Nothing irritates me more than to be given half-truths and then be expected to make an informed decision on what I believe. The FFWP calls their timeline “abbreviated”, and that is the truth. Why make a decision based on an abbreviated timeline because it has the “seal of approval”? To counter this trend, I have compiled a time line that adds information to the “official abbreviated timeline” put out by the FFWP here:

 An Abbreviated Chronology of Recent Events| 29 June 2010http://www.familyfed.org/members/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2162:an-abbreviated-chronology-of-recent-events&catid=68:others&Itemid=415

 The original FFWP timeline is in italics in this document. The additional information is linked with the readily available public sources put on blogs and on “Facebook”. I have tried to provide all the links for the information here, so you can click, read in the full context and decide if they are used appropriately here or not. My comments are in Arial font, bold face, nine point like this one is so that you can separate what I think from what has been said by others. I asked questions that I would like answered five times. I am on no one’s payroll, attend no service at the moment, and have no interest in “either” side being more right or more “principled”. I don’t have any official stamp, nor would I ever want to suggest that I have the one and complete view for you to adopt. I don’t even know why I feel compelled to compile this information other than it irritates me to see one-sided information. I am a researcher who wants more information before I form my own conclusions to what I believe. I have included issues during this time that surround the True Family for context, not just issues relating to Hyun Jin directly. If you find my information incomplete or inaccurate, don’t come back to me with questions, as I don’t have any more information that I have put here. YOU do your homework as I tried to do, ask and demand answers to people who have the answers and put out a revised timeline of your own. I will read it and do what I suggest you do to this one. If after reading this, you are no longer sure, are confused or can see both sides, then I have done my job in writing this all out for you. I suggest that you copy this to MS word, edit out my comments and questions, use the brain God gave you to fill in your own questions, comments and conclusions, and ask people and search for answers where there is incomplete, inaccurate or missing information. Get off your mental rear end, especially if you are giving your life, time, money and children to the organization and start demanding truth, wherever it might lead you.   

REVISED TIMELINE NUMBER ONE  YEAR 2000 In October of 2000, Father, hoping to solve the issue of world hunger, purchased 60,000 hectares of land in Casado and entrusted it to Mr. K, who was in charge of the business in South America at that time. However, this land entailed a number of problems from the start, including the extreme leftist group called Pro-Tierra, which was supported by a socialistic labor party P-MAS (Partido del Movimiento al Socialismo,) and local people were also prone to be influenced by them. http://www.unification.net/nikolaus.beutl/20100610.html  YEAR 2001 In 2001, Japanese leaders gave a report to Hyun Jin Nim regarding the current situation of Japan, and it revealed frauds that had been committed by the hands of a few foreign leaders. Those leaders had embezzled the money from the members, which they used to buy houses and invest in their own businesses. When people criticized Hyun Jin Nim in a church leaders’ meeting in February, he said, “I saw the enormous suffering in Japan. This is blood money.” However, it was those leaders who had taken this blood money, not Hyun Jin Nim. After thorough research, Hyun Jin Nim instructed Rev. Y, who was in charge of Japan at that time, to correct those misconducts. However, Rev. Y instead accused Hyun Jin Nim in front of

True Father, claiming that Hyun Jin Nim was making those leaders suffer. This enraged Father, and Hyun Jin Nim was banned from all public activities.http://www.unification.net/nikolaus.beutl/20100610.html  YEAR 2002 In 2002, Father ordered Hyun Jin Nim to conduct a reform in Washington DC. In order to support the Washington Times and other entities, UCI has invested a large sum of money every month and tried to save the boat business that was not making a profit. This time, Mr. S, who was in charge of the boat business, reported to Father that Hyun Jin Nim was trying to close the business down. Hyun Jin Nim was severely scolded by Father in front of the members, and he was banned from public activities again. http://www.unification.net/nikolaus.beutl/20100610.html

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25 (UPI) -- United Press International announced Wednesday that Dr. Chung Hwan Kwak has been named chairman, chief executive officer and president of the 95-year-old news service. Kwak's appointment by the UPI board of directors, effective Thursday, follows the resignation of Douglas D.M. Joo, who is leaving UPI but will remain as president of News World Communications Inc., the parent corporation of UPI, The Washington Times, Insight, the World and I magazine, Tiempos del Mundo and several other publications. http://downhold.org/lowry/chung.html

YEAR 2005 In Jin issues an appeal to members for money to pay off debts so that the Korean government can release Col. Pak, her father-in-law, from prison.

 My father is a noble man, despite the fact that his inaction makes him look like a heartless leader. A king is only as good as the advisers with whom he surrounds himself and my father is no exception. He is making the best decision with the reports and advice that are made available to him by current leaders. In Jin MoonAugust 2005 InJin Nim's Letter to Members http://www.tparents.org/Moon-Talks/InJinMoon/InJinMoon-050800.htm YEAR 2006 Biden, also a Washington lobbyist, took control of Paradigm in August 2006 and was, for a brief period, its president - getting paid $1.2 million a year despite no experience in the sector, according to charges in one of the suits. It was in the Lotito suit that Hunter Biden took a swipe at [James] Park. Biden, in a counter-claim against Lotito, charged the consultant with failing to inform him that Park had a drug problem. Park, a Paradigm founder and chief investment officer, "used illegal substances on a regular basis," and was an "absentee manager," it is alleged in court papers. The Washington lobbyist also claimed in court papers that he and his uncle only agreed to work with Park after "[Park] completed rehabilitation in Florida."http://www.nypost.com/p/news/business/item_kt9Cj0C3yRlC66b2l2KEnI;jsessionid=80BB031E3E356854FB5CD1551C621884#ixzz0sDLu4MMl South AmericaFather had put Hyun Jin Nim in charge of North and South America in 2006. After that, Mr. Ota, then CEO, and Mr. Moon, Korean National Messiahs of Paraguay, had asked Hyun Jin Nim’s aid in resolving the issues. http://www.unification.net/nikolaus.beutl/20100610.html 

