I saw this amazing documentary on BBC4 last night (as part of their
storyville series) on Daniel Ellsberg. He is credited with contributing to the end of the Vietnam war by
releasing secret CIA documents that revealed how successive presidents had lied about
the war. If you get the opportunity check this documentary out! For me one of the most
spine tingling moments was when Nixon proposed dropping nuclear bombs on Vietnam to an audibly
disturbed Kissinger...there was a pause before Nixon asked him "Does that bother you?"
