Like it or not, he had idealistic convictions and never wavered from those beliefs. I admire him for that. Thanks for giving us an interesting glimpse of his Moscow environment and background.

MY SILENT WAR by Kim Philby: "During my youth in the 1930s two paths were presented to me---the rank appeasement of nazis by PMs Stanley Baldwin and Neville Chamberlain or the opposition of USSR.  But for the power of the USSR and the Communist idea, the whole world would now be ruled by hitler and hirohito. It is a matter of great pride to me that I was invited at so early an age, to play my infinitesimal part in building up that power. How, where and when I became a member of the Soviet intelligence service is a matter to myself and my comrades. I will only say that when the proposition was made to me, I did not hesitate. One does not look twice at an offer of enrollment in an elite force."

You missed out the most important word when describing Philby. Traitor...he was a traitor to his country. That is unforgivable in my view