Washington TimesA nasty succession battle is now heating up at the paper, punctuated by allegations of racism, sexism and unprofessional conduct, that has implications far beyond its fractious newsroom. According to several reliable inside sources, Preston Moon, the youngest son of Korean Unification Church leader and Times financier Sun Myung Moon, has initiated a search committee to find a replacement for editor in chief Wesley Pruden—a replacement who is not Pruden’s handpicked successor, managing editor Francis Coombs. Preston Moon wants to wrest control of the paper from Pruden and Coombs, according to a Times senior staffer, in order to shift the paper away from their brand of conservatism, which is characterized by extreme racial animus and connections to nativist and neo-Confederate organizations. A Harvard MBA, Preston Moon is said to be seeking to install an editorial regime with more widely palatable politics  Both Coombs and Pruden, meanwhile, are facing a litany of complaints from former and current colleagues of racism and sexual harassment. More than a dozen well-placed sources spoke to The Nation. Many wished to remain anonymous, for fear of jeopardizing their jobs. Others spoke on the record. But the sources are consistent about the atmosphere Pruden and Coombs have fostered inside the paper, which they describe as profoundly demeaning and abusive to women and minorities. Preston Moon has hired the powerhouse Washington law firm Nixon Peabody to interview Times staffers about the allegations of racism and sexism. Pruden and Coombs have stonewalled Preston Moon’s investigation and threatened to hold a public news conference, during which they would denounce “the crazy Moonies” and claim that Preston Moon and his father are pressuring them to inject pro-Unification Church propaganda into the paper’s coverage, according to a senior newsroom staffer. Times president Douglas D.M. Joo is backing Coombs and Pruden to the bitter end. Joo is a business rival of Preston Moon who, the senior staffer says, would be stripped of his post at the Times and redeployed to Korea if Pruden and Coombs go down….. Through all these disturbing incidents, Times president Joo has stood by Pruden and Coombs. In June, according to a source close to senior management, Joo received a memo detailing specific charges of sexual harassment and racism against Coombs. According to the source, Joo dismissed the memo, telling Times owners from News World Communications, including Preston Moon, “I don’t fucking care.”… Pruden, Coombs and Joo are now operating like a troika to eliminate threats, real and perceived, to their continued control over the Times. “This is everything to them,” a senior staffer said. “And they will do anything they have to in order to survive. It’s slash and burn.”…http://www.alternet.org/media/41956?page=entire Ever since Father had appointed Hyun Jin Nim as the Chairman of the UCI, Hyun Jin Nim has been leading those organizations, including the Washington Times, towards self sufficiency; without the need for funding from overseas. Mr. J and Mr. K opposed this and attempted to oust Hyun Jin Nim from the UCI. As a result, both of them have been dismissed from the board. Many members remember the HDH at East Garden when Father scolded Hyun Jin Nim for apparently embezzling $7 million. This was due to the accusation by Mr. J and Mr. K. However, once it became clear that this money had been used by someone on their own side (Mr. P,) they quickly halted addressing this issue without even vindicating Hyun Jin Nim’s name.  Then, Mr. K and Mr. J hired lawyers from Williams & Connolly LLP, one of the best law firms in Washington DC, to conduct a legal action against Hyun Jin Nim. On the other hand, Hyun Jin Nim ordered his staff not to make any counterattack so that this would not bother True Parents, saying that there was nothing to worry for he was clean. Interestingly, after months of attacks, this law firm canceled the contract with the two in the beginning of December. Lawyers often get fired by their clients but this is a rare incidence where

the lawyers themselves voluntarily quit. It seems as though they decided to discontinue the contract in order to avoid blemish of loss because there was no chance of winning the suit.http://www.unification.net/nikolaus.beutl/20100610.html  YEAR 2007  South AmericaIn 2007, Hyun Jin Nim sent his staff and was seeking a way to resolve the situation in Casado. In 2008, Hyun Jin Nim directly met with the president, discussed about the vision for the country, and then explained Father’s motivation for purchasing the land in Casado. The business of charcoal and raising cattle were getting materialized and the resolution was under way with 90% approval rate from the locals.http://www.unification.net/nikolaus.beutl/20100610.html GPF was considered a great success in our movement in 2007, 2008 and it was being positively reported by Rev. Cho to TP, and TP were “happy” about it. But then, Rev. Cho is removed and newly appointed Rev. Shin has a negative stance towards GPF and HJN. Some leaders didn’t think of GPF as something positive for some reason. Rev. Cho was the last person in the capacity of continental director to report positively to TP about a HJN related activity. Ever since 2008, there are no more top leaders who report positively about GPF or HJN to TP. Now, that may affect how TP perceive HJN’s activities. Leaders reporting GPF as an activity by HJN for self-aggrandizement, reporting that he sees himself as a 2nd TP, that he said that TP failed their mission, that he’s challenging TP’s position, etc. Without doubt, that kind of reports would bring anger to TF’s perception of HJN. I had the privilege of translating materials and conversations from people our movement considers to be close sources to TP or high up in our food chain… they reveal that there is an active effort to create distance between TP and HJN. And an effort to have TF angry at HJN to publicly denounce him. So, for me, yes, it does seem very plausible that there’s people way up there making deliberate decisions against HJN without Father’s approval. They may even get Father’s approval later, but even if they do receive Father’s reluctant approval to attack his own son, is that desirable? Does it make their actions kosher just because they got Father to say “Yes”? http://whatisonthemoon.tumblr.com/page/5 

YEAR 2008 In 2008, Hyun Jin nim had many successful GPFs around the world. After each event, he wrote detailed reports to True Parents, completely offering the victory to them. The reports he gave them in person are probably the few that actually came across accurately. After sending reports off with leaders, some leaders chose not to read some of them to True Parents or skewed the reports stating that Hyun Jin nim is trying to take over True Parent’s position through GPF, even though Hyun Jin nim has always testified to True Parents in all his speeches. Of course, this angered True Father creating another misunderstanding.

