Is Barbed Wire Transferable?

Tom Haines: Why do you think certain military technologies are transferable and other kinds of military technologies aren't? Is it because they're wedded to the society or the system? Or i mean, somebody like victor davis hanson back in the day would have said, it's a cultural question. If you're a technologically advanced civilization, then you're going to have more lethal weaponry - that's always the way. And perhaps one of the unsettling things if you're in the west at the moment is the notion that the industrial age is fading.
