Daniel Ellsberg

 Daniel Ellsberg

Ellsberg was a whistleblower who exposed the corruption that existed in the late 1960s concerning the Vietnam War. It was noted that the Vietnam War was started under dubious circumstances and Americans felt that the war was unjustified. Many Americans took to protests against the war thinking that it was an unecessary war.

Ellsberg would describe how the Vietnam War was created and escalated with corrupt purposes. Ellsberg would publish the Pentagon Papers in the 1970s during the Nixon Presidency. Ellsberg would also include information concerning Watergate and how Nixon had sent FBI agents to break in to Democratic headquarters, steal information, and place wiretaps in the offices.

Ellsberg would be recognized as a hero by Americans for speaking truth despite opposition and envy from Nixon and the FBI. Ellsberg also described how the Vietnam War seemed to be instigated arbitrarily and with unilateralism. While Americans opposed the war, Johnson kept escalating the war. MLK and college students opposed the war and protested. 

It is quite possible that the war was provoked being that the US was not active in a specific war. (The Cold War was denoted for not involving actual warfare with guns, bombs, and battlefield battles, but by the threat of Nuclear Warfare between the US and Soviets.) In a conventional manner, the US was not engaged in a war on the ground with troops in a nation. In the late 1960s, the US was probably being sabotaged internally through the FBI and also abroad by creating wars that were not needed with the CIA. Kissinger probably was the architect of the Vietnam War and probably trained both sides of Vietnam (Had a big book by Kissinger about his involvement in the Vietnam War written by Kissinger but I did not read it and threw it away. It probably detailed his benevolence instead of speaking the truth.). How else was the guerrila warfare so effective at fighting American forces and also having powerful military equipment from land mines to massive repositories of weaponry similar to the US? It does not make sense unless the reason for the war was to lead to conflict with other nations instead of creating peace (neoconservatives love warfare as much as socialist leftists love abortions) and also tarnish Johnson's leadership although he was also probably intimidated to keep escalating the war by Hoover, Sullivan, and the FBI. Johnson even stated that Nixon had described that he would speak to Vietnam leadership to de-escalate the war while Johnson was president. This describes how both neoconservatives and socialists leftists hate peace and serenity. Johnson took to escalate a war that was not approved by Americans and was also hated by the establishment. Ellsberg was able to speak truth and allow individuals to see the reality of corruption and iniquity. Nixon was not a Christian and definitely was a crook. Ellsberg exposed the true Nixon and FBI.

Ellsberg Was Persecuted By Nixon and the FBI

Ellsberg was a veteran who had served in the Marines and learned about politics and corruption. Ellsberg became aware of discrepencies in the Vietnam War narrative. Ellsberg collected information and published the information in newspapers in the 1970s. Among the information included the obvious questioning of how Vietnam could have been escalated unilaterally by Johnson. It is possible that Johnson's popularity was improving based on continuing JFK's reforms yet was not liked by the Establishment. While the Establishment envied JFK, they tolerated Johnson. The Establishment tolerated but did not actually like Johnson either. Nixon may have been involved in getting Johnson to escalate the Vietnam war through threats and intimidations from Hoover and Sullivan. This was noted when Johnson's popularity dropped due to the Vietnam war and Nixon took advantage to ridicule and appear as the obvious solution to unilateral war escalation. Nixon could not defeat JFK, win the Governorship of California, nor was well liked by Americans. In order to prevent the 1968 election from going to a Democrat, the Vietnam War may have been created as an excuse to lower Johnson's popularity and make individuals believe that America was imperialistic being that Nixon was a socialist. (Nixon would play the role of being a "supposed" Christian after getting caught in Watergate and socialists criticized how it was a Christian who was corrupt. The media focused their attacks on Christianity instead of Nixon's socialist tendencies. This was to also mislead individuals to think that Christianity was causing corruption being that Nixon was not a true Christian, moral, ethical, and was actually a corrupt socialist bureaucrat.)

"Indeed, actual federal expenditures for Vietnam in Year One of the war totaled only $6 billion [In the second year it was stated to cost $10 billion]."

