WORLD HUNGER VS. ARMS BUILDUP - Dan C Taylor - January 1983

Dan C Taylor

A conventional arms race as dangerous, if not more so, than the nuclear arms race between the United States and the Soviet Union. Yet there is a paradox in all of this. While nations spend enormous sums on weapons, millions of human beings are malnourished or starving. Agricultural time bombs continue to tick away, periodically exploding in isolated, but devastating droughts and famines. What's behind this global conventional arms buildup? What is it costing the poor? More important, where is it leading us all? - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
