Reverend Moon should be arrested under the Trading with the Enemy Act
A few years ago, Reverend Moon (head of the Unification Church, or the "Moonies") bought a bunch of old Soviet submarines "with the missile-launching hardware intact" - and gave them to North Korea (member of Bush's "Axis of Evil").

Isn't this illegal under the Trading with the Enemy Act? Shouldn't Moon be in jail for this? Why is this man still running the Washington Times, and being celebrated by Republican lawmakers. In my opinion, he should be locked up for treason.

Unfortunately it wasn't just Republican lawmakers
That was such a disgusting display.

I had never heard that he did that with the N Koreans, but it wouldn't surprise me.

1. This seems odd.
Whack job though he is, Moon has always been vehemently anti-communist. I believe he was imprisoned by the North Koreans 50 or so years ago. :shrug:

2. OK, putting on my tinfoil again

but did anyone think that maybe, just maybe, there are people
that benefit from DPK having a launch capability against the US.
Specifically a missile launch... possibly requiring a anti-missile
capability. Naw... couldn't happen. Nobody would be that evil.