I heard at a leader’s meeting, when reports were being read, Father asked about a report from Hyun Jin nim about GPF. One continental leader spoke up and said that he had a report to read from Hyun Jin nim. Other leaders told him to sit down and be quiet. In other words, this continental leader had to fight to read the report. http://whatisonthemoon.tumblr.com/page/6 July, 2008 In Jin Moon announced as new chairperson of the “Unification movement” in America by Hyung Jin Moon. Hyun Jin Moon was not informed in advance, nonetheless accepted this announcement. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48

 August 21, 2008In Jin announces an HSA-UWC board meeting on very short notice. In the memo, the resignation of eight board members is requested, and the addition of six new board members, including In Jin Nim as chairman, James Park and others is requested. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48 (copy of the announcement) August 23, 2008Father is informed of the changes and demands the original board be restored. Five of the eight members were reinstated, and four of the six new members were kept on, keeping the balance of voting for the new members. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48 August 2008CD Kim visited True Parents in Alaska asking for clarification of leadership in America. True Father, in a recorded message, said that In Jin is a “chook sa jang”, pastor, in America, and that In Jin is under Hyun Jin’s supervision. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48 September 14, 2008Hyun Jin meets with True Father to clarify once again, and is given the same information. Additionally, Hyun Jin is scolded for trying to change the board of Directors, even though he requested to restore the original board that In Jin had changed in August of 2008. True Father demanded the board be restored and reiterated that Hyun Jin is responsible for the Americas. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48 September 23-25, 2008Hyun Jin meets with In Jin to explain that True Father wants the original board reinstated, and this request is ignored. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48  September 30, 2008Hyung Jin issues an international memo stating that all FFWPU board changes in all regions and missions must be approved by himself. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48 Nov. 11, 2008Unauthorized transfer of Paraguay land UCI representative Thomas Field prepares a board resolution to transfer land property belonging to HSA-UWC Paraguay to four for-profit entities.  The authority of True Parents' designated representatives to Paraguay and the World Mission Department is circumvented when they are not given notice of the special meeting. True Parents belatedly learn of the unauthorized transfer in September 2009.

These land transfers were not authorized by True Parents. SOUTH AMERICAThis is a portion of a letter written by Moondo Field, son of Thomas Field; someone who actually lives in Paraguay and knows the situation in that country….

My family works in Paraguay, we are directly involved. And we would never be involved with anything if it meant stealing from TP. To accuse HJN of that is to accuse my family who is responsible for several projects through the companies that “hold” the land. These are the lands of God, TP, and our Movement. Moreover, they are lands the Messiah acquired for a purpose. We work with that in mind. Is HJN stealing TP’s property and putting the lands into his own companies? No, he’s not stealing anything. He did everything in order to SAVE our lands that

were in a critical state. You need to understand the context here too, in order to see the full picture. It’s a simple context too; and that’s why I’m amazed when these leaders make such accusations and get away with it so easily. There are legal reasons why the Church itself couldn’t maintain the lands on its own with its name and it was necessary to put the lands under the structure of companies. Very simple legal reasons that are easily understood. Just think about it legally, what does it mean to be a church organization, a non-profit entity that is exempted from paying taxes? Say the land has 100 cows and more cows are born. Soon you can start selling the cows. Ah, except you can’t sell the cows if you’re a church (remember tax-exempt organization?) because then you’re basically scamming the government by making a profit without paying taxes. It would be almost a ‘money-laundering’ operation with the church as a front. I was in several meetings with Korean leaders (will not name them) who could not grasp this concept. They wanted to do business in the name of the church while all the lawyers were saying it’s illegal.And then think, what does it mean to own land bigger than 65 countries? Imagine the amount of taxes and maintenance fees that need to be paid to manage that. Imagine having to fence 680,000 ha (some 2650 square miles or 1.6 million acres) and pay for security. Imagine having squatters (people who illegally enter your land and stay there) entering from all sides, political factions trying to argue that you don’t have ownership over your land, violent clashes taking place in our land, people asking for jobs (there’s indigenous and many other people living in our lands), secret runways in the middle of our jungles for airplanes to drop off their cocaine shipments. We’re talking about a vast amount of land that needs to be protected from all sides and from external “enemies”. From where does the church get money to pay all of that? Donations from Japan? Is there a foreseeable future of becoming independent from donations if we use the legal structure of a church to own the lands? No. You need companies because companies can legally create a profit and maintain the lands. We have a lot of resources in that land that would be a waste not to use. Also, the government is on the lookout to take away land that is idle. You need to use the land productively or you risk it being confiscated. But, you need profit to pay the huge sum of taxes for the land, generate jobs, pay for everything that the land requires (security, infrastructure, etc.), so on and so forth.http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=129050903785025&v=wall#!/topic.php?uid=129050903785025&topic=196 President Kim Yoon Sang was in charge of the Jardim Project from the beginning. He was placed in that position by True Father. TF never removed him from that position despite numerous complaints and accusations from other leaders, both Korean and Brazilian. He was not some new leader. The Jardim Project was international in scope and thus not directlly under the Brazilian church management. But the Project needed the cooperation of the Brazilian church in legal matters such as titles to land, legal proceedings, licenses etc. In 2008 Mauricio Baldini and other church leaders doubted President Kim's word that TF had given him authority to sell some real estate. Another Korean-speaking member was present when TF gave that authority and backed up President Kim's statement in writing. So the Brazilian church leaders grudgingly signed the necessary papers allowing the sale of some property. The sale was to be administered by a lawyer that President Kim and his staff had chosen. It turned out that that lawyer misled Pres. Kim, abused the trust place in him, and tried to rob us blind. Mauricio Baldini used that incident as his excuse for not trusting official notices coming from International headquarters. Charles Ray Kannal Http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=129050903785025&v=wall#!/topic.php?uid=129050903785025&topic=167 In South America, I won’t mention which country. Hyun Jin Nim had caused a transfer of church owned properties. We’re talking sixty thousand hectors to his own companies. Six hundred thousand hectors, I stand corrected. That’s not an exaggeration. So, no. To answer your question, no. There is a, I think, UCI’s management are, tried to divert certain assets under the pretext that this is a way of saving assets. Well, that’s fine. That’s great. But, first before you change the Board of Directors of an organization, you consult it with Father. You get his approval, then that’s fine. What is his excuse? “I submit reports to Father. It never gets there. Dr. Peter Kim is always intercepting my reports. Therefore, I declare independence.” That’s a faulty logic folks. And, over in New York, I said, “Yes, Hyun Jin Nim is being stupid.” This is not I am not attacking

