Richard, Bradley did not release “sensitive information” that would have put our country in danger. Do your research. He exposed America being owned by the corporations and wall street and enforced by the military. He handed over a film clip of two men in a helicopter giggling and hooting as they were gunning down a young journalist, the medics trying to save him and some unarmed citizens.

You sleep and sleep deeply within the matrix. You are the traitor, not Bradley.

Sgt. French,

Is it still death in the US?
Barbaric really, but arguments are made for and against by worthier than I.

The question is then, did PFC Bradley Manning commit treason against the USA.
He, as you, swore an oath to protect the constitution (you know, that pesky little swearing in ceremony?)
If Bradley acted on the belief that some part of the constitution was at risk, would he not be obligated to protect it, to take those actions he deemed necessary to it’s defense?

I contend that is what he did, and not having done so would be contrary to the oath taken.

Some of the testimony at the court martial should be very interesting and informative. The outcome will be one of those moments in history, if it gets that far.

Bradley knew what he was risking when he took the assignment on himself.
After learning of what he did, of the truth behind the facade, he copied and then released the documents.
He knew capture and prosecution could result in various mistreatments, like the solitary confinement that he experienced at Quantico. Do you imagine, after what he had seen, learned, that Bradley didn’t know what would be his treatment if he was caught?
Risking what Bradley has to educate the world about the crimes committed by the US government speaks of boldness, and raw courage etc. It speaks not at all of a “fear of being caught”.
As for “don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time”, could you please convey that sentiment to your president so that he can move forward with prosecuting the crimes exposed by wikileaks by way of that National hero PFC Bradley Manning?
If Bradley is found guilty he is and always has been prepared to “do the time”.

Agreed.
I anticipate that Bradleys court marshal will be the match that lites the fuse on a “revolution of consciousness at global scale”.
If we all pull together…….

We can certainly agree, you and I. that just deserts
are owed to Bradley.
I am afraid we part ways on the traitor/disgrace to the Army/disgrace to the country thing.

We will see how the court martial sees it, after all the evidence and testimonies are heard at the trial.
By the way, the court martial starts on the third of June. You’d be well served to listen up, and think for yourself.

I understand that BM did attempt to use the chain of command, and that copying and making public classified information is the definition of a whistleblower, when applied in the Military Justice system. I can’t imagine the military using NDA’s. In the old days one swore to uphold the Constitution first and foremost, and this can be abrogated by no NDA. Anyway, are you saying that an NDA should trump a sworn oath to the constitution? Or just that there should be a trial so that we can put this legal question to the test?

Good news for you then. Bradley Manning’s court marshal begins 3 May and, if we pay attention, we may get an answer to that question.

His freedom of speech is inseperable, even in the military. FREE Bradley Now!

Actually, it doesn’t really apply to military. If he was really so concerned about being a whistle-blower, he would’ve pursued one of the avenues for reporting suspected wrongdoing: his chain of command, the IG, or a member of Congress. He lost all claim to whistle-blower status when he illegally copied a bunch of CDs and gave them to the first taker he found. He should simply be prosecuted for violating his NDA and left to rot in a jail cell.
