Dear Leon Panetta….you are so busy trying to please the homosexuals you won’t release this HERO.
Why don’t you worry about the things that matter….instead of tearing down the military.

Hi Kraz. Our Support Network was formed nearly 2.5 years ago on the general assumption that Bradley was the heroic whistle-blower. And now, generally speaking, he has accepted responsibility. However, that in no way translates into being “guilty” of the charges he faces–most importantly the absurd “Aiding the Enemy” and Espionage Act-related charges. For example, if you shot and kill an intruder in your home, you are not guilty of murder–even if a liberal district attorney brings charges against you. Jeff

We need to drive home the message that women are not to be considered fresh meat by the men in the armed services. Whatever kind of ethical and moral training these men need should have been done yesterday. To prevent future problems, maybe your entire department needs a sensitivity class given to your commanders that emphasizes that rape and sexual harrassment is a crime of bullies. Any of your command that believes bullies belong in our armed services are soiling our flag.

If you don’t know how to teach men to be gentlemen, I can come and put them in line for you but I’m sure there are some women that can explain in great detail the fine points of proper etiquette. You are not supposed to be training our children to be animals.

I do not believe PFC Manning is a traitor.
He exposed a brutal War Crime.
For that act alone, he is a hero in my book.

American government is as accountable for their actions as they try to hold other countries in this world accountable and Shame if they persecute Bradley for exposing their dirty business.

This is something I would expect from a fashist state or one trying to become so. This somethine I expect from the republican agenda to allow a handful of people to tdestroy the constitution. When the military needs to boost its leaders own lack of confidence,morallity and belief in the constitution they do what they do best kill. There are many examples: such as PvtSlovk=ik in world war II. This is why we have a bill of rights(spelled out prcisely). It is also why we have civilian oversight of the military. Look at what the military did to President Carter we that screwball multi force (because each branchs leader demanded to be there).They blew it.Those helicopters came from the factory with the sandscreens on them, you have to take them off to not have them. There is too much to comment here on. Free PFC Manning and the rest of us with him. Chuck

@Frank

You are right but that is not confined to just american politicians.
I think nobody who writes or has written a message to one of the involved politicians is so naive to believe they will follow their plea. But shouldn’t we show them at least that there is more than just a few people that express their forceful protest?
