---
The Unification Church, led by [[Sun-Myung Moon|Sun Myung Moon]], supported anti-Communist causes including the [[Contras|Contra]] war through its political arm, the CAUSA Foundation. The church's anti-Communist ideology aligned with the Reagan administration's Central America policy.[^1]
### Political Activities
The Unification Church operated as part of the broader network of private organizations that supported the Contra cause. Through its [[CAUSA|CAUSA Foundation]], the church worked with Latin American anti-Communist movements and maintained ties to the same [[Central Intelligence Agency]]-connected circles that supported the Contras. The church's activities illustrated how private anti-Communist organizations supplemented official U.S. support for the Contra war, creating a network of political and financial support that operated alongside the drug trafficking and arms smuggling operations.[^2]
