As miljons of people I am dismayed that when the truth is said it is a a disrarrenment to the US gov.

How about petitioning the government to create a special medal to be awarded to persons displaying acts of conscience such as Bradley Manning has. May be it could be called the „soft-heart“ as opposed to the „purple-heart.“
I would like to add to my comment above as opposed to the „hard-heart“ in the biblical sense.

I wish I had had the same support when I blew the whistle on Northrop in 1986 on the fraud that is the MX ICBM „Peacekeeper“ missile, and other military programs like the B-1B and B-2. Myself, along with another employee, filed suit under the False Claims Act against Northrop Corporation on behalf of the US Government and People of the United States of America. There is a clause in the False Claims Act that allows the Government to take over the case from the original plaintiffs. There is a supposed guarantee of a division of any moneys derived from litigation on a percentage basis – an incentive for the greedy.
I did not blow the whistle on Northrop to make a mint, but my co-plaintiff did and that is what destroyed the entire case after three years of fluffy litigation. The US Government, that pillar of virtue, bought off my co-plaintiff and our lawyers; but not before trying every other trick in the book including surveillance, wire tapping, and the occasional raid – once caught on TV’s channel four and seven (the FBI, OSI, and the DCIS took part in the raid without a proper search warrant and tore the residence up for nothing and the press recorded the whole raid from the doorway as the „authorities“ wouldn’t let them in the house). The „authorities“ even brought along their own copying machine and photocopied every document they confiscated – including the Ship Status Data Form for a Star Trek based board game. They also confiscated a tray of electronic watch components that were part of a hobby – as possible electronic components of military hardware involved in our litigation. With brand names like Timex clearly imprinted on the watch sub-straights (commonly called a motherboard in computers), it makes one wonder exactly what the agents were looking for.
I was still working at Northrop, although in a highly restricted fashion as everyone there knew who I was (ever work in an environment where the majority of your co-workers and past friends, drinking buddies, etc, want you dead?), when it became apparent that the US Government was actively assisting Northrop in a massive cover-up. So I documented it while I had the chance.
I see the same behavior almost every day, actually more pronounced now than in my time, against truth-sayers (whistleblowers). I do not consider myself a hero at all. I am not. I did what I thought would be best for the country as a whole by telling the truth to Power, under the false assumption that Power actually served anything other than itself. Hey, I was younger then. Naive, so to speak.
No good deed goes unpunished and I have suffered ever since, as I’m sure Mr. Bradley Manning will – God bless him. Chin up, old chap! I know how you feel, too, except I made sure they could and would never incarcerate me. I expected there would be outrage from the general citizenry when they learned that the MX missile system was a lemon and a smoke screen for a much more insidious weapon (space based), using the missile as nothing more than a launch platform during the eighteen so-called „test“ flights. Ah, but everyone was asleep. I even went on a CNN morning show called „Sonya, Live in L.A.“ in downtown L.A. and named names when I was expressly told not to by the producer. Sonya was a bitch, by the way, and tried her best to shut me up. The „live“ transmission had a three second delay so they could edit whatever it was you said, but I managed to succeed in naming the Big Players in the Northrop fraud case, including good ol’ Ronnie Raygun. Mr. Manning should have listened to me when I warned the world on Sonya Live! that when you blow the whistle on behalf of the People (forget the government as they do not represent us), you are walking on a mine field.
That so-called „journalist“ who turned in Mr. Manning (hoping for some kind of reward from his masters, I’m sure) should be taken to account for betraying the People’s best interest; ie; the truth about the War. Mr. Manning is a true hero, albeit a bit naive like I was at his age. Welcome to reality, Mr. Manning.
The US Government and Military want the freedom to do whatever they want to do at will, to kill at will , cover up at will, run the US population like sheep at will, and control, control, and control. This machine gun slaughter from the helicopter is merely one more act of countless acts of wrong doing ordered and approved by persons with the moral sense of goats. This Private should be honored for his courage in exposing sheer evil. Every day in every way the overall systems of the US get a little bit worse, a little bit worse.
Bradley is The HERO for Manning the Barackades and ensuring Obummer’s PROMISE of transparency Was KEPT (and the Only ONE!). Barry’s The coward.
