Is bush planning on heading for Paraguay in January 2009?
bush is reportedly mulling over the purchase of 100,000 acres in Paraguay, a country which has no extradition treaty with the U. S. and a country which many Nazis fled to after WWII.

Maybe not a reliable source, but george w. bush looking at the possibility of two years of investigations led by a democratic majority in congress and exposing the truth about him might be planning to get away for awhile once he longer is the white house resident. I wonder why he would think like that.

4. Bush's messiah, Moon, says SA safer from Nukes
According to one of his "preachers," Moon intended to use the land he bought in SA as his back plan to create his sovereign nation, create his own nation. That is, only if Moon's main plan for a united Korea to become his sovereign nation fell through. As of today, plan "A" for Korea to be that nation is still on the front burner.

The Moonites claim one reason Christianity failed is because it did not have a sovereign nation of its own. They believe they must have "land"...

I will be surprised if the Bush land purchase story is fully verified soon since he likely went through fronts. But, little doubt who gave Bush the idea to buy in SA if he did. Don't know about today but this is actually a good investment as Moon bought the land down there real, REAL cheap from struggling farmers and ranchers.

Humankind possesses enough nuclear bombs to destroy the world 100 times over. These bombs could kill us all with no chance of survival. If they start, they will start in the urban areas, where people are concentrated. So I secured the vast open land in South America. I feel it is big enough to feed one or two hundred million people.

Dark Side of Rev. Moon: Hooking George Bush
By Robert Parry - 1997

Bush also may have other Argentine business deals in the works with Moon. On Nov. 16, 1996, La Nacion quoted businessmen as saying that Bush and Moon were keeping an eye on plans to privatize the hydroelectric complex of Yacyreta, a joint $12 billion Paraguayan-Argentine project to dam the Parana River.

By Seamus Mirodan

PARAGUAY : The Reverend Moon has carved out a section of Paraguay that is twice the size of Luxembourg . Seamus Mirodan went to see it.

Reverend Sun Myung Moon, spiritual leader of the Unification Church, self-proclaimed Messiah, multimillionaire and a generous contributor to the US Republican Party, has been showing a strong interest over the last five years in little-known Paraguay at the centre of the South American continent.

Since 1999, Rev Moon has built his personal empire which begins on the marshy banks of the River Paraguay and stretches beyond the hazy, level horizon through 600,000 hectares of arid land - equivalent to more than two Luxembourgs - punctuated by solitary clusters of withered trees and sad bushes which struggle desperately for air.

...

Nevertheless, national Senator Domingo Laino sees a different pattern in Moon's acquisitions. "There are two principal branches to Moon's interest in Paraguay," he said, "control of the largest fresh drinking water source in the world and control of the narcotics business", which is so prevalent in this area. "President Lula told me that Brazil took serious measures to curb Moon a few years back as it became evident that he was buying up the border between our two countries," said the senator. ...

Paraguay is the major drugs port through which virtually all the cocaine produced by Bolivia and Peru passes. In the world's second most corrupt country, "the ease of buying influence is second to none", said Montiel. "Corruption reaches dangerous levels and he who wants transparency in Paraguay is a dead man. Indeed the famous Iran contra affair was operated from Ciudad del Este" on the south-east Paraguayan border with Argentina and Brazil....

Rev Moon's ideology allowed him to cuddle up to many South American dictators during this era. Indeed, according to Bolivian intelligence reports at the time, he sought to recruit an "armed church" of 7,000 Bolivians receiving paramilitary training to support the infamous cocaine coup which brought Gen Carlos Meza to power with Nazi war criminal Klaus Barbie running his security operations.

However, in the wake of the adoption of a human rights policy by U.S. President Jimmy Carter during his term from 1976 to 1980, support for Operation Condor was cut off by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency in 1977.

Almada claimed that Stroessner then relied primarily for guidance and assistance in Operation Condor activities on the Unification Church of the South Korean Sun Myung Moon sect under the cover of the World Anti-Communist League and the Pacific Anti-Communist League, both of which were backed by the KMT regime and headquartered in Taipei.
