Mitrokhin Archive II, The: The KGB and the World

If you want to understand everything that is going on in the world right now, it is imperative to see the hand of the Kremlin in most of the disinformation campaigns that are gaining around the world. The networks have been out there and remain out there. As such, this book is a great way to learn how to see the long lasting impact of the remnants of the evil empire that has returned with the extreme ferociousness of a cancerous metastases in our society.

Inside approach of the mysterious world of KGB. Very interesting to have an "Eastern" point of view.

This book illustrates an important part of the world's history and the role of security services guiding the international politics.

Ok Thanks.

I have not purchased this book, but ... its contents appear to be the same as in Andrew/Mitrokhin's book entitled "The World Was Going Our Way," which I do own; "Mitrokhin Archive II" and "The World Was Going Our Way" were both published in 2005 and each has 676 pages; each has chapters covering Latin America, Middle East, Asia and Africa. The titles of these books are different and the cover design is different, which might suggest they are two different books. They seem to be the same to me; please correct this review if I am wrong.

When former KGB man Vasili Mitrokhin defected to the UK he took with him the most extensive archive of intelligence received from any source ever. This book is a must-read for all those of you who enjoyed the earlier Part-1. This second part reveals the full extent of the KGB's links in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East. This book exposes the extent of the KGB's connections with many world leaders including Castro, Allende, Nasser, Saddam, Mengistu etc. A bit tedious to read, but definitely worth the effort.

Gosh - what a tangle web we we when we first try to deceive, incredible detail and outlandish truths how the Politically driven Secret Services socialise their doctrine and carve the territories for selfish gain - a riveting read.

A must read book Specially chapter 17 ...

Super interessant!

Le livre est arrivé dans un emballage souple, de type pastique ample, sans aucune protection pour le livre, sans carton pour protéger les coins. Comme c'était un colis international, il est sans doute passé par de multiples mains peu soucieuse de protéger le colis et de manipuler avec soins

Has a lot of detail in it. Takes a long time to read. In the end it was worth the money and was a really good book.
