Man behind nuclear plans says we're close to Armageddon

"All out-nuclear war - an irreversible, unprecedented and almost unimaginable calamity for civilization and most life on earth - has been, like the disasters of Chernobyl, Katrina, the Gulf oil spill, Fukushima Daiichi, and before these, World War I, a catastrophe waiting to happen, on a scale infinitely greater than any of these," writes Daniel Ellsberg in his new book, " The Doomsday Machine: Confessions of a Nuclear War Planner " , out now. Ellsberg helped write America's nuclear war plans during the 1960s Cold War years, when the US and the Soviet Union competed to build the greatest and most menacing pile of weapons.
