“In diesen Tagen weiß ich die Unterstützung und die besten Wünsche von jedem sehr zu schätzen. Ich bin auch dankbar für Alles, was für meine Verteidigung getan wurde. Ich bitte Euch, Euch einen Augenblick Zeit zu nehmen, um an diejenigen zu denken, die aufgrund ihrer Arbeit oder wichtiger Aufträge in diesen Tagen nicht bei ihren Lieben sein können. Ich denke speziell an die Menschen, mit denen ich zusammen gearbeitet habe und die ich seit sieben Monaten nicht mehr gesehen habe und an das Personal hier im Quantico Militärgefängnis, die Weihnachten ohne ihre Familien verbringen müssen.”
Bradley Manning
Dear Bradley,
I admire your courage and integrity. Please know that you have millions of supporters. I know your confinement must be terrible; please know that millions of people are protesting your conditions.
Try to stay strong and know that many of us are working hard to improve your conditions, thinking you many times a day, and are doing everything we can to help and support you.
If I could visit I would, but I am in NY and am disabled.
I am a whistleblower who was rewarded by the FBI for exposing medicaid fraud; there is no reason why you, a true patriot, should not also be rewarded and named a national hero.
As far as I’m concerned, that is what you are.
Kindest regards,
Denise A Romano, MA, EdM
Despite the physical separation you must endure, you are not alone Bradley. There are literally hundreds of thousands of people who know who you are, where you are and what you have done for us all. Too bad you won’t get to read this for a while but I sent a postcard. I hope it will not be long before you get this too.
Dear Bradley: I wish you a Merry Christmas and a whole lot of prayer that justice will come your way. There are a lot of US citizens who pray daily for you.
God’s Blessings
Kay
Remember all the love you receive in your life. It is a balm when times are tough.
Thank Bradley,Europe supports you and we want to see you free asap,,we are with you…
Dear Bradley,
I have not heard of a braver or more Christian act than to defend those being treated unjustly, to step in and give your life so that they may be treated fairly. I just recently read your story and will spread it wherever I go.
I wish you peace and strength in the knowledge that so many stand with you in your imprisonment.
Mary
You are a hero. Hang on.
Dear Bradley,
a Merry Christmas from far away. You have done the right thing. Be strong!
Judith
Appreciating your price for patriotism, I’m wishing you the very best possible at this trying time, and the very best eventual outcome; knowing that history will be kind and judge you an outstanding patriot. You will make this faltering country far better for having been served by you and your conscience. Thank you sincerely.
my very best wishes in the coming year & all of those to follow, R.D.Seifer, seattle
I want to thank you for your service. It takes a lot of courage to stand up and do the right thing.
I also want you to know that you have millions of supporters around the world that are keeping a vigilant eye on your story. You should know that no matter what happens in the future YOU ARE A HERO and should be treated as such.
With that said I want to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Fabulous New Year.
Let’s hope, in the new year, the powers that be are as courageous as you are and do the right thing and set you free.
Merry Christmas PFC Manning.
You are a hero to millions. Please don’t give up, don’t give in.
We need you!!
Best Wishes,
Noel
All the best to you, Bradley!! Don’t lose sight that there are thousands here supporting you! The best disinfectant is SUNSHINE!!

you are a brave one, you are not alone, you never will. Don´t forget there are millions outside supporting you. Merry Xmas. People like you will change this broken world
You are one of the most humble people I’ve ever come across. We up here in Canada are praying for you daily.
God bless yourself, your family, and your fellow troops. Hang in there. God willing, justice will be served.
Steve
Dear Bradley:
You and your courage our the true spirit of our USA and whenever I get the chance to talk to military guys they all say how grateful they are for you and your efforts to tell the truth. No one wants a society that tortures good men like you. You are in the hearts and prayers of many great folks. When i heard that you were being drugged every day I hope you are able to get a really good detoxing regimen as soon as possible.
