Daniel Ellsberg, klokkenluider van de Pentagon Papers, over een kernoorlog

Tachtig jaar geleden werd Nagasaki getroffen door een atoombom. In gesprek met De Groene in 2023 waarschuwde Daniel Ellsberg – de klokkenluider van de Pentagon Papers – voor de manier waarop kernwapens sinds de Koude Oorlog bewust worden ingezet als pressiemiddel.

non conoscevo il concetto di "parrhesia": la libertà di parola ma anche il dovere di dire la verità anche quando questa comporta rischi personali.

Esattamente quello che hanno fatto Chelsea #Manning, Julian #Assange, e i giornalisti di #WikiLeaks, Daniel #Ellsberg,#Snowden

Unilateral Sanity Could Save the World (Tom Dispatch)

The probability that a nuclear war might indeed occur now looms larger than at any other time since the Cuban missile crisis in October 1962.

Unilateral Sanity Could Save the World

Top American officials in the “national security” establishment are notably good at smooth rhetoric and convenient silences. Their scant regard for truth or human life has changed remarkably little since 1971 when Daniel Ellsberg risked

It would have been nice if even a quarter of of the number of people publicly celebrating the death of #Kissinger today had taken the time to say something nice about Daniel #Ellsberg when we lost him earlier this year.

I admit it does feel much more comfortable comparing oneself to a villain rather than a hero.

After Terminal Cancer Diagnosis, Daniel Ellsberg Reflects on Leaking Pentagon Papers & His Legacy

We spend the hour with Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg, who recently announced that he has been diagnosed with inoperable pancreatic cancer with only months left to live. Ellsberg, who turned 92 on April 7, may be the world’s most famous whistleblower. In 1971, The New York Times began publishing excerpts of the Pentagon Papers — 7,000 pages of top-secret documents outlining the secret history of the Vietnam War. The Times exposé was based on documents secretly photocopied by Ellsberg and Anthony Russo while they worked as Pentagon consultants at the RAND Corporation. The leak ultimately helped to take down President Nixon, turn public sentiment against the War in Vietnam and lead to a major victory for press freedom. The Nixon administration went to extraordinary lengths to silence and punish Ellsberg, including breaking into his psychiatrist’s office. But the government’s misconduct led to charges against him and Russo being dismissed. Over the past five decades, Ellsberg has remained a leading critic of U.S. militarism and U.S. nuclear weapons policy, as well as a prominent advocate for other whistleblowers. “Why in the world are we in this position, time after time, of fighting against the self-determination or the nationalism of other countries, and taking on those murderous tasks as opposed to dealing with problems at home?” says Ellsberg in an in-depth interview with Democracy Now!

a chi mi chiede:che vuol dire è ora di smettere di sperare?
Vuol dire: è ora di smettere di credere che nel caso di Julian #Assange e #WikiLeaks, l'amm. #Biden si comporti meglio che amm.#Trump.
Biden ha proseguito sulla stessa via,come denunciato anche dal grande #Ellsberg
