UCG often quotes
The Washington Times in their writings.
The Washington Times is a far right newspaper. But UCG's writers never bother to mention to their readers what
The Washington Times is. Both
PCG and
LCG treat The Washington Times in the same way.
The Washington Times was founded in 1982 by
a certain controversial religious movement originating from Korea. This religious movement from Korea teaches
many things contrary to UCG's teachings. It has often been described by ex-members and non-members as a cult. Both
Rick Ross and
Steven Hassan have much information regarding this controversial religious movement originating from Korea.
This link between
The Washington Times and this particular religious movement from Korea is never mentioned by UCG.

Edward Yardeni, chief economist for the international investment firm of
Deutsche Morgan Grenfel, predicts a 70 percent chance of a serious
global recession. Said Mr. Yardeni: “If we have everything fixed in the
United States [highly unlikely], but major disruptions in Europe and
total calamity in Asia and Latin America, weÕre going to be affected in a
very, very adverse fashion” (Washington Times). (John Ross Schroeder,
Broadening out this problem, the potential threat of a rogue, long-range
missile attack from any of two dozen Third World states is a major
problem for future Western security. As a feature article in
The Washington Times
advises: “Prudence dictates that we deploy a national missile defense,
before, not after, rogue states acquire missiles capable of destroying
American cities.” Many are the problems that confront the United States. (John Ross Schroeder, Still a Troubled and Dangerous World,
July 1, 1999.)
Wrote journalist Cheryl Wetzstein of
The Washington Times:
“Marriage in America has gone from better to worse, with fewer couples
marrying and fewer still saying their lives together are wedded bliss,
according to a report released on July 1 . . . As marriage has faltered,
rates of divorce, cohabitation and bearing children out of wedlock have
soared to record levels.” (John Ross Schroeder and Scott Ashley, World News and Trends: Anglo-American Marriage Trends,
August 15, 1999.)
The modern approach, it is argued, allows a woman more control, more
freedom and less subjection to men.
Included in the report were the results of a survey of a group of young
adults about their views of living together and marriage. All were
single, working 20-somethings from New Jersey.
“[Most] of them thought marriage should occur [only after] there are
children, and children should come after a house is bought and a couple
has a good annual income-around $75,000 in the women’s views… [The]
young people saw… cohabitation as a good way to test compatibility,
detect character strengths and weaknesses, and arrange certain household
economies…. Women preferred short-term cohabitation, saying they could
determine the man’s suitability for marriage in a few months. In
contrast, many of the man said they could cohabit indefinitely”
(“Cohabitation No Formula for Future Bliss in Marriage,” by Cheryl
Wetzstein, The Washington Times).
(Cecil Maranville, Divorce Revolution Spawns Cohabitation Generation,
September 4, 1999)
Psychologist Wade Horn, in his
Washington Times column of July 6, 1999, takes issue with the
APA's
reasoning and conclusion. “The authors begin their first argument by
stating that their 'research experience has led us to conceptualize
fathering in the way that is very different from the neoconservative
[read: anyone who thinks fathers matter—Dr. Horn's
comment] perspective.' (Cecil Maranville, From Father Knows Best to "No Father Is Best",
January 29, 2000.)
A primary factor is a pervasive decline in respect for the rule of law.
As The Washington Times put it: “Just as the 20th century was tripped up
by ideologies smoldering beneath the surface, the 21st century is
threatened by the decline of law.” (John Ross Schroeder, World News and Trends: A world lacking in law and order,
June 15, 2000.)
In fact, a renewed military alliance is being forged as confirmed by the
news that Russia is readying cruise-missile ships for delivery to
China. “The
SS-N-22 is the most dangerous
anti-ship missile in the Russian, and now the Chinese fleet,” said Rep.
Dana Rohrabacher, a California Republican (
The Washington Times
). He continued with the assessment that “our Navy admittedly has scant
ability to defend against this 200-kiloton nuclear-capable weapon.” John Ross Schroeder and Melvin Rhodes, World News and Trends: A new chapter in Sino-Russian relations,
October 15, 2000.)
According to an article in The Washington Times, "most Americans believe the Bible is more factual than newspapers, but find their daily newspaper easier to read."(John Ross Schroeder and Melvin Rhodes, World News and Trends: Understanding the Bible in America,
April 15, 2001.)
The tragic fruits of not heeding our Creator's advice are apparent all around us. Suzanne Fields, columnist for
The Washington Times , recently reviewed a book called
The Broken Hearth
by William Bennett. She summed up an aspect of his worrying assessment
of our social plight today: “Those who do not marry are having sexual
relations at an earlier age, and contracting sexually transmitted
diseases at much higher rates, cohabiting in unprecedented numbers, and
having a record number of children out of wedlock.” (The perils of going it alone,
February 15, 2002.)
Let me read you some recent news items from the Washington Times…
"A petition has been placed before the US Congress requesting the
removal of the words ‘In God We Trust.’ People using United States
currency are denied the right of free speech by repeatedly presenting
this religious motto and slogan…"
And it goes on to say they find it particularly inappropriate to
slander the Constitution by including religious graffiti, such as the
motto ‘In God We Trust.’
Another article from the Washington Times…
"Government officials in states including Indiana, Kansas, Colorado
and Kentucky have lost attempts to display the ten commandments in
public." (John Elliot, Society And You,
March 15, 2002.)
Under the headline “Synagogues Burn as Europeans Rage,” a
Washington Times
article added, “In Britain, which takes pride in a 'multicultural'
society, police have logged at least 15 anti-Jewish episodes this month,
including eight physical assaults, synagogues daubed with racist
slogans and hate mail sent to prominent figures among the nation's
300,000 Jews. One was an assault on a Jewish theological student, David
Myers. He was reading a book of Psalms aboard a London bus when he was
stabbed 27 times.
