    What Ellsberg didn’t know, as he stepped up to the microphone on the steps of the Capitol building, was the the crowd had been infiltrated by CIA “assets.”
    Their instructions were to “break both his legs” or even kill him.
    President Richard Nixon had personally acquiesced to the planned assault during a meeting with Henry Kissinger..

    ..“The most shocking aspect of the Wikileaks revelations is that corruption, torture and assassination have become so common that they are not even classified top secret.
    “When I was an officer in the field, or when I was compiling the Pentagon Papers, incidents of this kind would have been given the highest possible classification.
    “Today, they have become so normalised that they are in files to which literally thousands of people have access.”

    ..“I have long regretted not releasing the documents in August 1964, and it is a heavy burden for me to bear. Had I done so that terrible war might well have been averted altogether.”..