Have all the courage you’ve dreamed of and the dreams you believe in can come true for you and all of us soon.
Hugs and tugs,
Laura
Bradley, many many of us are thinking of you and wish you the very best. I hope you are hanging in there. Would like to meet you someday. Be well. You inspire.
All my best,
Pete
Greetings Brave Soul. I know you’re facing a terrible time of incarceration and I wish you could be freed immediately. It’s not always easy to do “the right thing” but I believe that you did. Bless you. May you find some inner peace to carry you though this situation. A lot of people are thinking of you and spreading your story. You have a lot of spritual support right now.
Worry not. The just shall always triumph.
Dear Bradley,
Please know that I am thinking of you, and admire greatly your bravery and courage. Know that you have many supporters and advocate. Be well, brother. Stay strong.
Vincent Masi
Bradley,
As the comments here (and mine) show, a lot of people out here have great respect for the bravery you have shown. We are thinking about you and we won’t forget about you no matter what the news cycle decides to focus on. You are way younger than I, but I look up to you for having the courage to be true to your convictions. It is a rare quality. Stay strong.
Dear Bradley,
I was so disturbed when I heard about the horrible treatment you’re being subjected to. This can’t continue. Even the worst circumstances come to an end. I’m in France, and your story is now becoming widely known. Please stay strong and confident. The truth is powerful, and the truth is on your side.
With love and respect,
Margaret Loyon
Dear Bradly,
I’d like to give you, my best wishes, to you and your family in these difficult moments. Although I am not an US citizen, I know how to appreciate the value and the courage of an Authentic heroe, YOU.
The world really appreciate what you did for your country, I can assure you that.
And that effort and sacrifice of getting a clean government, just telling the truth, without stinky secrets is something people will never forget.
Clean politics is absent everywhere, and you fighted and continue fighting against a corrupt system based in a closed government of secrets and lies.
Freedom shouldn’t be so complex to understand for Washington’s people; it is just as simple as telling the truth and banning the word secret forever.
If they don’t understand that, WE, the people will make them to understad it.
The free world WON’T REST until you get outside there, and be free.
We will fight with human rights organizations, we will fight with the press, we will fight with the TV, we will fight in many areas, until you stop to be reclused and BE FREE AGAIN.
I can assure you are not alone. This Xmas, you are in the hearts and minds of many, many people in the world.
We will make the name Bradley Manning be heard in every corner of this world, and we won’t stop.
I never had a great appreciation of the military people or the military world. You changed my perception of this.
There are people with real courage, working for what they believe, that are able to do amazing sacrifices, even if a corrupt superior power says no.
Be strong. We, the people, are with you.
Please, accept a big hug, for you, and all your family.
You are in my prayers, and I know God is and always will be with you.
Today, is a day less for your freedom. Remember that.
Dear Bradley,
I don’t know if you’ll ever read this or if it will make a difference, but you are a hero. I admire you so much since I heard the story. Don’t let anyone else tell you otherwise. Stay brave, we’re here for you.
Kindest holiday regards,
Ali
Dear Bradley,
Please let us know more about how you are doing and how you are being treated. Is it possible for you to share your experiences with someone like a CodePink activist who could then share your story with us out here. We want to know the truth about how you are being treated.
We are with you and pray for your release!
Wooly Wishes from the Shepherd’s Dream Team in Montague, California
Dear Bradley,
We are all so very proud, even envious, of you. You did the right thing. You have become a hero for millions of folks all over the world. We offer up prayers for you constantly, for your safety & good health. We salute you for your bravery, your humility, your goodness in general.
Everything will work out just fine.
Merry Christmas!
Thank you!
William Myers
No one can keep a good man down.
Dear Bradley,
Nelson Mandela was jailed for revealing and opposing injustice. His imprisonment and mistreatment added to the moral authority of his position. By mistreating you, they are enhancing your stature, adding to the justification of your acts and revealing the lack of integrity of the government’s position.
