The court found the Unification Church "committed acts in violation of laws and regulations that can be recognized as significantly harming the public welfare.”.

Hmm any other churches like that?

The Unification Church is a bit special. They were the ones who stepped in to fund the Contra death squads in-between the time Congress cut the funds and the CIA setting up their missile deal with Iran.

This was not the first or last Nazi death squad that the Moonies funded. (The leader of the Unification Church was a Korean man named "Reverend Moon".)

The Moonies were part of the post WW2 Rat line, and helped found and fund the World Anti-Communist League. Which was mostly just unleashing death squads.
