U.S. Attack on Iran Likely before 2008
Daniel Ellsberg became known as the man who leaked
'the pentagon papers' - the documents that proved the US government was deceiving the public about the Vietnam War.
On Dec 6th he made
the following statement:
"It is more likely than not, in the next two years, that President Bush and Vice President Cheney will direct an attack on Iran," Ellsberg said at a news conference for the Right Livelihood laureates. "Such an attack ... might escalate too, to the use of nuclear weapons against underground installations in Iran, with incalculable consequences."
But, he added: "Of the various disastrous policies of their administration, this one is the most susceptible to being changed and averted by public pressure."
