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

In the 1970s, @DanielEllsberg released the Pentagon Papers, sparking controversy over the Vietnam War. Now he talks @StanfordCISAC about the US nuclear strategy over the last 70 years. Spoiler: much has NOT changed. #DoomsdayMachine okt.to/1ODFLD