him because the logic is faulty. If the report doesn’t get to Father, then at the very minimum, you have to exercise your own diligence, exalt your capacities and go before Father and report it properly if you so believe that it will be intercepted! Don’t tell me that people are not reporting correctly to Father. You go before Father! What is the problem here? Don’t make others your excuse. It’s clear to me. Yes sir. http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=76774838423&topic=9620  YEAR 2009 January 2009Unprecedented breach of UC tradition by UCI board In what appears to have been part of a pre-arranged plan to take over the UCI board of directors, Chung Hwan Kwak resigns from the UCI board. The board now has five members.A meeting of the UCI board is held, and Mike Sommer and Rick Perea are elected to the board, bringing the total number of board members to seven. True Parents were not consulted on these additions.Thomas Walsh and Victor Walters are asked to resign. Mr. Walsh was not expecting this development. Per comments of Mr. Walters, he was asked to resign for his own protection. True Parents were not conslulted on these resignations.The other two existing directors - Dong Moon Joo and Peter Kim - are not informed of the resignations of Mr. Walsh and Mr. Walters.This series of events was unprecedented in the history of UCI going back more than 28 years. Never had anyone been removed from the board without prior consultation with True Parents. The Articles of Incorporation of UCI filed on February 2, 1977 states, in pertinent part, that "The Directors recognize and acknowledge that the Reverend Sun Myung Moon has provided the inspiration and spiritual leadership for the founding of the Corporation and is the spiritual leader of the international Unification Church movement.”

In addition, the Article Third, Section 1 of the Articles of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of Unification Church International dated February 5, 1980 further states UCI has and will dedicate itself to the following activities: "To serve as an international organization assisting, advising, coordinating, and guiding the activities of Unification Churches organized and operated throughout the world."  February, 2009Father asks Hyun Jin to commence world tours. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48

February 23, 2009CD Pyung Hwa Kim wrote to Peter Kim, requesting clarification once again about the leadership in America, and requesting an international memo sent out to confirm for everyone those directions. Hyun Jin requested a board meeting the for the next day in order to reconstitute the original board members after meeting with In Jin at 1:00 in the New Yorker. The board meeting “did not go well”. Kook Jin and Hyung Jin were in attendance by phone, even though they were not board members. Kook Jin declared the board meeting “unauthorized”, and In Jin moved to have the meeting dismissed until further discussion with True Father. Dr. Joon Ho Seuk responded to CD Kim’s request for clarification by saying there had been no change in In Jin’s

leadership of the American movement. Hyun Jin was trying to restore the original board as Father requested, not trying to oust In Jin’s leadership. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48

February 25, 2009NHQ20090203 No. 7 MEMORANDUMFrom: Dr. Pyung Hwa Kim, Continental Director, NA1, Rev. Michael Jenkins,President FFWPU, USA On Monday, February 23rd, the senior leaders of our US movement were called to meet with Dr. Hyun Jin Moon who shared his vision for our movement in America and the important role of our work in the world today. One key purpose of the meeting was to clarify True Parents’ recent statements about the overall leadership for the movement in the US. As True Parents’ have stated in the past and several times last week at Hoon Dok Hae in Korea, Dr. Hyun Jin Moon has the central responsibility for guiding our movement in the USA and throughout the Americas. http://www.tparents.org/Library/Unification/Talks/Kim-09/Kim-090225.htm

  Feb. 26, 2009 Attempted takeover of HSA-UWC USA Stating that he is "the appointed leader of America . . .", Hyun Jin Nim attempts to takeover the board of HSA-UWC USA by challenging the appointment of In Jin Nim.

The board agrees to consult True Parents and follow their advice. It adjourns without making any

decision on the composition of the board.

 In February 2009, after Father called on him to have a special role with America, Hyun Jin Nim demanded that the board of directors of the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity (HSA-UWC) in the United States be convened to make changes in the board’s membership. However, word came from Father, as the founder and central spiritual authority of our church, that his desire was that there should be no changes to the board of directors at that time. That direction was confirmed through several channels from Father. In a meeting with Hyun Jin Nim and a number of representatives of HSA UWC, at his home in East Garden, I asked the person who was the Continental Director at that time if he had received the direction from Father that there should be no changes to the board. He confirmed to all of us there that he had indeed been informed of Father’s direction but said that it was best to just support Hyun Jin Nim. A call was made to Korea to Father’s assistant by speaker phone. Father’s special assistant confirmed that Father had asked that there be no changes to the board. When we arrived at Pine Ridge Resort in Korea, Father was very serious about the five board members who voted to allow the meeting to continue and to consider Hyun Jin Nim’s proposed changes. He was also deeply concerned about Hyun Jin Nim’s involvement with this situation. It was very clear when we sat before Father after we arrived that the direction “not to make any changes” was in fact his very own direction as our founder and spiritual leader. The direction that

Father took from that point was not based on reports or others’ analysis. Father was focused on the direction he gave concerning the board and what to do about those who didn’t follow. He immediately requested that all the board members that voted to continue the meeting, (which would allow for changes to be made) be notified that they should resign. They were notified and those board members resigned. Father has forgiven them because they came forward and united with him by resigning. Father then asked all the board members, the current ones and those who resigned, to come to Pine Ridge to go to the Original Divine Principle lectures.http://www.familyfed.org/members/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2165:reflections-on-our-current-course-and-the-turning-point-that-occurred-in-brazil-&catid=99:national&Itemid=376

 

March 2, 2009Hyun Jin receives information from a board member explaining that the September 4, 2008 board meeting was led by Kook Jin, who is not a board member, and constantly evoked the name of the international President Hyung Jin in the meeting to decide who is the leader of the church in America. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48

 

March 2009Hyun Jin continues doing the GPF. He had a conversation with Peter Kim in which he was told that Peter Kim reported to True Father first about Kook Jin in Korea, then reported to Father that Hyun Jin was trying to take over the board of directors. Hyun Jin tried to speak with Father about it, but from those reports, Father was very angry and would not listen. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48

 Hyun Jin was called to Sokcho by True Father. He left the GPF tour to attend. There a spirit world message was read that indicated, among other things, that Hyung Jin was the true leader of the Unification movement. The organization of the movement was also laid out in this spirit world message, which gave Kook Jin control of the entire worldwide financial base. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48

