    This is a fine page if you already know what it’s all about. But the only place easily found that tells is under the ABOUT button.
    There should be a button that’s says: WHY BRADLEY SHOULD BE FREE!! So those in total/partial ignorance can easily find out why.

    Thank You Bradley Manning;
    My family and I are forever in your debt for your contribution and leadership in protecting freedom by standing up to those that abuse it. I hope that your supporters find a way to free you.
    Peace,

    I have a few questions.
    Isn’t there some law that was passed by your president Bush to have all the information on JFK released? Wouldn’t those laws apply to this case? What is his lawyer doing with the Freedom of Information Act? I’m a Canadian and I really don’t know much about politics but I do know that if your willing to do something you better be willing to stand up and say you did it. That’s just a moral human standard that all should live by. There seems to be no problem in pointing fingers and rallying the American citizens when another country’s citizen(s) kills an American(s). I believe it is referred to as a “terrorist attack”. That is usually big news and mentioned on all media. Well, what do you call what this video shows? Shouldn’t these soldiers be held to the same standard as the rest of the world? Why have you arrested the man telling the truth and set the American soldiers committing a terrorist attack free? Doesn’t your country pride itself on freedom of speech or is that just an illusion?
    We raise our children to have values, morals and courage; and your country condemns it’s son for standing up for what’s right and not hiding a hideous truth that your other sons committed. Your spanking the wrong child. What message do you think your sending? Shame on you for that.
    If you find he was in the wrong or went about obtaining justice the wrong way and broke some security law in the process by all means correct the young man. But you have not done your job. You forgot to prosecute the ones involved in the terrorist attack. If the tables were turned and the exact scenario was performed on a group of Americans this news would be front page for a long time. Not brushed under the rug because you are ashamed. Not taking it out on the messenger to cover it up. This is a black mark on the other 98% of soldiers who are dedicated to protecting and serving your country. Not to mention the faith in the leaders of your country for allowing this horrible situation to be brushed under the rug. They should be protecting from the racist ideals that caused the attack in the first place. The soldiers acting like judge, jury and firing squad should not have preconceived notions or emotions to base justifying the killing of innocent civilians of any country. Hard facts. These soldiers saw something in the hands of these men but had not confirmed what was in the hands of these men. Through assumption based on fear or racism these soldiers made a false diagnosis obtaining permission to open fire on civilians and they should be prosecuted on the evidence and facts.

    Well done for having the courage to stand up and inform the world of the crimes of the US military.

  • chris

    The Army is at fault in not providing an explaination.
    Pvt. Manning was morally right in telling the world of this horrible event.
    The army must examine the action and determine if firing at the target was justified or even intentional. There is a question here ? as firing an automatic weapon from a whirrling, turning gunship is not pin point accurate. The experience of the gunners and the mission they were assigned are a question for the army to answer??

    How can we win the war on terrorism if we are terrorists ourselves? Praise Manning for leaking this video. After watching “Collateral Murder”, I legitimately asked myself how proud I was to be an American. And I can honestly say not very.

  • stefan.

    HiI´m Stefan and I am from Bavaria;Germany.I just read Bradleys story in a newspaper and feel very sorry for him.I think it´s not a crime to expose war crimes and for me it`s a horrible thought that this brave young man will be in prison for the rest of his life.There are many poor people on this planet,but I can understand brad in a special way,why he felt so isolated,cos I´m gay like him and also often was very isolated,because Bavaria is very conservative,very catholic and so a lot of people dont like homosexual people.My big problem is,that all the supporters seem to be american,what can I do here in Germany,I really want to support him ,because I had ters in my eyes when I read his story.I want him to know that many people fight for him,also in foreign countries,he should never have the feeling he is alone.It`s a scandal when he goes in prison for fifty years and soldiers who committed this crimes are in freedom,it would show me again that the worlds very unfair and disgusting sometimes

    Can he use the internet in jail ?

