How the Pentagon Papers Came to Be Published by the Beacon Press: A Remarkable Story Told by Whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg, Dem Presidential Candidate Mike Gravel and Unitarian Leader Robert West

really interesting to hear presidential candidate Mike Gravel was an instrumental role in getting the Pentagon Papers written into the Congressional Record and then in connecting with Beacon Press for publishing and widespread circulation.

Of course today the same kind of governmental secrecy and manipulation is going on and the threat of expanding the war into Iran is very real, which would be a monumental tragedy that could very well bring martial law into the United States.