 Beginning on March 1st, Father offered special prayers for one week concerning what further steps should be taken. Hoon Mo Nim was asked to pray and check the situation internally. On March 8th at the Sunday morning Hoon Dok Hae at Pine Ridge (where the seven-day Original Divine Principle workshop had just concluded) True Family, including Hyun Jin Nim, elders of the church, and five hundred members gathered to hear Father’s message. Father’s talk there is well documented on video. At that time Father reiterated that Rev. Hyung Jin Moon is the central representative to all of True Family and all our movement on behalf of True Parents. He shared that directions would come to our world movement from True Parents through Rev. Hyung Jin Moon and that all True Family, together with elders of the church leadership (Continental Directors and others), should make a consensus on how to fulfill True Parents’ directions. That consensus should then be reported back to Hyung Jin Nim, who should bring it to True Father through True Mother. (Mother–son cooperation is a fundamental principle of Parentism.) Father

then asked Hyun Jin Nim to stop all public activities for one year and to stay by his side during that time. He said this out of love. He asked Rev. Jin Man Kwak to resign from all public missions, separate from Hyun Jin Nim, and to work in his assigned country of Mongolia.http://www.familyfed.org/members/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2165:reflections-on-our-current-course-and-the-turning-point-thatoccurred-in-brazil-&catid=99:national&Itemid=376

Who wrote or gave the message from spirit world?I saw a copy once but I can not find it anymore. Isn't it strange though that the "spirit world" said HJN should be in charge of UPF but within months they took that away too. It seems that the spirit world message was written by Dr. Yong and Peter Kim, but it is uncertain if it was their idea or someone else’s direction. Dr Yong or maybe spelled Dr Yang the old CD from N. America. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=48

Rev. Shin may want to say that is against True Parents. Rev. Shin would say that the son planned rebellion against his parents. Needless to say, this kind of accusation is nothing new. It has been repeated again and again from a long time ago by the group who wanted to kick out HJN from True Family. That group even prepared that “Spirit World Message” and attacked HJN at Cheon Jeong Won in Sokcho in early March, 2009. When HJN had difficulty in accepting that message, they managed to have the proclamation of 1 year suspension from the public activities given to him, which was for him like a cruel punishment. http://whatisonthemoon.tumblr.com/page/6  May or June 2009True Parents recommend changes to UCI board True Parents name two people whom they recommend as additional members of the UCI board July 9, 2009Attempt to follow True Parents' recommendation thwarted Mr. Joo and Mr. Kim call a board meeting to have the two persons recommended by True Parents added to the board. The other three members of the board don't join the conference call. Mr. Joo and Mr. Kim are left without a quorum. WASHINGTON TIMESHyun Jin Nim, with the former CEO Mr. M, had been striving to make it profitable and self-sustainable by 2013 through restructuring, and collecting donations from renowned conservatives. Under Hyun Jin Nim’s leadership, The Washington Times cut down on the need of outside funding from $5 million to $3 million. Mr. Solomon’s only contribution was editing the newspaper. However, when the funding was ceased in July 2009 and the official letter was sent in September, the only choice left for the WT was corporate restructuring. When an employer lays-off an employee, the Federal law (WARN Act) requires the employer to give a notice to the employee and clients at least two months in advance. But then, Mr. M refused to give the notice, believing that Father would certainly send the funding as the owner of the WT. Hyun Jin Nim’s policy is to never put True Parents into any legal trouble. Thus Hyun Jin Nim had no option other than dismissing Mr. M because he was in fact claiming that Father, who is the founder and supporter of the WT, was the owner who had legal responsibilities.http://www.unification.net/nikolaus.beutl/20100610.html July 31,2009Special UCI Board meeting called

Hyun Jin Nim calls a special board meeting for August 2, and UCI counsel Dan Gray sends the notice. No purpose is given. Mr. Gray says he does not know the purpose. Aug. 2, 2009Kim and Joo removed from UCI board Hyun Jin Nim at the special meeting calls for the removal first of Mr. Kim, which passes, and then for the removal of Mr. Joo, which also passes. Board now has just three members --- Hyun Jin Nim, Mr. Sommer and Mr. Perea.True Parents were not consulted and did not approve the removal of Mr. Kim and Mr. Joo from the UCI board. Mid-Aug. 2009Changes made to boards of Washington Times and NWC Mr. Joo and Thomas McDevitt are removed from The Washington Times board. Apparently, Jonathan Slevin and Richard Wojcik are added around this time. True Parents were not consulted on these changes.Mr. Joo (and maybe Mr. McDevitt) are also removed from the board of NWC LLC, which is the parent company of The Washington Times and a subsidiary of UCI. At some point, Mr. Slevin becomes the sole director of NWC LLC. True Parents were not consulted on these changes. Oct. 26, 2009UPF directors given statement to sign Directors of UPF are belatedly requested to sign a written consent form in lieu of a special board meeting to appoint Hyun Jin Nim as co-chairman of UPF. The consent form is dated July 3, 2009. Without any funding, the UCI asked the church through Mr. J to take over the Washington Times on Oct.2009. This request was rejected by Mr. J, who replied by saying what they wanted was the UCI and not the Washington Times. Amidst those difficulties, the Washington Times started its restructuring in December. However, this would require a large sum of money starting with the payment for unemployment allowance. As such, at the end of December, Hyun Jin Nim wrote a letter to Father and presented a proposal saying, “Since it is not Father’s wish to close the Washington Times down, we plan to reduce the loss from $36 million to $8 million by decreasing the number of employees from 380 to 110 and turn the printed newspaper into multi-media,” and asked for funds to conduct the restructuring. http://www.unification.net/nikolaus.beutl/20100610.html What kind of organizations are under the jurisdiction of the UCI? What belongs to the UCI? UCI has many businesses. It’s a sensitive topic because it’s a non-for-profit. You really are included from having many businesses that jeopardize your non-for-profit status. It does have a lot of entities such as True World Foods, you’ve heard about that. US Properties. Won Up. Washington Times. Washington Times Aviation. That’s a sensitive topic and I cannot go into details. But, the asset size of UCI is very, very significant. And, what is happening now is that Hyun Jin Nim is selling off assets. He is selling off assets…http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=76774838423&topic=9620 One of Moon's children, Justin Moon, who was chosen by his father to run many of the church's Asian businesses, has slashed the newspaper's annual subsidy, forcing the paper's executives, led by Moon's eldest son, Preston Moon, to search for deep pockets elsewhere. Meanwhile, the newspaper has hacked its newsroom staff by more than half, from 225 in 2002 down to about 70 people, raised the paper's price and deliberately shrunk its circulation to cut costs, shed its metro and sports sections, and fired or pushed out several top executives, including its publisher earlier this week. Several reporters said most of the staffers are seeking to leave.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/04/30/AR Nov. 4, 2009"Separate GPF foundation" declared Hyun Jin Nim distributes a letter to church leaders, indicating he will carry forward with GPF, not as a UPF project but as a separate movement in its own right. This was not approved by True Parents.In tendering his resignation as UPF co-chairman, he writes the GPF series "will have no formal or legal association with FFWPU. Rather, a separate GPF foundation is being established for this purpose. Upon hearing that Hyun Jin Nim is determined to hold GPF events in the Philippines, True Parents send Cheong Shik Yong with instructions that Philippines members should not support or associate with GPF in any way. Later, UCI representatives are aware of and support Mr. Yong being placed on a Philippine government blacklist, and he is barred from entering the Philippines. Mr. Yong was True Parents' appointed representative to the region, and his exclusion from the Philippines represented an attempt to circumvent True Parents' authority.  Nov. 8, 2009TWT loses Joo and McDevitt Mr. Joo and Mr. McDevitt are terminated by The Washington Times. True Parents were not consulted on this move.  “Mr. Joo had returned part of the money specifically the amount of 21 million dollars to Mission Foundation. As the president of the Washington Times Aviation, Mr. Joo had decided to shift the monies over to Korea because he felt that the funds were going to get misused.” Here, he had omitted that Mr. Joo had been dismissed on November 8 th, 2009, and next day, Mr. Joo had transferred the money without any authority from the Washington Times Aviation USA LLC (WTA USA.) The motivation was, as it has been stated here, “he felt that the funds were going to get misused.” Without a doubt, this is criminal conduct and the WTA (Washington Times Aviation) has asked him to return the money a number of times. Then the WTA sent out an official notice on November 18th and asked Mr. Joo and the Mission Foundation to return the money. As Mr. P also admits, “Mother is the legal representative of the Mission Foundation,” and thus the notice included True Mother’s name as one of the recipients of this notice. When the money was not returned after repeated requests, the WTA put a hold on the bank account (a provisional attachment) on December 8th so that it would not be misappropriated. Of course, this provisional attachment does not constitute a law suit. It is a procedure to protect the asset from being misused. If the responsible party (the Mission Foundation) objects this, they may request the attachment to be suspended or cancelled.http://www.unification.net/nikolaus.beutl/20100610.html …his question is what is our strategy to counter the lawsuit against Mission Foundation? It’s simple. I told their attorneys, “Just dismiss the suit, I’ll give you the money back.” You never asked me. You just file a suit. I said, “Sir, have you ever took the time to call me once?” “Oh, no, we have to work with our outside counsel.” I said, “It’s not too late. Dismiss the suit against Mission Foundation and its legal representative, Hak Ja Han Moon!” Simple. I haven’t got a, they are now moving on it. Instead, they file a lawsuit against Mr. Joo in Maryland for thirty one million dollars. And what does his counsel do? They are notorious for using the media to destroy their opponents. Korea Times article, everything was leaked to Korea Times, in New York, vilifying Mr. Joo as a fraud. It’s very, very discouraging. It’s very discouraging. http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=76774838423&topic=9620 Washington Times editorial page editor Richard Miniter is filing a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission against the paper today, alleging discrimination based on

