RonaSoviet Strategic Deception & US Vulnerability: A Net Assessment/Patrick J. ParkerNational Review, 10/9/1987 by Williamson Chilton, Jr: In a 1906 column for the Illustrated London News, G.K. Chesterton observed that people have got into their heads an extraordinary idea that English public-school boys & English youth generally are taught to tell the truth. They are taught absolutely nothing of the kind. At no English public school is it even suggested, except by accident, that it is a man's duty to tell the truth. What is suggested is something entirely different: that it is a man's duty not to tell lies. Can anyone on earth believe that if the seeing & telling of the whole truth were really one of the ideals of the English governing class, there could conceivably exist such a thing as the English party system? Why, [that] system is founded upon the principle that half a truth is better than no politics. Somewhere in that paragraph is a lesson for the 20th-century American democrat of either party, the apostle of Global Niceness who believes (for reasons having little in common with the traditional British concept of what a Gentleman Does Not Do) that a crucial portion of the habits by which nations have historically negotiated with one another is alien to the American Way & that our government should not therefore have anything to do with such habits. Thus Andrew Marshall, in his Foreword to Soviet Strategic Deception (Hoover Inst Press, Lexington Bks, Lexington, MA $49), edited by Brian D. Dailey & Patrick J. Parker, notes that "This book deals with a topic that is uncongenial to many people & not a major focus of attention.' For people of this sort, a society like the Soviet Union, whose existence is founded on a colossal lie--a society of which it may be said, as of the late Lillian Hellman (who would doubtless have been flattered by the comparison) that every word it speaks is a lie, including 'and' & 'the'--may be a phenomenological truth, but certainly not a moral one (since what is Moral is always True, & what is True must necessarily be Nice). Besides: if one suspects that the CPSU really has practiced deceit when dealing with its enemies (the Nice word is 'competitors') in the past, is doing so today, & is also engaged in formulating deceit & deception for 20 years into the future, the uncomfortable but inevitable question becomes: What are you going to do about it? & the fact is, of course, that Nice people don't do anything; except act Nice.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