Every day of mistreatment is one more straw added to the back of the arthritic camel that imprisons you.
A world that is only made safe by finely crafted lies is not worth supporting.
A world in which people say and do things they can be proud of, unafraid of external scrutiny, is what the actions of Wikileaks can lead to.
Clear thinking people the world over support you.
Your comments declare that you are on the road of integrity. Stay true to that path and the world will celebrate your eventual vindication.
Way to keep it demure and decent, brother. I don’t know you, but you’ve made my year, along with the folks at Wikileaks. Most of my life I’ve felt that the powers that be will forever tread on their people’s backs. Thanks to you that hopelessness has dimmed and I have faith again that decent human beings will not permit themselves or their fellow man to be herded, silenced and killed without retribution.
At this time you are being victimized and singled out, but in the bigger sense of the word, you are not alone.
Stay strong. I truly hope you are freed soon.
Much love,
Nicolay
Hang in there, Bradley. We’re on your side. Lord be with ya.
Lindsey. Sydney, Australia.
Bradley, Thank you! I wish you peace and healing and a speedy release. Good on ya!
The path of the heros is the one you’re already walking through. Thanks for your bravery!
My best wishes from Venezuela.
Most of the world’s greatest heroes, and many of America’s greatest patriots, were people who were vilified during their lifetime; despised for the very actions we now honor them for. You, unlike our disgraceful national media and politicians, understand the enormous corruption and brutality taking place in the name of America and it’s people. Unlike are ethically and morally devoid government, your actions are on the side of honor, virtue, and heroism. Hang in there!
warm embrace, light, love, and everything that lets you know you’re cherished brad! hold strong. =0)
brad am from scotland an me and ma mates think so much of you stay strong mate and the truth will tell merry xmas and hopefully a free new year all the best mate
I can appreciate how difficult being incarcerated must be for you. Please know this: you will never be abandoned by those who stand in solidarity with you. Peace.
Keep strong!!!! You are political prisoner. Many of my friends support your courage and strength, from all the way South of Argentina in the Patagonia, to the East in Montevideo, Uruguay and to the West in Valparaiso, Concepcion, Chile and further North to Lima, Peru. We admire you!!! You are an example for many young adolescents and young adults in all of the Americas!!!! Thank you for giving us your gift of strength during these holidays. Sending you a warm hug,
Gabriela
Dear Bradley
I read a recent article quoting David House as to your conditions and your own well being.
There is a great truth in your suffering.
Your plight is proving that no government, not even one once held in such esteem as the United States, can be trusted when it comes to the human rights of its citizens.
There has been a lot of talk of Wikileaks endangering lives through their actions. And yet you appear to be suffering tremendous abuses in your own country at the behest of your own democratically elected government.
I am not a religious person and I cannot imagine myself in your situation. I will not offer trite advice. I believe time will honour you as it honours the truth.
Many people are thinking of you. I wish you well.
Yours sincerely,
Tony Aldridge
The first American Hero of the century.
Noble and inspiring, your sacrifice is historic.
Stay brave, healthy and of good will.
So few, like yourself, have saved so many.
Keep Hope alive, in yourself, as you have for others.
Tim
You are a hero. Hang in there Sir – the truth will win.
Merry brightmas from Iceland, dear brother! You are an example of the bravery that individual human beings are capable of and I salute you!
The truth will win, stay strong!
Hey Bradley,
Keep the faith. Justice will prevail, and the more average citizens know of your story, the sooner this will happen. We will keep the pressure up!
-johann
Hang in there, Bradley. We are with you in Australia too.
Wish there was more we could do.
Dear Bradley,
You have not been forgotten, and you are in the thoughts and hearts of many. Dont let the arrogance of the world discourage you because its people like us and you that make this world a damn better place. We will continue to stand up for you and take the necessary action to get out of there. For the mean time, I leave you with one of my favorite quotes…
“When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it–always.” -Mahatma Gandhi
Bradley,
I live in Dayton, OH.
