Remember the Pentagon Papers of 1971 - the secret war plans the Pentagon had, which turned out to be true?
Leaker Daniel Ellsberg is calling on today's Pentagon insiders to leak the war plans currently being considered for War on Iran.
We've been posting for months that the Neo ConArtists are absolutely set on this war - especially since they've tasted blood via the Lebanon/Israeli conflict, and they've convinced Bush it is his destiny to lead it forward. What folly!
BTW, it WILL require an American Draft to accomplish. Those plans are public and call for 18 - 42 year olds to be drafted - men and women.

His remedy: "Conscientious insiders" need to leak hard evidence to the press and public, while risking their current and future employment, as he did in the early 1970s.
"What needs disclosure is the full internal controversy, the secret critiques as well as the arguments and claims of advocates of war and nuclear 'options' -- the Pentagon Papers of the Middle East. ... "The personal risks of doing this are very great. Yet they are not as great as the risks of bodies and lives we are asking daily of over 130,000 young Americans -- with many yet to join them -- in an unjust war. Our country has urgent need for comparable courage, moral and civil courage, from its public servants. They owe us the truth before the next war begins."
