So, Nobody, I take your statement to mean that you approve of:

1) Troops murdering innocent unarmed civilians

2) Getting rid of the presumption of innocence to allow lengthy & severe punishment prior to even the first court appearance

3) Summarily disallowing the defense witnesses so a fair trial can’t be had

4) Governments keeping secrets that have no national security ramifications other than sparing embarrassment or to conceal serious illegal acts.

Well, if the NDAA is signed, you may just get the country you wish for. Hope you like it for yourself and the people you care about as much as you like it for PFC Manning.

I don’t know that posts from people like ‘nobody’ are appropriate for this site. I’d like to see his/her post deleted. It’s just a thoughtless, hate based emotive response. We have a ‘legal process’ in this country for many reasons. Bradley Manning and his current plight is one of those reasons. Manning is a HERO!

MANNING’S LIGHT — NO SMALL THING

If there were ever a battle between the noonday sun and the dead of night — which would totally destroy the other?

And so it is with the battle between Manning’s enlightenment and government brainwash darkness, and for an absolute if corporate owned media had reported the truth, single-handedly Manning’s massive amount of light would have so illuminated all the corruption done behind closed doors that we would now have all new politicians, tax payer funded elections and all our troops back home rebuilding infrastructure.

So, the corporate rich owning and funding all of mainstream media, all news (new reality) converted to propaganda and misinformation, what does this actually accomplish? Well, it mixes light with darkness such that you see light as darkness, fall in love with darkness and hate those who walk in the light thinking they be most evil darkness.

For darkness is an illusion of good hiding misery, a liar’s pretense of good hiding an intent to be enriched upon our misery, and light the only thing under the sun that can possible end such misery.

WISDOM — MORAL INTELLIGENCE

Surely wisdom is in direct proportion to humility, which is in reverse proportion to rank, glorification and privilege. Which proves beyond a reasonable doubt that only if the judges were buck privates could Manning be spared a kangaroo court run by moral imbeciles.

What day was this? December 20, 2011 was a Tuesday, not a Wednesday. Thank you for the excellent record of the proceedings.

The sheer stupidity of after the fact persecution, punishment in a vane effort to put the cat back in the bag and get all those crawling worms back into the can, such is the self-crucifying thought pattern of a dieing Empire.

For light forces all darkness to give way and if you can’t stand the exposure, then feel your way deeper into darkness.

The truth is, we can’t really get a ‘whole picture’ without defense witnesses. This is a pretty rigged ‘pre-trial’. I hope Coombs comes out swinging today!
