Manage episode 364076903 series 3291606
This week the guys take a look at some of the United States' more controversial declassified documents. Vietnam was a quagmire, everyone knew it, the public, the military, the President...but no one could PROVE it, enter...Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon papers. What the hell is an "Atomic Veteran"? And what did they do to earn such a name? Would the US consider creating a situation that would warrant a war? Would our government consider allowing US citizens to die in order for it invade a foreign country? What is the "Project for a New American Century" (PNAC)? Tune in for the answers to these questions and much more.
