Pentagon Papers whistleblower @DanielEllsberg says his political awakening on the Vietnam War included meeting war resisters who chose prison over conscientious objection. He reached a conclusion: “How can I help shorten the war, now that I’m ready to go to prison?” #DNlive
Daniel Ellsberg says he is increasingly convinced Trump is "not bluffing" when he threatens to attack North Korea & Iran. "It would be catastrophic to be at war with Iran, a nation four times the size in population of Iraq… We've never faced up to the human cost of that war."
Daniel Ellsberg's message to potential whistleblowers: "Don't do what I did. Don't wait until the bombs are actually falling, or thousands more have died… Reveal the truth that you know… A war's worth of lives may be at stake." #DNlive