"In fact, in the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1966, budgetary expenditures would be not $112.8 but in excess of $126 billion, with Vietnam costing not $10 billion but almost $20 billion." (page 160)

Ellsberg described how the Vietnam war was escalated without approval from Congress and other governing bodies and instead kept on leading to mass casualties. After describing the obvious corruption of the Vietnam war escalation, Nixon, and the FBI's involvement in Watergate, Ellsberg was wiretapped illegaly and most likely surveilled. Nixon wanted to go after Ellsberg because Nixon's obvious corruption was exposed. Ellsberg was charged with treason and espionage for publishing truth in the newspaper being that he was a whistleblower exposing the corruption of Nixon and the FBI who were actually treasonous snakes (obvious projection). Ellsberg was able to persist and not be charged on fake charges from corrupt politicians and the corrupt FBI. Ellsberg triumphed and showed that it is possible to speak truth and stand up for integrity. While he was persecuted for speaking and writing truth, Ellsberg did not quit and kept fighting against corruption. Nixon decided to resign from the presidency since he was going to be the first ever president to be impeached in the history of the United States. Nixon resigned but he was probably enganged in fomenting envy and corruption in his time after the presidency. Ellsberg would outlive Nixon and be considered an amazing individual. 

The Cost of the Vietnam War in 1965 and Domestic Terrorism by the FBI

The monetary cost of the war started at $6 billion in the first year yet escalated to $20 billion in the second year in 1966 despite advisors noting that the cost was estimated at $10 billion. (The real cost of the war was not described and kept being increased while saying that the monetary cost was less.) The war was said to only last until 1967 based on the Vietnam war cost yet kept ballooning in cost. The war went on for more than two years and the cost of the third year in 1967 was $26.5 billion. Johnson described that if he needed to decrease spending on social programs like education and healthcare for the Vietnam war (that was unpopular to many Americans), he was going to keep spending on the Vietnam war. There was skepticism of how the Vietnam war was not being won despite warring for more than two years. It may have been that the Vietnam war was to decrease Johnson's popularity to Americans in order to benefit Nixon in 1968's election. The Vietnam war raised so many questions concerning how can a war have been escalated unilaterally? 

The Vietnam war had caused massive inflation in the second year of the war. Inflation was causing economic difficulties and there was the question of whether Johnson would favor social programs to the Vietnam war. Johnson had been popular in 1964 winning the election by a landslide against the Republican nominee keeping JFK's Civil Rights stance. The Establishment probably did not want his popularity to persist into the 1968 Presidential election since Nixon was going to be a Republican nominee. Johnson was probably intimidated by the FBI and Hoover to escalate the war and make questionable choices deciding to escalate an unpopular war, fund the war, defund social programs, and pay community action organizations to essentially foment racism in the United States. Community organizations were paid to teach socialism and racism to the big cities. Individuals with modest resources were given the opportunity to participate in politics at the local level. Community programs were actually originated from JFK in Peace Corps and Service Corps yet like the socialist bureaucrats like to do, they denied the Service Corps in the United States in 1963 and created their counterfeit version in 1965 (under the deception of fomenting unity and empowering the poor) by marxist socialists. (James Farmer was denied a grant to teach literacy to African Americans with modest resources while Saul Alinsky (an idolator) and several other marxists taught class warfare and probably gangstalking to the poor. Thugs and idolators were paid to make negative and racist street plays and when bureaucrats saw that the idolators were still not happy and demanded more money, the bureaucrats in different cities wanted to scrap the program but did not (they also paid a protection agency to protect them from the marxist thugs costing $15,000 a week in Harlem. Talk about misuse of tax payer resources.) It seems that bureaucrats Sanford Kravitz and Richard Boone were organizing communities to learn socialism and foment conflict. (The FBI were probably intimidating Johnson to not support Farmer and advocating for community programs that taught marxism instead. Instead of the poor working with local politicians to gain political participation, the dynamic was class warfare and racism which was intentional by the marxists who taught the poor. Some local politicians also prevented the poor from participating on boards and led to hostilities, most likely on purpose.) The bureaucracies either were directly or indirectly trying to foment class and race warfare instead of unity and harmony while getting tax payer funded money to pay for the marxist hostilities (The bureaucrats did not suspend the programs from 1965 until 1974 after Congress decided to scrap the programs. Nixon kept the programs under other agencies prior to Congress removing it in 1974.) This was when the Black Panthers were popular and Carmichael was instructing racism and socialism to oppose the Civil Rights Movement. Mark Rudd was a socialist who instructed breaking and stealing from stores. H. Rap Brown instructed the same against Caucasians owned stores and was even given time on the news to foment conflict. How could the Watts race riots have happened? All the while racist socialists were intimidating and attacking pacifist Civil Rights Activists in the mid 1960s. MLK rebuked racism, socialism, criticized the Vietnam war, and kept fighting for equality and justice despite the FBI's persecution in 1965.) It is no coincidence the racist socialists were beats and hippies. Lust and idol worship leads to aggression, envy, and coveting. The Unraveling of America describes how the idolatrous beats, hippies, and socialists were and are the source of problems in the world. Pacifist Christians actually are who have made the world a better place despite persecution and envy seen in JFK, MLK, and Christian Civil Rights Activists. (The Unraveling of America is a book that describes that the turmoil of the 1960s was due to socialism. Yet is a bit generous to Nixon. Nixon never changed despite having P.R. firms that attempted to make him seem genuine and good. Nixon was evil and covetous and never benevolent. Ellsberg did describe the real Nixon and was persecuted, but persevered.

