US Foreign Policy and the Moonies...
So, Karen Smith, Moon's right arm at the UN, just spilled the beans to all these folks who have been accepting Moon's "Ambassadors for Peace" awards. She told the one's traipsing around with Moon's IIWP, that THEY are the Moon tools who will bring to fruition his "vision" for the planet...she still didn't tell them so they would understand...but like the American Freedom Coalition and other fronts here in the good old U.S. of A., Moon just sets the table, the conned and the chumps do his work for him...all his power is derived from those who lend him theirs.........

Too bad no one reports on this - I mean it's just national security we're talking about here, ya know??? I guess the media thinks letting Jim Jones on steroids jump in the middle of the Middle East (and North Korean) peace process is a good thing. As Bush obviously does, given that the moonites brief his administration on their efforts....

One would think that someone who claims to be the Messiah being right smack in the ME and claiming to be bringing "peace" - advising our State Department.... one would think that would raise an eyebrow among right wing, left wing, or wingless preachers, but somehow it hasn't and it is getting too late to speak I am afraid...

Like maybe they have missed John 5:43 somewhere along the line?
Not a peep. Do you find that odd??? Do you think Moon is just the dry run for someone later? haha

My oh my....

snip:
Our conference continued on Wednesday with the session on IIFWP and Middle East Peace Initiative (MEPI). Mrs. Karen Smith, director of the UN office for IIFWP, gave a significant overview presentation on the work and the underlying values and principles behind IIFWP, presenting aspects of faith and the centrality of the family in a fresh and creative way. ....

The professors, scholars, and religious leaders in the audience are looking for a more in-depth understanding at this time. Many of them have become Ambassadors for Peace (AFP) over the last couple of years; through Karen's presentation they could see the vision of IIFWP to truly create a culture of peace not simply in theory but in reality. Now they can realize that the AFP that have been participating with IIFWP throughout the world are the very ambassadors who will make this vision real.
.....

Over lunch Father Hatoum summed up the MEPI work in his gratitude for IIFWP and for Father Moon. He said, "Without this stimulus from outside we would never be able to truly achieve peace. but now I can see peace like a light that is coming over the hill. Peace is coming to the Middle East and we can see it's because Father Moon has been guided by God to push us to seek peace, to not allow us to rest or hesitate. All parties - Jewish, Muslim and Christian - are feeling the desire to seek peace actively. The key to Father Moon's teaching is very simple. - we don't talk about peace; we do the peace." ....

Several people asked to give testimony. One was Mr. Rony Wuulf Smolar, who has been a journalist for many years and has covered the Middle East quite extensively. In the work of IIFWP he sees a necessary components - that is, supportive encouragement coming from beyond the Israelis and Palestinians. "Encouragement and enlightened support are now coming and therefore I can see the peace process moving forward. I'm deeply happy to see this."

from Mother Jones in 1986 did an article on Moon and the religious right. They reported that Moon believe that after God looks back on Moon's efforts

God himself will acknowledge, "Reverend Moon is far better than me, the Heavenly Father."

more from Mother Jones...
Moon has been blunt about the purpose of his spending spree.(in the USA) His mission is to "unify" the world in a theocracy headquartered in Korea, and the weak willed democratic United States is only to be a stepping-stone. According to the congressional testimony of Allen Tate Wood, a former high ranking official in the Unification Church, Moon told followers in 1970: "Part of our strategy must be to make friends in FBI, the CIA, the police forces, the military and the business community... as a means of entering the political arena, influencing foreign policy, and ultimately establishing absolute dominion over the American people." ...


The beaming round faced Moon still has exuberant political visions, but nowadays he tones down his rhetoric. In less grandiose moments, he merely talks of using the electoral process to gain control of the US government.

read Tim LaHaye's letter to Moon's main political operative at the time, Bo Hi Pak, here at Gorenfeld's:

Moon and North Korea - our "press" ignores this. It's just national security, why pay any attention?

3. Rev. Moon was crowned king of the universe in the US Senate.
Gee. This guy is close to the anti-commies, the MI-complex, the commies, the mafia, the yakuza, drugs inc., the BFEE, the Octopus and who knows what else and he thinks he's bigger than Big? Who's he think he is? George Bush?





Moonie leader 'crowned' in Senate

Republicans and Democrats attend cult blessing ceremony


Julian Borger in Washington
Thursday June 24, 2004
The Guardian

The US Senate was used for a bizarre ritual in which the Rev Sun Myung Moon, the head of the Unification church, was "crowned" and declared himself the messiah in the presence of more than a dozen Republican and Democratic members of Congress, it was reported yesterday.

"Emperors, kings and presidents ... have declared to all heaven and Earth that Reverend Sun Myung Moon is none other than humanity's saviour, messiah, returning Lord and true parent," the 85-year-old Korean "Moonie" cult leader told several hundred guests at the meeting in one of the Senate's office buildings on March 23, according to the Washington Post.

He also claimed endorsement from Marx, Lenin, Stalin and Hitler, who had all been reformed and reborn through his church's teachings - an idiosyncratic version of Christianity which rejects the use of the cross as a symbol and denounces homosexuals as "dirty dung-eating dogs".

An account of the ceremony was first published by a Washington investigative journalist, John Gorenfeld.

According to a transcript of the event, Mr Moon declared: "I am God's ambassador, sent to Earth with his full authority. I am sent to accomplish his command to save the world's six billion people, restoring them to Heaven with the original goodness in which they were created."
