pathetic Jesus.
What the? He also seeks to become (actually declares he already is) Emperor of the World! And who are his followers?
You might be surprised at what kind of followers money can buy!
When I was growin up, I was a true believer in Jesus and Christianity. But then, 25 years ago, a movement took hold of Christianity in America ... the Christian Conservative movement.
Suddenly, Jesus was out ... and Republicans were IN.!!
Today, Christian Conservatives dont base their life-view on Jesus, the life view of Christian Conservatives is based on the Republican Platform ... which shifts and changes with every election.
Oh.. I forgot to say how this relates to Sun Myung Moon.
----------
When I was growin up ... Sun Myung Moon was considered a heathen nutcase brain-washer of young poeple ... a cult leader along the lines of that JOnes or L Ron Hubberd and Scientology.
The fact that Sun Mynug Moon is now our IDEOLOGICAL PARTNER in a union with Republicans and Neo-Conservatives ... well ... is there really any doubt at all what Christian Conservatism means any longer?
If you dint fill in the pause for yourself ... I will tell you point blank. ...
------
Bein Christian Conservative in America today means simply that you have a hardline, repressive/retribution oriented social philosophy. And your economic policy resembles a Libertarian, Lay-Za-Faire attitude to business ...
By that I mean, Business has more rights than Poeple. Poeple should always defer to the rights of Business ... and poeple should sacrifice all to the interests of business.
Amen.
By the way,,, did yall know that Sun Myung Moon founded The Washington Star for the explicit purpose of molding public opinion to his hardline beliefes?
And did you know that it was The Washington Star that was alone in keeping White Water alive as a 'scandal' when it looked as if it was going away for lack of anything pertinent?
So ... here you got this Korean ex-patriot, recruiter (scammer) of our young poeple into forking over all their assets to join his cult ... then he uses that money to nearly bring down a presidency and throw our nation into turmoil.
And THIS is the darling of the Republicans and Christian Conservatives.
NOW do yall see why Im CRAAAAZIE for Republican/Neo-Cons?!?!?!
YOU GOTTA BE CRAAAZIE TO LOVE EM!!!
Alls I can say is SHOOBIE SHOOBIE!!!
[(:--)>=|===
If I could give multiple positives, I certainly would!!!
What more needs to be said.
Moon owns the Washington Times also.
And it was illegal for a non U.S. citizen to own media in this nation until Newt Gingrich and his posse got rid of that law for their bestest buttbuddies Rupert Murdoch and Rev. Moon.
Murdoch is second in command, Moon runs the show for the so called "conservatives" (what has passed for conservativism in this country is anything but actually conservative.) I suspect many of the people who buy into the meaningless slogans of the extremists who have taken over the GOP are not aware of just how deep Moon's influence in fact goes. Either that or they are hiding their approval of it.
The 'liberal media' that gets bandied about so much here in Propeller kinda loses its ring with the Rupert Murdoch and Rev Moon media empires.
Ooops!
I misspoke.
mntman correctly named the paper that Sum Yung Loon founded.
The Washington Times ... NOT The Washington Star.
I guess I was thinkin how we Republicans hooked our future to this wackos Star.
Thanks mountainman.
Goppy, The Washington Star was founded in the 1800s. Of course, maybe Moon is reincarnated and he DID found the Star!
mntman ~
And, Insight Magazine and Noticias Del Mundo in Latin America.
I think Babs and Poppy were with the True Parents in So. Amer.
when he celebrated his new acquisition. Noticias Del Mundo
may also be available here in the states - I'm not sure,
but it probably is.
It was both actually, the Star was the name before Loony Moonie bought it. Did you know he bought API? That's right! Moon controls what goes out on the API wire.
Moon owns the Associated Press International.
But we don't want any regulation of media ownership, no, good heavens, perish the thought. And media is "liberul" or at least I have been told many hundreds of times by the neoclowns. LOL... but then cry.
Sorry, RFE, correction. Associated Press is owned by its newspaper members. The press wire now owned by Moon is another smaller service, can't remember which.
It's UPI... not exactly small. A very frightful development.
Whew, sorry, 1 letter off makes quite a difference, my sincere apologies. UPI United Press International.
Still a large news service. Thanks for the correction bluetexasvalley and jaspersneed.
Helen Thomas used to be the White House Correspondent for UPI right?