age, disability, and religion -- being forced to attend a Unification Church mass wedding -- and he will ask the government to enjoin the Times' assets, his lawyer tells TPM. http://tpmlivewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/11/washington-times-faces-eeoc-complaint-from-editor-richard-miniter.php So Hyun Jin Nim’s folks are saying, “We just wanna freeze the monies that Dr. Joo wired back to Korea.” So I got together with one of the UCI counsel. “Please sir, please dismiss the suit,” to which member attorney replied, “Everyone is fair game.” Everyone is fair game. I said, “No sir. Mother is not fair game.” There is a speculation that Hyun Jin Nim didn’t know it, didn’t know that the Korean law firm was going to move so forcefully. Well then, dismiss it! The order of attachment was issued in December 8th. I marched down to Rev. Kwak’s office. I said, “Dismiss this!” The order of attachment was sent, faxed over to Rev. Kwak. What’s today? Nothing has been done. http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=76774838423&topic=9620  MY questions:

1. 1.       What is the 21 million dollars in the Mission fund, illegally transferred to them from the WTA going to be used for? Lawyers fees? Airplane rides back and forth? Good causes?

2. 2.       Does the outside lawsuits against the WT by former outside employees put TP in jeopardy once again for a court suit?

  Nov. 9, 2009TAI loses Joo and SteinbronnMr. Joo and Richard Steinbronn are terminated from their positions in the TAI group. True Parents were not consulted on this move. A brother named Richard Steinbronn is an attorney. He had been working for UCI as its in-house counsel until he was dismissed. He had actually filed this lis pendens. Those were actually liens place on real estate so that he cannot sell them off. Yes. He’s taken the initiative to file this lis pendens. But, he doesn’t, he has an issue with standing. The court asks him, “Who are you? Who are you to file lis pendens?” So, he’s having a difficult period with our legal challenges that are difficult, difficult challenges. Yes, we are trying to solve this problem. Selling off assets and leasing our properties, for example, Father has a house in Washington DC, members who have been guardians, custodians of the Jefferson House, were requested to move out, so that he could lease Father’s house for five thousand dollars a month. http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=76774838423&topic=9620  By the way Steinbronn's case was thrown out of court by the judge. It was dismissed with prejudice,which is another way of saying that it was laughed out of court. http://whatisfatherslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=25  Nonetheless, pursuant to True Father’s directives, Japan had faithfully wired monies in support of the Washington Times. “Oh, we never got it.” Yes, you did. The massive layoffs – the Washington Times is really the face of our True Parents in the United States! It is reduced to nothing. It has currently eighty employees. Previously, there were three hundred fifty. Did he get Father’s permission? No. Mr. McDevitt, the president and the publisher of the Washington Times, Father’s representative, was escorted out by a private security. The same with Mr. Cooperrider, the CFO. Same with Mr. Dan Fefferman who had been using the offices at the Washington Times to address the kidnapping issue in Japan. He was also escorted out.There is the Washington Times Foundation; Father’s autobiography, published by the Washington Times Foundation. Hyun Jin Nim directed the corporate secretary, “You must dismiss Mr. Joo from the Board of Directors position of the Washington Times Foundation.” This gentleman refused. He was requested to resign. So, he did. And then, Dr. Joo gets a legal notice from the UCI’s counsel. “Cease and desist from using the Washington Times Foundation name. It belongs to us.” Dr. Joo and Dr. Kim get a legal notice, as well, from UCI’s counsel, one of the big shot law firms in DC whose primary practice is criminal defense. Why does Hyun Jin Nim retain

