Description
The Best Enemy Money Can Buy by Antony C. Sutton A detailed examination of Soviet military technology reveals its surprising dependence on Western gifts and trade agreements. Government and corporate records show that the Soviets have received extensive transfers of sensitive technologies, including copper wiring, military trucks, tank technology, missile guidance systems, and even computer hardware. This phenomenon raises questions about the nature of "peaceful trade" with communist nations. Sutton argues that all trade is strategic in the Soviet context, and that the West's efforts to counter Soviet aggression are often self-defeating. The paradox of spending billions on defense against an enemy created and sustained by Western interests is a striking one. Sutton's analysis is based on extensive documentation from government and corporate sources, providing a unique insight into the complex web of international relations and technological exchange that underpins modern warfare.
