"My Enemy's Enemy" reveals an alternate history of the post-war world. This is a version of history where, in contrast to what we are all told, fascist ideology prevailed. The story of Klaus Barbie, Nazi torturer, American spy, tool of repressive right wing regimes, is symbolic of the real relationship that the "Western" governments had with fascism and makes us see the world as it is today--and the politicians that inhabit it--in a different way.