the services of criminal defense law firm? They are allegations of self-feelings. I will not go into details, but there are very questionable practices, financial practices that’s going to get everybody into trouble.I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to be so serious. It is very serious. This is – we got to bring everybody into account that there’s misuse of funds if we do not internally remediate. The government will enforce it. We aren’t above the law. Well, I am actually. It’s very embarrassing that we are actually going through this, but I guess, it’s a necessity. http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=76774838423&topic=9620  Nov. 18, 2009Threat issued to Mission Foundation Through its legal representatives, UCI sends a demand letter to Mission Foundation / Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon for the return of money wired by Mr. Joo on behalf of Washington Times Aviation to Mission Foundation in Korea. UCI counsels state in their letter they will institute civil lawsuit and criminal prosecution in the event the funds are used or removed from Mission Foundation's account, pending resolution of the dispute. November 19, 2009True Father in HDH makes a statement about Rev. Kwak, and Hyun Jin, and their positions. However these notes have all but disappeared from the Internet except for references in different members writings that seem to indicate True Father wanted to reinstate the two to their positions.  MY question: Where are the original notes and video so that we can see exactly what was said?   November 20, 2009Peter Kim announces at HDH that members should not take True Father’s words about Hyun Jin literally, but like we do for the Bible verses supporting the Divine Principle, we must look for the hidden meaning. http://www.familyfed.org/members/index. ... Itemid=432 After much prayer and jung-sung, Hyun Jin nim came to meet True Father after stopping public activities for one year in 2009. Before he was allowed to meet his own Father, leaders presented him with a document to sign. The document stated that Hyun Jin nim had to leave UCI and stop all public activities for 3 years and he had to sign before he could meet Father. Based on his conscience, he made the decision not to sign because he felt it would not be God’s desires or True Parent’s desires. This is one example where leaders stood between father and son. I doubt True Parents know anything about that document. http://whatisonthemoon.tumblr.com/page/6 Nov. 30, 2009Litigation hold letter for all communication with True Parents A litigation hold letter sent by UCI counsel Zuckerman Spaeder to Mr. Joo and Mr. Kim request that they preserve all communications between themselves and "Sun Myung Moon, Hak Ja Han" and others. Dec. 7, 2009Aircraft ceases to be available for True Parents' use 

Mr. Perea demands payment from Mission Foundation for use of the charter services. Without payment, Mr. Perea states the plane will not be dispatched for use by True Parents.   MY question: If the plane is owned by a corporation, does demanding that the plane be used for private purposes of the TP without payment put the TP in legal liability to pay taxes on it?

In fact, John Solomon received written offers to sell the newspaper to his investment group.The possible sale of The Washington Times was never approved by True Parents.The contemplated sale never took place. It is important to note, however, that the attempt to sell the paper to third parties came in the face of clear expressions of intent by donors in Japan to continue supporting The Washington Times.

WTA USA and TAI file a civil suit against Mr. Joo for $21 million, regarding the allegedly

unauthorized transfer of funds from WTA USA to Mission Foundation in early November 2009. WTA USA and TAI allege fraud and various other types of misconduct. This suit against Mr. Joo was not approved by True Parents. the UCI has decided to bring a law suit against Mr. J who transferred the money without proper authorization. The UCI has never brought any law suit against True Mother. If the WTA takes no action, then the U.S. government and the government of Korea would surely start investigating the UCI and WTA regarding this suspicious transfer.http://www.unification.net/nikolaus.beutl/20100610.html A company with links to The Washington Times has sued the newspaper's former chairman for $31 million, accusing him of perpetrating a massive financial fraud one day after he was fired. The lawsuit, filed Jan. 11 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, targets Douglas D.M.

Prior to removal, he is given advance notice, an opportunity to see the basis for removal for cause and and an opportunity to object.

Causes include not adhering to the directives of and defying the directives of the leadership of the UC, and the unauthorized removal of Mr. Joo and Mr. Kim from the UCI board in Aug. 2009. 

This removal was approved by True Parents. Feb. 12, 2010Times Foundation told to cease and desist Hyun Jin Nim, who is a director of The Washington Times Foundation, sends an extensive information request to TWT Foundation via counsel at Jones Day. Later, TWT Foundation receives a cease and desist letter from Mr. Gray. So, they need a scapegoat. So they use me, because I have been attending True Parents all the time there as a special assistant to True Father and Mother. Most of the reports go through me so, most of them I read them, to them directly. But there are times that I cannot read word by word because of the timing, because of the reasons Father’s — you know — feeling, and all kinds of reasons. So sometimes I summarize and give the report to them. Things like that. So I was included. And Hyung Jin Nim and Kook Jin Nim were included.

Early Mar. 2010Sun Jin Nim removed from CC board Sun Jin Nim is notified she is no longer a board member of UCI-controlled Central City, a major shopping and transportation hub in Seoul.

Her removal was not approved by True Parents.  Your "Sons Rise in a Moon Shadow" suffered from a number of false and self-serving quotes. You quote Kook-Jin (Justin) Moon: "'We assisted in the management [of Central City and the construction firm] for a year or two,' but then 'Unification Church International said they wanted to manage.' They 'were not profitable,' he says, but 'I made them very successful.'"This is not only an example of grandstanding by Kook-Jin Moon, it is also blatantly untrue. Here are the facts: Kook-Jin was allowed to help oversee the company from 2005 to 2007. During that period, despite steady revenue growth as a result of the work of previous management, operating margins were flat at best and the net income declined every year.Kook-Jin also claims that "he [his older brother Hyun-Jin (Preston) Moon] liked the companies becoming profitable." Since 2007 we have created an increase in net profit and corporate value every year, which is a matter of record, not opinion.

The company's name is changed from "Unification Church International" to "UCI." It revises its 1980 purposes so as to remove all references to supporting Unification Churches worldwide and all references to advancing Divine Principle.

The only reference to Unification in the newly amended UCI purposes is with regard to advancing the teachings of the Unification Movement. But UCI purposes do not include advancing or supporting the Unification Movement itself.