You are an American hero, more so than any of the faces we get to see on the news every day.
We are all supporting you and praying for your swift release and recognition of the good thing you have done, and the wrong you attempted to right.
Keep fighting the good fight,
Happy Christmas!
Will Evans
We’re gonna do everything we can to get your ass outta there, Manning!
Dearest Bradley,
May PEACE fill your soul. May you have GOOD CHEER knowing how much your brave acts of conscience are affecting our world! Because of the Wikileaks revelations of 2010, the GREAT TURNING — from Empire to Earth Community — has REALLY BEGUN. Now, in this very new TRANSPARENT WORLD STAGE where we all know what is going on, the LINE has been drawn — everyone can be seen for what they are — for Life,Truth, Justice or for corruption, secrecy, criminilaity, and the disregard of life. Bradley: THANK YOU! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! I wear my “FREE BRADLEY MANNING” badge over my heart ALL the Time!! (I love you!) I’m here in Australia — awareness and support for you here is growing all the time. KEEP STRONG! We look forward to your Release Party!!!
Bless You,
Katharine Dawn
hi bradley
Greetings from Tasmania Australia ! you are incredibly courageous, and know that you have many many supporters even here. Be strong. I hope that this will be the first and last Christmas you have to spend where you are.
Cheers and well wishes from Cyndia and Justin
Thank you for making the truth known, Bradley! YOU ARE A HERO – a WORLD HERO, not a criminal. Only people like you can change the world!
Keep hope: you will be freed soon,
Marisa and Charles
I fled from the US one year ago because I couldn’t live in the lie of exceptionalism, entitlement, in the ignorance.
Now I can return, thanks to you.
If others did as you we would have a better World. May God’s light be yours. Thank you.
Dear Bradley,
I just want you to know that I’m thinking of you on this Christmas day. You should not be in prison. This is wrong. This is unjust. And this is morally reprehensible.
The fact that your in jail says more about how sick this society is, how corrupt the political and economic system is, than it could ever say about you as a person. If you are guilty for that which you are accused, you are a hero.
But whether you are guilty or innocent, there is no reason why you shouldn’t have had your day in court by now. That is wrong and violates the provisions in the constitution about speedy trials.
The day you are released, and it will happen one day, I will be sure to greet you outside the prison walls in a throng of other well-wishers. Be courageous, Mr. manning, in the knowledge that many of us hold you in high esteem, and the deepest sympathy for your unjust punishment. And know that this injustice can not last.
All the best,
Keith Kinion
Words cannot express how I feel about the conditions you are subjected to every single day. It is a horror and outrage, you should be a free man. As far as I am concerned, you are the bravest most courageous person on this planet. At our dinner today, I will ask my family to send you peaceful thoughts, and hope someday we can meet.
Bradley,
Many people, myself included, understand that you are a courageous example for all of us. Please know that you are not alone, even at times when it may seem that way. Millions are thinking of you and looking forward to the day you regain your freedom.
Dear Bradley,
People are so ignorant and passive. You are paying the price for refusing to be. We will fight for you.
Sincerely, Ellie McQuade
Bradley,
I’m another person who is so grateful to you for your honesty, courage and wisdom. Like tens of thousands of others I am heartsick that you are being forced to suffer in exchange for your concern for the good of humanity. We are praying for your continued strength and rapid freedom. God bless you and thank you for all you do – Anne
Bradley
Please add my name to the many thousands of your admirers and supporters.
Fred Lloyd
Dear Bradley,
Even in Hong Kong you have support. Thank you for your courage. Well done and good luck.
You are a brave and beautiful American son! Thank you! Whatever tests you must endure, I pray God gives you the strength. I firmly believe that you acted in good faith for the American people and all citizens of the world.
Merry Christmas