    Dude what you did is something unbelievable.Surely you have many offers, I saw that they moved Wikileaks servers, but if they/you need some help, i´m from Argentina, we can help you guys.

    You started this in a very brave way and now you’re, unfortunately, paying for it, but the information can not be stopped, if you need help do not hesitate to contact us.

    I hope you get your freedom soon !

  • stefan.

    Hey dudes,here is again stefan from Germany.Can anyone tell me,how I can help him the most,because I feel so powerless.I do not want him to spent the rest of his life in prison.Although he is a hero for many people,it does not help him,when he is in prison til he is an old man,this thought breaks my heart,that sounds ridiculous but I really feel sympathy for him.It was really brave,he is a kind of hero,but heroes often have a cruel life.As you see Sophie and Hans Scholl were German heroes,who fought against nazi ideology,but they were executed by the state.Rosa luxemburg was also a brave woman who fought for better conditions in the society and for freedom in the fist world war,she was also tortured and sent to prison many times.She was then executed by a military person,very cruel.you see,it is not always good to be a hero,but I am really,really afraid of him and I have the feeling I canot do something as a poor student from Germany.Please answer me,what I can do and communicate with me about Bradley,I would like to have some communication here,so please write back to me,if you do not want it is also ok

    Dear Bradley,

    People like you, Daniel Ellsberg and Julian Assange are the bright lights in a dark, dark world. You dared to put your own freedom on the line for a chance to do right thing. It is a rare thing to see such courage and responsibility.
    As a concerned citizen of this world, I thank you for restoring a bit of hope for all of us.
    Keep up the good fight. We are with you.

    Quote from Ron Paul, a republican Tea Party endorsed politician I usually disagree with. But on Wikileaks I do agree with him:

    “In a free society we’re supposed to know the truth. In a society where truth becomes treason, then we’re in big trouble. And now, people who are revealing the truth are getting into trouble for it.”

    Truth is a crime in an empire of lies…

    2 Stefan: I know 2 small things you can do:
    1-use your own email addresses and facebook (or hyves or twitter) account to spread the word; I am quite sure none of my friends here in the Netherlands had heard of Bradley a week ago but now I’m sure many of them know and thanks to Wikileaks there is much to refer to with hyperlinks these days:)
    2-throughout life (try to) maintain integrity when facing injustices and help those who are in need. Bradley showed the way, we all can follow his example on a smaller scale and speak out when our fellow human beings are confronted with injustices…

    2Patrick,thank u for answering me,the idea is good,we must help our brother and built a strong community against this injustice.Without Manning,the world woud not have seen this warcrimes and for that he should go in jail,thats stupid.I read an chat of bradley when he talked to Lamo the…….who was the reason,why he is in jail.In this chat you could see he is an idealistic man

    Just hold on, and the weight of the world will give you the strength to go!
    Hold on, you are our personal hero!

  • josh w

    Bradley Manning is a hero and so is Julian Assange. In my opinion the most we can do for these people is to never forget the sacrifices that these two are making in the name of true freedom of information and true freedom of speech. I only hope the day will come when I can also step up and make the kind of impact that these two have.

    Now we finally see the true power that one person can have against the entire world in the name of truth and justice. Long live the power of one!

  • stefan.

    2 Josh,do not be angry with me,because what you say is right,but it does not help Bradley to see him as a hero and do not forget what he did,when he is in jail and his life ruined.He should get out of jail,but i am afraid he will not.This rally makes mme wanna cry,we have have to do everything to fight for his freedom,so that this brave young man has a good life and is not in jail until hhe is an old man.HE MUST GET FREE,but you are right Josh we are not allowed to forget him,but that is not enough we have to do more

    I can understand how the actions of the gunner and everyone else involved can be justified. There was a man with an RPG aiming it at the heli. What cannot be justified, and what I find hideous, disgusting, and against the core of American morals is that he was imprisoned for this. This is the ultimate act of patriotism. If anything he should be rewarded.

