The Doomsday Machine

The American political activist Daniel Elsberg, who released the Pentagon Papers in 1971 that revealed the secret US government study in relation to the Vietnam War, published “The Doomsday Machine: Confessions of a Nuclear War Planner” in 2020. He paints a doom picture of the future, unless we immediately engage in negotiations with other nuclear armed nations to strengthen the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and begin the dismantling of the Doomsday Machine that is programmed to destroy as much life as possible on the planet once global nuclear war begins — a perilously close possibility under the current postures and protocols of nuclear-armed governments.
