Ellsberg Explains Reality of US Foreign Policy to Kristol p1



Uploaded by: representativepress
Video Description:
Daniel Ellsberg spent three years in the U.S. Marine Corps, serving as rifle platoon leader, operations officer, and rifle company commander.
He worked as a strategic analyst at the RAND Corporation and consultant to the Defense Department and the White House.
"His recent essay, "The Next War", featured in the October 2006 issue of Harpers magazine, urges government officials to reveal truths about government secrecy and nuclear planning—with documents—to avert a possible attack on Iran."
"A hidden crisis is under way. Many government insiders are aware of serious plans for war with Iran, but Congress and the public remain largely in the dark." http://harpers.org/archive/2006/10/0081208

"to support the ... ( 2 months ago by SlackerSlayer)
"to support the dictatorship of the minority Christains from the Tigre province to terrorize not only their citizen, but the citizens of neighbouring country Somalia.
Dispite the Union of Islamic courts bringing in peace and grass-roots based rule of law in Somalia. the US did not hesitate to bomb Southern Somalia."
You really will not find what the global society needs from any reigion, just the opposite, refrain from respecting those religions in law(s) are what causes most people issues.
Ellsberg is the ... ( 2 months ago by steve287287)
Ellsberg is the actual guy involved with the pentagon papers. Sorry your view is so superficial that you first look at his appearance & judge him as a crazy old man. He is trying to show how the government can & does lie to get us into war. The Gulf of Tonkin incident is now admittedly a "mistake". 58,000 US soldiers died in Vietnam for that mistake. We left with our tails between our legs & now we deal with them regularly.

That fireman was obviously repeating what he was told to say. I do not care about Silverstein's incriminatory words, the fact remains the steel-structured WTC7 building disintegrated, got pulverized, fell down in classic controlled demolition style. Make the comparison with demolition footage. There where far more damaged buildings in the area that did not bulge nor collapse. watch the movie "9/11 mysteries"

werebear1: It's amazing to me how someone can watch the video footage of the WTC collapses and not quickly determine the implausibility of the "offical story" of how those buildings (incl. Bldg 7) fell. I fear that the powerful elite that control our nation will ensure that we'll never get the true account for another 50-100 years, if ever. I challenge Americans to research Tonkin Gulf, The Maine, The JFK CIA plot to bommb American cities as a casus belli for war with Cuba, etc.

If the Gulf of Tonkin attack was a U.S. imperialist lie, then why does Vietnam celebrate their navy 'tradition day' concerning this non-event every August?-"when one of our torpedo squadrons chased the destroyer Maddox from our coastal waters, our first victory over the U.S. Navy." I wouldn't take too much stock in what this man has to say.

Since Nixon the Executive Branch of the Whitehouse has not only failed it's OWN CITIZENS but, continues to involve itself in other countries affairs. This is done vis a vis the so-called spread of Democracy; the only problem is the Whitehouse version of Democracy is "" CAPITALISTIC AUTHORITARIANISM "" Which in my mind is more sinister than communism.

These people are paid by the Arabs as are Carter and Clinton. The story of Israel's survival as a people and as a country surrounded by utterly diabolical belief systems is THE epic struggle of GOOD vesus EVIL. In the next few years China and Russia will soon lock arms with the Arab states in the ultimate act of malignant narcissism in war against Israel. But as it was in the years BC to 1948, 67 and 73 the hand of God will defeat them. The Lord is calling you out of your sleep.

utterly diabolical belief systems
pfff, i think just saying that is:
the ultimate act of malignant narcissism
does this load of crap in anyway represent the general belief of a substantial percentage of jews?

I've read a lot about Mosaddeq, the Iranian leader, and I know the US did a bad thing there. I also know that Mosaddeq was anti-American, it was the Cold War, and he was NEVER democratically elected, as the government he got elected to lead was quasi-democratic at best.
Supporting Mosaddeq was automatically opposing US goals during a nuclear-threatened global conflict, but opposing him threw our support behind other shady thugs.

Static~The ... ( 5 days ago by Chiangmai007)
Static~The mathematical probability of the Jews regaining Israel as their home in 1948 was as likely as the American Indians taking back the USA. The Arabs still cannot comprehend what happened in 48, 67 and 73. These moments comprise an AMAZING study in history regardless of one's religious (or substance abuse) orientation. But God disciplines those he loves and Jewish history makes this manifest. Indeed, most of the Jews in Israel are secularists, but that trend is changing.

Danrodu~All you have stated is that you have utilized a gift from God, namely free will, in adolescent form. As for mythology, God in His humility does not paste MADE BY GOD on every atom, but He does use the beauty and intelligibility of the universe, as well as the inescapable moral laws within us to draw us toward Himself. The story of Israel is the story of each of us-we resist God at our own peril. Indeed the gates of hell are locked from the inside.

Dollar~there is much support for your accusation and I thank God for it. There is also extraordinary evidence that when the US decides to turn against Israel that it is soon visited by trouble...economic, natural and otherwise. I am not suggesting that Israel hasn't done some bad stuff at times, but the myth that there is this tit for tat dynamic in the Middle East against her is just intellectually lame. She is responding to an unending existential threat and idealogy.
