Time to open all the books on Vietnam.

The Pentagon Papers which laid out the US pretences to start the war. As Hesgeth reads the Pentagon Papers for instructions, we learn resistance.

War! What Is It Good For!?!

Distracting people from the sick bastard President Epstein.

Investigate, impeach, imprison, investigate more.

Great morning at #LaSapienza uni with students fighting #War, #GenocideInGaza,and the destruction of free #Education.
I discussed Julian #Assange and #WikiLeaks, Daniel #Ellsberg, Chelsea #Manning and #ExceptionalCourage.
This is the breathtaking art on my way to the uni: #Michelangelo

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.

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.

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

Lo scorso giugno è morto a 92 anni Daniel #Ellsberg, forse il primo #whistleblower

Nel 1971 Ellsberg ha reso pubblici i Pentagon Papers, documenti riservati sulla guerra in Vietnam

Come (e prima) di #Snowden e #Assange, #Ellsberg ha deciso di rivelare la verità sostenendone tutte le conseguenze personali

Su di lui c'è un bel ricordo di Democracy Now. Si trova qui: https://www.democracynow.org/2023/7/3/rip_daniel_ellsberg_most_dangerous_man

Remembering #DanielEllsberg
#Ellsberg will be remembered prominently for providing #PentagonPapers to #NYTimes. He was rightly a hero to anyone who believes we must be in a position to evaluate gov and cast votes based upon truth rather than lies. Dan was steadfast debunking myths arouund gov secrecy as gave unwavering support to others who took courageous steps to tell truth about illegal, immoral, and improper gov actions, especially around matters of #nationalsecurity.

4. poi una riflessione: mentre commemoriamo #Ustica dobbiamo prendere atto che c'è una via fondamentale per arrivare alla verità per cui dobbiamo batterci. La via sono i #whistleblower. Abbiamo bisogno di 100,1000, 10mila #Ellsberg,#Manning,#Snowden per arrivare alla verità

Finally Daniel #Ellsberg is remembered on the front page of the English #Wikipedia in the "Recent deaths" section. His article wasn't in great shape and a number of editors pitched in to bring it up to the front-page standard.

(There's a separate debate on why he didn't get a full bulleted "blurb", consensus appears that he wasn't notable/important enough which IMO is really just a sign that more needs to be done to properly explain and justify his legacy as much more than the Pentagon Papers)

Honour Daniel #Ellsberg by Abrogating the Espionage Act

Daniel Ellsberg’s courage and contributions should be honored by abrogating the #EspionageAct of 1917, which was designed to stifle his example of dissent and whistleblowing

The Late Daniel #Ellsberg’s Wish: Free Julian #Assange, Encourage #Whistleblowers https://truthout.org/video/the-late-daniel-ellsbergs-wish-free-julian-assange-encourage-whistleblowers/

"We remember the life and legacy of #PentagonPapers whistleblower #DanielEllsberg, who died Friday at the age of 92, just months after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. In 1971, Daniel #Ellsberg, then a top military strategist working for the RAND Corporation, risked life in prison by secretly copying and then leaking 7,000 pages of top-secret documents outlining the secret history of the US #WarInVietnam."

Here are Daniel #Ellsberg's final thoughts on what he called "my main concern in life" and his message to us and future Generations

#Interview from 29.4.23
published yesterday

May we collectively heed Daniel's final warning:

Appropriately, this paper on #ambiguity comes out three days after the passing of Daniel #Ellsberg, who made seminal contributions to the literature we build upon

Daniel #Ellsberg’s Last Message https://www.counterpunch.org/2023/06/19/daniel-ellsbergs-last-message/

La storia di #Ellsberg è fondamentale da conoscere per chiunque si dica #pacifista. Riuscì a scavare nel cumulo di menzogne su cui poggiava la #guerra del #Vietnam. Ellsberg ha continuato a battersi anche contro questa guerra in #Ucraina prendendo le distanze anche dalle decisioni di #Biden.

When #Daniel #Ellsberg was 42, a judge threw out #Espionage #Act charges against him.

At 90, he sought such charges again in hope of #challenging their #constitutionality

The USA's Covert Empire

In an interview shortly before his death Daniel #Ellsberg said the US runs a "covert empire", which is a really good way of putting it.

Here's a retrospective on Danial Ellsberg, who died last night at age 92.

That Vietnam/Watergate era was no less chaotic than today. Luckily, the rule of law prevailed in spite of powerful efforts to subvert it.

@dborch

Daniel #Ellsberg wie #Berrigan: "Mitglied der Anti-Kriegs- und der Anti-Atom-Bewegung". Die durch ihn erfolgte Veröffentlichung der Pentagon-Papiere im Jahre 1971 gilt als die wichtigste und einflussreichste Handlung eines Whistleblowers.
Überzeugter Kriegsgegner und Idol der Friedensbewegung ...

Danke,
wir werden deine Arbeit fortsetzen, auch wenn es in der heutigen Kriegspropaganda fast so gefährlich ist, wie deine "Untaten"!

RIP #Ellsberg - role model for many

(unfortunately) I wear this #whistleblower shirt today as a tribute to a very brave person
