Re: Brad Manning: Traitor or Hero? politics and war aside-when you join the military you swear an oath to never ever disclose secret information not even to your spouse.He knew the consequences, whether or not his intentions were good is irrelevant. He is subject to military law which pretty much forfeits all but the most basic of rights. He did this to himself and should've been more careful. |

Re: Brad Manning: Traitor or Hero? according to what i found, he was moved to a medium security facility at Fort Leavenworth and is in an 80-square-foot cell with a window and a normal mattress...he is also able to talk with other pre-trial detainees and keep personal objects in his cell. horrible situation he's in though. |

Re: Brad Manning: Traitor or Hero? His superior(s) should be on trial too as the signs of him having mental troubles were there for awhile and they still let him work with classified docs. Quote:

Re: Brad Manning: Traitor or Hero? He leaked the information because it contained evidence of wrongdoing. If he took an oath then I'm sure it was intended to protect strategically sensitive material, not criminal activity. |

Re: Brad Manning: Traitor or Hero? There is a price to being a passive/aggressive mindf*cker. Consequences don't care if you like it or not. |

Re: Brad Manning: Traitor or Hero? Numerous crimes were highlighted after the leaks and it seems like nothing has been done about them. The fact that the government didn't do anything about them initially isn't surprising but the apparent lack of public pressure or interest is astonishing. It seems to me (as an outsider) that American sentiment is easily sidetracked. I'm not sure how the average American sees Manning but in Britain there would not only be overwhelming support for him, there would be an appetite for justice to be served in relation to the crimes that were exposed; more so than demonising the individual who leaked it in the first place. |
