"Whether rightly or wrongly, we are the only country in the world that believes it won a war by bombing - specifically by bombing cities with weapons of mass destruction, fire bombs, and atomic bombs - and believes that it was fully justified in doing so. It is a dangerous state of mind. " - Daniel Ellsberg

Ellsberg also does an analysis of how harmful even a small nuclear exchange is. He showed in a nuclear exchange, billions of people and that's just the minimum. If the exchange is bigger then it would be even more fatal. It's quite the revealing title where not only we learn the dangers regarding nuclear weapons, but also Ellsberg teaches us how we can avoid nuclear catastrophe.

Ellsberg delivers the shocking truth that is impossible to find through another medium.
