Comments on: We did it! DC Metro ads for Bradley going up now http://bradleymanning.org/featured/nine-days-to-bring-bradleys-case-to-washington-support-the-dc-ad-campaign Exposing war crimes is not a crime!

I will say, while I can appreciate your point of view, I can’t agree with your assessment at large, not when I look at the breadth of revelations the leaks provided, and the patterns within U.S. foreign policy that it highlights.

I look forward to them going away very soon.
This isn’t about the war. The war sucks. This is about the thousands of individuals around the world who had their reputations and careers ended (and in some cases faced physical danger) because Manning decided life would be better if everyone knew who was sharing information with US embassy officials. This is about policymakers no longer being able to get unvarnished opinions from the people on ground in embassies thousands of miles from the warzone. Look beyond Iraq and you’ll see Charles Taylor standing in The Hague using Wikileaks cables to argue his defense. You’ll see human rights activists in China cutting of contact with U.S. officials who depend on them for information.
We’ll never know the real human cost of what he did, but there are so many ways in which his reckless actions damaged foreign policy objectives that I think we’d all agree on, like supporting human rights political freedom globally. Regardless of its effect on the war (which appears to be nonexistent), damage was done from Buenos Aires to Seoul, from Pretoria to Jakarta. I would challenge you to show how he saved a single American, Afghan, or Iraqi life by his “heroic” actions. The war goes on…the only difference is everything ELSE is harder now.

Seriously. It’s an absolute disgrace that this whistleblower is languishing in prison for the “crime” of publicizing war crimes and crimes against humanity. For as long as this guy languishes in prison, I will continue to rail against the injustice of his imprisonment. Shame on the United States Government, shame on everyone who looks the other way. Release this man immediately.

I’m donating. I want to see those great posters up. The pic of Brad is one of my favorites. He looks grim but also look as if he’s trying not to laugh at the insanity of this theater production. What a hero. He puts his commander-in-chief to shame. If he gets the Nobel Prize he’ll restore its tarnished reputation.

I look forward to seeing friends from Occupy and meeting new ones at Fort Meade and the Dept of Justice next week. My brother works at the DoJ. My sister and I make sure he hears the latest news about Brad and real criminals.