    Hope they didn’t hurt him in there.Prison is not what he deserves.Some time I wonder what they do that for?

    I would just hope that Bradley can hold out until he is released.

    I will do all I can to help spread the word. And I also hope that Julian Assange stands alongside Bradley for I reckon Assange will get released sooner than B. Manning.

    Someone wrote something from Beethoven’s 9th in their post.

    “Alle Menschen werdet Brüder”

    Indeed. There’s always hope. And I hope Bradley Manning will be able to listen to music very soon. The word needs to spread!!! It cannot be possible to imprison someone for this length of time without a conviction!
    I hope you all read the article in Salon today
    http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/glenn_greenwald/2010/12/14/manning/

    can we write letters to Bradley, send him books or films, and if so, how? if we are located outside the USA, can you help us send him letters/books/films? does he have access to a computer/tv/dvdplayer/mp3player in his cell?

    pls reply to my email address (but keep it private). many thanks.

    What else can one do?

    Send him a card or letter from anywhere.
    He is not allowed to receive items, books, CDs, etc., he hasn’t ordered and gotten prior approval.
    He has no access to the web or phone.

    People should know about one result of the Wikileaks “collateral murder” video. When one of the soldiers, Ethan McCord, saw it and recognized himself in the video, trying to save the lives of children but being told to leave them behind, that cemented his opposition to war.

    Look up Ethan McCord on the internet. Good stuff there. He has stated: “I saw no accomplishments whatever in Iraq. We are causing more harm than good.”

    He urges taxpayers to remember that they contribute to war with their taxes.

    I am a conscientious objector to military taxation. If we had lots more such COs, the wars would have to stop.

    Thank you everyone for sending cards and donations for Bradley Manning!

    all the best, Jan

    The 1st amendment lies in tatters. A man standing up for freedom and exposing murder is falsely imprisoned whilst war criminals walk free. Shame on the USA and the rest of the complicit world and media.

    There is something disturbingly Nazi-esque about this.

    “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

  • Susy

    Jamie, It is not only the 1st amendment that lies in tatters…it is the entire constitution and the ten commandments of this so called “christian” nation. Oh…yes all the jewish laws as well. Actually the basic laws of all religions. There are few crimes that the us government is not guilty of. Bradley Manning is an honorable young man who should be praised and not punished.

    I have signed the petition, written to the base commander and sent a small donation. I hope there will be a group formed in my city soon.

    Bradley you are in my thought daily and will do everything in my power help free you.

  • Veronika

    I read every comment left by people on this site as I get them via email.

    I must say, it’s nice to hear from people who have a heart and mind. And like Susy, every single day I think about Bradley Manning. Everyone supporting him is great. It takes courage to step up and swim against the current, Bradley more than most. He deserves nothing less than the most deepest respect for doing what he did. The US is funny that way: the government and the military nestled within that structure is almost draconian as an entity against anyone who dares to challenge the codex. Bradley Manning challenged that in a very profound way.

    Yeah, all I can say is: I’ll defend what he did towards anyone I know and spread the word as best I can.

    I am a South African citizen who lived through the dark days of South Africa’s ‘Apartheid’ state. What USA gov is doing to Bradley Manning reminds me so much of what South African Apartheid gov did to so many South African citizens. Just as your state is arguing about Bradley, our apartheid government told us the violation of human rights was for our own good and defence from terrorists. WAKE UP the good people of United States!!. This is how the erosion of democracy begins and tyrants start to rule. First they will start by picking on champions of human rights, just like Bradley, and before you know it you will have terrible dictators in your government and liberty freedom and democracy will be no more in your country. The real threat to your country is not from terrorists, it is when human rights and the rule of just law begin to be eroded. Just like what is happening to Bradley.

