The Bush family and the Moonies.
Are all these conspiracy theories for real or are they just the same 'ol tin-foil business? I don't want to waste time educating myself on them if it's just more of the same silly crap we see out there time and again.

So, since we're all relatively sane in this forum, I was hoping some of you could tell me if there is any truth to these allegations or if they are just a bunch of lies.

1. There could be something to it
The thing about the Moonies is that they own the Washington Times newspaper. And they throw a lot of money at Rethugs and Rethug causes. There could be something to it. I know that the Washington Times has been after Kerry since he first set foot in DC as a freshman Senator. (They questioned his sanity after the Daniel Ortega thing and then got really mean when Kerry took off after the Iran-Contra baddies.)

I would not be at all surprised to find out that Moonie money was involved with the Bushies and the REthugs. These guys have not shame. And it's not the Moonies per se, it's their print assets and their money that you follow. That's where the damage comes from. (I will do a quick trace and see what comes out of a search for Moonies, Bush, Korea, Money.)

2. One of the media's most sought after "miltary/intel expert" is Bill Gertz
Edited on Mon Mar-28-05 03:30 PM by blm
who works for the Washington Times. The mainstream media and the GOP consider him a foremost expert, anyway, and promote him as such.

Gertz works to plant counter stories and theories in the press, that coincidentally always blame previous action by Clinton and his administration and praise the work of Bush and his WH.

He also happens to be Moon's number one favored "son" follower who gets unquestioned access to the White House, Pentagon and CIA. In return, he writes stories meant to manipulate the public FOR Bush's policies. Because the msm has accepted his word as an expert, that makes him a dangerous man for those concerned with real democracy.

Everything associated with Moon is far more meaningful than people realize. Moon and Poppy Bush go back over 40 years. Moon helped fund the anti-communist groups that infiltrated college campuses in the US and spread across South America to bring down any government that was tolerant of socialism in any form. That funding helped to initiate the many little dirty wars in Central and South America that the US instigated.

Anti-communism was always the outward reason, but, those funding the causes were all totalitarians and fascists.

I think you would have to be a conicidence theorist to ignore the decades of solid links between Moon and the Bush family.

The only way Bush escaped impeachment for his role in IranContra and BCCI was due to counter stories pumped up by the Wahington Times that often blamed others as well as those doing the investigations, which meant Kerry was a permanent target for them.

Think back to what the Moonie Times contributed to the takedown of Clinton and understand that they cut their teeth on the smearing of Kerry for years, well before Clinton rose to power.