 The Vietnam War and Military-Industrial Complex

The Pentagon Papers described that there were interests from unethical individuals in fomenting warfare. While Johnson had escalated the war, Nixon was touting de-escalation. The FBI probably was intimidating Johnson who decided to escalate the war. All the while, the Establishment wanted to remove Johnson for being non-Establishment. While Johnson was not completely ethical and was noted to eskew the moral standards in order to gain wealth, he was still hated and envied by the Establishment. (Johnson made money by having broadcasting companies that had ties with the government. Obviously, there was favoritism and decreased competition. Definetely not ethical and did not compete with other broadcasting companies fairly.) Despite being unethical, Johnson was not from the Establishment and was hated by the FBI. (The corrupt have tiers and disdain outsiders.) Johnson was favored over JFK because JFK was impressive, ethical, and had a standard of morality preaching genuine empathy. The Establishment wanted to remove JFK from completing another four years since he was able to accomplish so much in three years. When the Establishment knew that JFK was going to win the 1964 election against any Republican contender, JFK was shot. Johnson was president and was tolerated by the Establishment but never a part of. The Establishment disdained Johnson for not being born with money, and Johnson disdained the Establishment being rugged. He did not go to Ivy League schools and also did not favor the pretentiousness of the bureaucracy. Johnson was unethical and not good, yet he was not a bureaucrat. (There are bad people and then there are socialists.)

Nixon was a bureaucrat and a scoundrel. Nixon was even worse than Johnson despite Johnson being not good. Nixon may have been of the Establishment, was a crook, and may have been a part of privately escalating the Vietnam War while also appearing to de-escalate the war publicly. Nixon ridiculed Johnson's de-escalation strategy while intimidating Johnson through the FBI. Nixon was a socialist and took to create an image of sincerity that was repudiated by many people for its fakeness. Nixon also was a part of the military-industrial complex being a part of unnecessary warfare in other countries including Vietnam while saying he was a pacifist and protestant christian. Vietnam was touted as a war to fight against socialism yet the military complex was probably providing weaponry to both sides. The socialists in the military complex including Kissinger were training and proving weaponry to both sides while touting the need to fight the Vietnam war under patriotism. The Pentagon Papers described the discrepancies of how the Vietnam War was not terminated within a specific amount of time and still the obvious incongruencies of military strategy including adding more soldiers when citizens did not approve of the war. Most citizens were against the Vietnam war including MLK and college students. Ellsberg was brave for publishing the exposè that told truth to the lies of Johnson, Nixon, Kissinger, the media, and the FBI. Johnson would not seek re-election in 1968 probably being intimidated by the FBI and seeing the truth of how the Establishment operated. Without JFK and Johnson, RFK decided to fight for the working class and went to be a presidential nominee of the Democrat party. RFK was winning the primaries leading the Democrat party when he was shot. Humphrey came close to beating Nixon by a slim margin in 1968 and Nixon was not able to finish his presidency due to Watergate and may have been the first impeached president had he not resigned. While Johnson was not good, Nixon was worse.
