Truman through Nixon â€â€? as having lied to the American people about the growing level of U For it, he faced treason charges and a possible 115-year sentence As the war escalated, he became increasingly troubled by misinformation flowing back home â€â€? and by what he saw as a flawed U , a private think tank in California Dispatched to dig up evidence to discredit Ellsberg, these Nixon White House "plumbers" were caught eight months later while committing the Watergate burglary that would bring down Nixon's presidency The U Supreme Court ruled in favor of a free press co m â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? EDITOR'S NOTE â€â€? Frazier Moore can be reached at fmoore(at)ap "He was a man who was obsessed with the truth and willing to follow his obsession, even if it contradicted everything he believed in The moral struggle of Daniel Ellsberg, and the extraordinary act it compelled him to commit, is the subject of "The Pentagon Papers," an inadvertently timely film premiering on the FX network Sunday at 8 p Count Ellsberg as one who draws parallels The airing of "The Pentagon Papers" finds the nation poised for war against Iraq By leaking copies of the so-called Pentagon Papers to The New York Times and The Washington Post, Ellsberg prompted a showdown between the First Amendment and the White House, which fought to suppress the report's publication strategy for halting the spread of Communism EST The government would deny the existence of this dismal report while continuing to reassure the public that victory was imminent But within a few years, he had become a dove â€â€? and, by one measure, a national traitor After watching a cassette of "The Pentagon Papers" last week, he voices his approval of the film m " That was what drove Ellsberg to bring some crucial truths before the American people S Finally, Ellsberg came to an agonizing decision: The top-secret study should be leaked to the American people " Ellsberg's evolution began in 1964 during a stint at the Pentagon, which sent him on a two-year fact-finding mission to Vietnam An anti-war movement has mobilized fxnetworks "If it encourages just one person to be a whistleblower," he said Wednesday, "that would be great Depressed at his failure to be heeded by government leaders, he returned to his old job at the Rand Corp involvement in Vietnam Thanks to Nixon, Ellsberg's deepest truths had set him free "It's never been about Vietnam," says Ellsberg S And Ellsberg began seeing a psychiatrist " No politician could appear to be soft on Communism And the war continued to grow Yet the 71-year-old Ellsberg (who was not involved in making this film but recently authored "Secrets: A Memoir of Vietnam and the Pentagon Papers") might seem a relic from ancient history Now, thanks to circumstances no one could have foreseen, his story has startling currency " Even so, he notes that "The Pentagon Papers" has certain evergreen themes, among them: "The American people must be informed about the decisions of their government, and a decision to go to war must be made with debate and analysis involving all Americans â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: www In May 1973, a federal court judge, citing these "bizarre events," dropped the charges against Ellsberg No president could let a war be lost on his watch For those who hear them, echoes from the past are loud and disconcerting |
