Unificationism is a child-like, right-wing ideology originally developed to theologically justify the battle against North Korean communism. These days, it has been used by Moon and his followers to rationalize other right-wing causes.



Its basis is conceptualizing the world as consisting of types of Cain (satanic) and Abel (godly).



Furthermore, Bush's political Manichaeism, bifurcating the world into good and evil, reminds me of the Rev. Sun Myung Moon's unificationism. Since Moon publishes what is perhaps the most powerful conservative daily in the U.S., the Washington Times, and he has made extensive inroads into the Washington political establishment, it would not be inconceivable that he may have had an influence on King George, or the king's royal court, too.
