How sad. I will pray for you everyday, until you are released. Just talking about it here isn’t enough. Only 42,000 signatures on that petition. Isn’t there any news media organization brave enough to stand up and tell us the truth. We are as sheep being led to the slaughter. We must WAKE UP. before it’s too late. I can’t get to Quantico, but I will be there in spirit. My mother has been telling me all about this she gets so upset I worry about her. But now seeing it all for myself. I have to stand with her. We must all face the TRUTH. Before it’s too late. God bless us all. What will we do next?

I am appalled at the treatment of the US Government and all the facets of that Government at the cruel and unusual punishment of its (and other countries viz Australia) citizens. Surely sensory deprivation and its consequences is not perpetrated by a sane group of people whatever their job and whatever their nationality. At this point all things American are sufficient to make me feel uncomfortable.

STEVE NEWCOMBE –
I’m with you on this, Steve, and all right minded people of faith will be upholding Brad in their prayers, with immense gratitude for his faithfulness, for, truly, whatever he has or hasn’t done, to be this victimised has to mean he has offended what is evil.

And we surely have, too, a tremendous debt of gratitude to David House for standing on the front line here in the name of all us.

BLESS YOU BRAD, FROM CORNWALL and THANK YOU, DAVID – GODSPEED and MUCH LOVE xxxxxx

Why is manning in jail while scooter libbey is free? apparently exposing a cia agent is less important than some of the trivia revealed by manning. meanwhile, manning is being guarded by marines who are incompetent for combat duty and instead are assigned to guard duty. for a parallel of this treatment, read « unbroken » by laura hillenbrand.

The front line in the fight for global justice (and for every other good thing) is exactly where truth is being revealed. Where truth is being revealed is exactly where the front line is.

Desire truth. Be willing to know truth. Pay attention. To do these things is to worship God.

Think for yourself. Test your thinking by sharing it with others, and listening thoughtfully to what they say. You might be wrong, and you might be right! It’s OK to be wrong, if that’s what it takes to get to where you’re right. (How else?)

When you’re sure you know the truth, trust the truth. Act. Act not because you will be rewarded; you won’t. Act because it’s the right thing to do. The benefits will accrue to all human beings. (You will receive one benefit, for sure: you will know who you are. That’s pretty nice!)

I don’t know anything about Bradley Manning, but his treatment at the hands of the U.S. military can be seen as evidence that he is guilty of worshipping and serving the God of Truth. That’s a religion that U.S. soldiers cannot be permitted to practice. It’s a religion that undermines morale and discipline, especially when war crimes are being committed. Soldiers who serve Truth must be treated in a fashion designed to dissuade all other soldiers from serving Truth. A policy of intimidation is operating here; that much is obvious. It is aimed at Manning’s supporters, but, more importantly and more fundamentally, this intimidation is aimed at all U.S. soldiers.

I remind Christians that the Gospel of John says that Jesus said, « I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. » Truth is Jesus’s middle name. Truth is Jesus. One of Rome’s officials once famously asked, « What is truth? » as he washed his hands. At that time, truth was seen as being contrary to Roman interests. Things are no different today; the Wikileaks affair continues to reveal — very explicitly — that American officials regard truth as being inimical to American interests.

But that’s not the truth. The truth is that Truth is the friend of the American people. Truth is our ONLY reliable friend. Truly!

@ Claudy I would agree wholeheartedly with your assessment, and it saddens me to realize that most Americans are so brainwashed that they actually believe that they live in a democracy. I have spoken to people from many other countries who say we should be grateful that we have such freedoms, but the psychological erosion that results from being repeatedly lied to and punished in subtle ways for not believing the lies takes its toll on Americans who know in their hearts that something is very, very wrong with this so-called democracy that would torture its own citizens, let its own people die or eat plastic so that the rich could get richer, and decide the fate of foreign nations based upon whether they could add to our national treasury.

Bradley Manning is a small light in a dark hour for the US. He is a symbol of what is wrong with our country, and what is RIGHT with the few who stand up and fight against the « benevolent dictator. »

The global repudiation ~ or should I say refudiation in Sarah Palin’s lingo ~ of the US has spread from Tunisia to Egypt! People are sorely pissed… except most of the American people who are thoroughly propagandized by our media.