“The attacks prompted Jonathan Sacks, Britain's chief rabbi, to say,
'Anti-Semitism is on the rise in Europe as a whole.' He blamed Islamic
extremists for 'whipping up' sentiment against Jews in Britain and
throughout the Continent” (April 22, 2002). (Darris McNeely, The Rising Specter of Anti-Semitism,
May 1, 2002.)
Today’s Washington Times has a piece by Frank Gaffney, Jr which shows
how the United States has changed its tack on Palestine and is now fully
supporting the new Palestinian President as a man of peace, a key
player in a road map to peace. (Darris McNeely, Israel and the "Oslo Syndrome",
June 1, 2005.)
Iran could contribute greatly to terrorism, not only in Iraq , but also
in Europe and America. “A top Ahmadinejad officer, Brig. General
Mohammad Kossari, who heads the political watchdog, or Security Bureau,
of Iran's armed forces, recently taunted the
U.S.
when he bragged 'we have identified all the weak points of our enemies'
and have sufficient cannon fodder—i.e., suicide operation
volunteers—'ready to strike at these sensitive locations.' Iranian
television recently broadcast an animated film for Iranian children
glorifying suicide bombers” (Arnaud de Borchgrave, “Later Than We
Think,”
The Washington Times, Feb. 6, 2006). (Cecil Maranville, How Serious a Threat Could Iran Pose?,
March 1, 2006.)
Washington Times Editorial Page Editor Tony Blankley’s new book “The West’s Last Chance” highlights the growing international threat from radical Islam. (Melvin Rhodes, Is This Really The West's Last Chance?,
March 29, 2006.)
Arnold de Bourchgrave does a good job of laying out the realities regarding Iraq in this Washington Times piece . The growing American cries to withdraw its forces altogether or to divide Iraq along religious-ethnic grounds (Kurds-Sunni-Shiite) are simplistic on the surface and they portend catastrophic consequences for the U.S. , as well as for the Iraq region . The latter includes potential civil wars in neighboring Arab countries, according to Jordan 's King Abdullah. (Darris McNeely, No Easy Way to Get Out of Iraq,
November 29, 2006.)
Writing in the
Washington Times Arnaud de Borchgrave shows this has been apart of Chinese military planning for some time.... (Cecil Maranville, Chinese Star Wars,
February 5, 2007.)
Venezuela supplies 14% of U.S. oil imports. Any effort to increase the
worldwide price of oil, which Hugo Chavez actively encourages, directly
effects our pocketbook. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson has a good
background piece in today's
Washington Times . (Darris McNeely, Are We Losing Latin America?,
March 7, 2007.)
American journalist Suzanne Fields summarized Rafsanjani's simple
mathematical equation: “In a nuclear exchange with Israel his country
might lose 15 million people which would amount to a small 'sacrifice'
from among the billion Muslims worldwide in exchange for the lives of 5
million Israeli Jews” (“Confronting the New Anti-Semitism,”
The Washington Times, July 25, 2004). (John Ross Schroeder, Can Israel Survive?,
June 9, 2008.)
An article in
The Washington Times (“Youth Volunteerism at 50
Year High, Study Finds,” Nov. 20, 2002) noted that among teens and
young adults, volunteerism and a desire to serve by helping others in
the community and the world is at its highest level in more than 50
years. (Doug Horchak, The Greatest Humanitarian Cause,
June 6, 2010.)
Recently, Wei Jingsheng, a Chinese dissident who spent 19 years as a political prisoner in China, told
The Washington Times
he thought China's warning that Taiwan might not get a second chance
for peace if they elected Chen was a sign that China had already decided
to invade Taiwan. (Mario Seiglie, The China-Taiwan Tinderbox,
July 23, 2010.)
August 24, 2011 The Washington Times reported: “China's military buildup
has made impressive gains that pushed the Communist Party-controlled
People's Liberation Army closer to matching modern militaries, according
to the Pentagon's annual report to Congress made public Wednesday. (
August 27, 2011. From a UCG affiliated blog.)
Here’s a portion of the book’s synopsis. You know, on the back cover.
Where have all the grown-ups gone?, she asks. That is the provocative
question Washington Times syndicated columnist Diana West asks as she
looks at America today. (Peter Eddington, Are You Going to Grow Up?,
March 8, 2014.)
And as Middle East expert Daniel Pipes wrote in a
Washington Times
piece earlier this year, “Efforts to overthrow greedy tyrants lead to
yet-worse ideological tyrants (as in Iran in 1979) or to anarchy (as in
Libya and Yemen)” (“The Middle East Mightily Resists Efforts to Prod
Modernization,” Jan. 23, 2014). (John Ross Schroeder and Peter Eddington, Searching for Eden in the Middle East,
May 29, 2014.)
A recent
Washington Times article described American public schools as
“in a free fall,” with
U.S.
schools now ranking 29th in the world. This from the nation that
earlier put man on the moon and has for decades led the world in finding
cures for killer diseases. (Michael Kelley, 2015 - A Year of Triumph or Trial for America?,
March 9, 2015.)
Former
CIA director James Woolsey and Peter Vincent Pry, who served on the Congressional
EMP Commission, have been outspoken about the
EMP threat. Woolsey relates in a
Washington Times article: “The Congressional
EMP Commission estimated a nationwide blackout lasting one year could kill
anywhere from two of every three Americans by a low estimate up to nine of 10 Americans by starvation and social disruption.” This is astoundingly serious and sobering! (Tom Robinson, Iran and the Threat of EMP Attack,
November 3, 2015.)