She did, and resigned when the Moonies acquired it, stating she could not work for the new owners. Many others resigned as well.
Radiofreeuropa ~
She went to the Hearst chain. She was back in the front
row but not being called on for questions. Well, she WAS
up until last week. She sits next to Martha Raddatz with ABC
- another terrific reporter - but dear Helen wasn't there.
I only hope her absense is temporary.
"It's UPI... not exactly small. A very frightful development."
Uhmm development? Dude this story is 3 years old
So development finishes at 3 years old?
That sure explains a lot, including yr post.
"Dude this story is 3 years old"
It's 8 years old, but who's counting?
injest ~
If you didn't hear any of these revelations on broadcast
or cable news..........then it is nowhere near OLD for
90% of Americans...........it's UNKNOWN!
For those of us getting re-acquainted with the Rev.Moon
- it's not old either.........it's on going!
jaspersneed ~
I read that acquiring UPI - even though it was having
dire financial difficulties - was a prime target because
owning the wire service would guarantee Moon's reporter
a seat on Air Force One. Losing a little money was worth
it for Moon to have even more high power access.
I see a lot of wingnuts from both ends of the rainbow be the first to post on contentious topics on the AP, so I think it's all about the money.
Goppy,
The Christians mostly never focused on Jesus' teachings. It was Jesus' death and magical ascension and Paul's teachings that guide the ideological arteries.
btw, Moon did not found the Washington Star! My S.O.'s father was a reporter, and that was a very old newspaper that went bankrupt and the Washington Post bought its facilities. Moon-boy came along after all of that.
But you're right--the Republican platform changes at every election--usually becoming more fascist in the process. I can forgive your minor oversights (seein' yur a gud Krischen 'n' all!).
Between Islam, the Moonies, the Evangelicals, and the mainline Prostestants regressing to the ancient, and the Catholics still saying one needs to have a package and be in the line of David, we're in a heap of trouble, I imagine.
Yes, mountain man corrected my mistake already ... and I acknowldeged already that the paper in question is the WASHINGTON TIMES ... not the Washington Star.
Rfe:
The failure is Moon and his corrupt thinking and beliefs. For the Republicans and neocons to embrace this only shows how very little they truly Love God.
These things are written about in The Revalation of Jesus Christ. There will be many false teachers and prophets.
How truly sad that those who claim to be Christians can even stomach being inthe same room with Moon.
Not a surprise though. When you worship money, power, sex, control, ... you are worshipping the things of the devil. It seems like many neocons want these things to be their god.
They are lost and should be looking for the light instead of trying to lead others into their darkness.
Moon and those of his ilk are truly evil. No wonder the politicians love him.
Now this is a member who knows of what he speaks!!
I feel as though I found a kindred spirit.
that he (Moon) is greater than God because he has rescued the pathetic Jesus.>>>
So absurd it's laughable. And yet the fundamentalist cretins fall over those CONS who LOVE the so called "reverend" moon. There's no understanding it.

The Bush Alliance With Sun Myung Moon
2005? WTF.
How does this 3 year old story qualify as
"Today's Hot Stories Submitted and Voted by You!"
There is no shelf life on a submission that has not been on propeller before if it is not posted as news. You know as well as I that the Moon influence on this country is purposefully not reported. Why no indignation over the sale of influence to this Reverend? Why do you seek to hush it up? This treachery is very real. Not many know about it.
"There is no shelf life on a submission that has not been on propeller before if it is not posted as news."
Lame excuse RFE. So we can repeat any and all stories that came up under "netscape"?
"You know as well as I that the Moon influence on this country is purposefully not reported. Why no indignation over the sale of influence to this Reverend? Why do you seek to hush it up? This treachery is very real. Not many know about it"
Do you have any idea how delusional you sound?

Hey - I'm grateful that someone found some of these "old"
stories and shared them. I don't appreciate being kept in the
dark about what's REALLY going on in my world.
Ask anyone if they remember the Rev. Moon or the Moonies
and I would lay odds that MOST of them (if they were at
least teenagers in the 80's)will say they remember them
as kooks with the mass weddings and that they thought they
just faded away a long time ago. Ask around - then tell
them the historical facts you gathered by studying up on
OLD news. It practically qualifies as "Breaking News" if
they have never heard it before - doesn't it?