Also, upon dissolution, UCI can now donate its assets to foreign corporations having similar purposes.These changes were not approved by True Parents.  April 27, 2010New UCI board is revealed The certificate amending UCI's name and purposes is signed April 27, 2010, by Hyun Jin Nim as UCI president and by Daniel Gray as UCI secretary.

This board does not have True Parents' approval.  April 30, 2010Post confirms Times is for sale

 Washington Post quotes Mr. Chiaia in an article as stating that The Washington Times is for sale, and that the legacy of Founder is to be continued by potential buyers. Mr. Chiaia's statement confirms the rumors that the paper had been for sale. May 30 and 31, 2010Turmoil in Sao Paulo

On Sunday, May 30, 2010, Hyun Jin Nim proceeded with a group of followers into a worship service in progress at the Brazil Headquarters Church, went up onto the stage and took over the pulpit. Video recorded at the scene shows some of his followers pumping their fists as if some great victory had been achieved.

True Parents' appointed representatives to the continent and the nation, who had been leading the service at the pulpit, were forcibly removed from the stage so that Hyun Jin Nim could speak. 

At a Hoon Dok Hoe the following morning, True Parents' appointed representatives were subjected to violence and ridicule in front of the Brazilian members.  

Meanwhile, Hyun Jin Nim purported to have placed one of his own supporters in the postion of president of the Brazil Church. June 5, 2010 Proclamation Official Memo of Tongilgyo International-World Mission Headquarters announced that TPs announced a special proclamation during Hoon Dok Hae in Cheon Jeong Gung dated June 5, 2010. We know, over the years, and to all photo reports from ipeacetv.com, TPs conduct daily HDH with members in a hall. Instead, the video shows the declaration was written in a bedroom. Why was it not in HDH hall? Was it really took place during HDH? Or was it before HDH? Or after HDH? Why did Tongilgyo International-World Mission Headquarters announce in the official memo reporting that proclamation was announced during HDH which without proper chairs, table and microphone prepared for TPs? http://whatisonthemoon.tumblr.com/post/710228946/how-about-the-part-on-the-proclamation-video-where-rm

Anonymous asked: Not only was the proclamation written in the bedroom, but the video tape conveniently only shows the first page after it was already written. Unlike the second page, we are unable to see the discussion and prompting of the mom and son to write that first page. Is there any tape available of the actual discussion leading up to the first page, where he proclaimed heretic and destroyer?. http://whatisonthemoon.tumblr.com/page/4 I listened to the Korean: RM asked if it was the year 2000. Hak Ja Han repeated to RM 6 times that it is the year 2010.  Then even after hearing that, he wrote the year 2000. Hak Ja Han said, “Eh? No! Not the year 2000! It’s the year 2010!” So then he scribbled out and wrote over it to correct it, from 2000 to 2010. You can see the dark scribble on the lower left hand corner of the first page. Senility, or dementia, according to Wikipedia: Especially in the later stages of the condition, affected persons may be disoriented in time (not knowing what day of the week, day of the month, or even what year it is). A note on the June 5th Proclamation  My question: Why doesn’t the Family Federation release the full tape of the proclamation to settle this issue once and for all, from the time TF was speaking about doing this, in full, with sound and translation? Although America cashed in big with the “violence”, the “violence” argument did not make it too big in countries like Korea. A big portion of members actually think Rev. Shin deserved what he got (I’m not saying it’s right, just saying how it’s perceived). They read the letters and reports Rev.

Shin wrote and are in disagreement with him because they read other reports that paint a different story. So now Rev. Shin is actually afraid of going to Korea because so many people see him as the perpetrator of division in the True Family. His reports were distorting what really took place. Now, the South American CD who goes to all Church events says he won’t be attending the True Day of All things event in Korea with True Parents because of other engagements. Sure he has other plans. His “false” report received such a negative reception in Korea that members are actually angry at him. Don’t believe me? Go to this site which has around 1000 registered church members and read for yourself what people are saying (it’s all in Korean): http://cafe.daum.net/W-CARPKorea. Not all Korean members think that Rev. Shin’s reporting is false, but enough of them do and showed such resistance that Hyung Jin Nim had to cancel the video campaign against his older brother in Korea. Which brings us to the point that the video campaign in the US, supposedly endorsed by TP and enforced by Hyung Jin Nim, is probably, actually not endorsed by TP. Because if it were endorsed by TP, then why would Hyung Jin Nim cancel it in Korea? If it’s not endorsed by TP, then why say that it is? The church in Korea got swamped with calls asking to call off the video campaign that it had to stop it. http://whatisonthemoon.tumblr.com/page/4 The latest Jackson lawsuit is specifically targeting the mother of the pop family, with the claimants hoping to get their hands on any money paid out to Katherine Jackson by the Michael Jackson estate. Mrs Jackson is being sued by a South Korean newspaper called The Segye Times in relation to a Jackson family tour that never happened back in the early nineties. According to US gossip man Roger Friedman, the Segye Times is owned by the Unification Church, the sometimes controversial religious organisation headed up by Korean religious leader Sun Myung Moon and often referred to as the Moonies. The Moonies sued the Jackson clan to get their money back. Michael Jackson settled the specific litigation against him in 1992, but the rest of the family failed to negotiate a deal so the whole dispute went to court in 1994. According to Freidman, Katherine and Joe Jackson basically ignored the litigation, and therefore a judgement was made against them to the tune of $4 million. When they failed to pay up, the Moonies made moves to seize the Jackson parent's home. At that point the couple did respond, in that they transferred ownership of their property to Michael, thus putting it out of the reach of the bailiff. The Jackson family's finances have been in such a state of disarray ever since the Moonies haven't made much of an effort to claim their cash back. But now, with Katherine Jackson a key beneficiary of the Michael Jackson estate, which has, according to reports, generated nearly a billion in income in the last year, the Moonies are back for their cash. They have filed legal papers requesting that any pay out from the Jacko estate to Mrs Jackson should come to them to make good the 1994 court judgement in their favour. Though, the claimants say, with sixteen years of interest they are now owed $13 million rather than the $4 million they were rewarded back then. http://newsblog.thecmuwebsite.com/post/Moonies-sue-Katherine-Jackson-for-thirteen-million.aspx  My final question: Since both sides claim to feel so deeply for the Japanese members who literally sold their blood, their inheritance, their family homes and their future for this movement, why is so much money being wasted, just in legal fees alone?
