It is why Bush et al kicked every hornet's nest they could find in the ME, even if they needed to lie to get approval to attack some places. They want a holy war and they want an apocalypse. They want to MAKE it happen. That is the scary part of it.

Image Source- 미디어몽구 Media Mongul (youtube) 2.22. Minister Jeon Kwang-hoon waving US flag at Gwanghwamun.

In public statements on the radio, February 22, the mayor of Seoul warned that police would blockade the city's public plaza's on February 29 when another Taegukki assembly led by the demogogue minister and his far right acolytes is anticipated. A confrontation is to be expected in which physical force would become a likely outcome to remove and disperse unlawful demonstrators violating the new health ban. Nominally, the Sincheonchi and Jeon Kwang-hoon are antagonistic to each other. Jeon Kwang-hoon is goading the Sincheonchi not to cooperate with the government, as well as his own followers. The mayor stated he suspected Jeon was not in his right mind.

Minister Jeon is the leader of the Korean Christian Council. He was arrested a few days ago for violating South Korean election campaign laws. A brief statement he made while being transported from the police station in handcuffs said the planned illegal demonstration planned for this Saturday would not place until Sunday, March 1, and would be a "worship service." The religious leader is associated with the Liberty Korea Party, now reformed as the United Future Party. Hwang Kyo-ahn, the former prime minister and LKP leader has appeared as a speaker at Minister Jeon's Taegukki demonstrations. The demonstrations call for President Moon to resign or be impeached because he is a communist and a dictator.

Now Jeon tries to frame his illegal demonstration in violation of the emergency public health ban on assemblies in Seoul's major public plaza's as "religious freedom" issue. During last week's illegal demonstration, Jeon ridiculed the Shincheonji cult for closing its churches in response to hundreds of its members being positive for corona virus. Jeon encouraged resistance to the government public health efforts.

The public defiance of government public health efforts during the health emergency is a misguided attempt to discredit the government and influence the general election April 15.