    My heart breaks for all political prisoners around the world. Mr. Manning, the fact that we are not honoring your fearless act and yourself, as a hero of our time, I don’t understand.

    Countless Americans and citizens of the World know your name and keep you in their thoughts, as I do. We blend into our urban backdrops but we will stand with you, where it counts. Thank you for your sacrifice. I wish we had the Power to instantly correct the injustices before us, but it will take time to move the forces we are up against. Together in the fight for Truth and Justice!

    the pictures are telling everything….. Who don´t understand what is humanity, is a sick poor devil. Is this the american way of life? I think it´s the way of a sick society of
    conservative, piggy and smug people like George W Bush´s clan and the new tee party too. they changed the american dream of freedom to a dream of a new worldorder with the help of their weapons, where they are the only leaders and lawmakers. but they forget that:

    “everybody in the world wants to be free and all informations for all means real democracy.”

    all germans philosophers and all real humans in the world are on the site of organisations like wiki-leaks and peoples like Bradley Manning are the real heros in the world.

    keep up the good work. good things are existing because people existing who believing in it.
    the truth will be winning!

    Bradley Manning is reportedly gay; what is being planned to actually rescue of Bradley Manning?
    Does anyone believe that he is receiving the treatment that is best for him, medically speaking, or legally? So, what are the avenues for taking him out of the prison he is in and getting him the environment which is appropriate? He can be physically removed by thousands invading the place, or the buildings can be surrounded by thousands of supporters, just like the people of Egypt are doing, or Congress can be mobbed to shame them into some weak, sniveling, gestures, as they usually do. But, hey, this guy has done a lot for us Americans who have been itching to have better documentation about the US military thugs who are robbing us blind so that they can play their “arcade games” with real victims.
    Lets get Bradley Manning out of their bloody clutches. So how? How about a march on the facility? Set a time and where to assemble. Lets get as many a possible. Mobilize the gay community. Don’t ask, don’t tell is out, so lets ask and tell them we want Manning out now. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I’ve just seen a broadcasting on german TV that included parts of the video. Although I already knew what had happened I was shocked. There is no justification for the killing of civilians or wounded people, and hence no legitimacy of accusing Mr. Manning. He has my deepest respect and admiration. I hope I will be as brave as he was when I’m challenged to show courage.

    Das Verhalten der Mörder im Hubschrauber sowie ihrer Vorgesetzen ist eine Schande für die USA. Auch das die Tat vertuscht wird und die Mörder frei herumlaufen ist unerträglich. Ich bewundere Bradley Manning für seinen Mut und ich verabscheue seine Folterknechte. Als deutscher weiss ich dass man zu den Verbrechen seiner Landsleute stehen muss, dass man dafür Sorge tragen muss solchen in Zukunft zu verhindern. Wenn die USA eine ordende und akzeptierte Weltmacht sein wollen, täte Präsident Obama gut daran für Gerechtigkeit zu sorgen. Die Mörder und ihre Vorgesetzten müssen bestraft werden. Bradley Mannings ist sofort auf freien Fuss zu setzen.

    One of the most disturbing aspects of WikiLeaks and Mannings controversy comes from the Neurenberg Trial which concludd that anyone who knew of Hitlers crimes against humanity and did not reveal them were equally guilty. Manning and WikiLeaks had a humane obligation to expose what they knew. Anything else would have been criminal (or should be). I think that’s what scares those in Wash D.C.

    Manning’s lawyer David E. Coombs has also been posting information about the conditions under which Manning is being detained on his blog. So how is a suspected military whistleblower treated? Here’s Coomb’s on a day in the life of Bradley Manning on 18 December 2010.

    Things can change fast. Manning was placed on suicide watch on 18 January — over the recommendation of two forensic psychiatrists. Is suicide watch a protective or a punitive measure? On filing a complaint about Manning being deemed a suicide risk, Coombs posted the following on 21 January:

    “The suicide risk assignment meant that PFC Manning was required to remain in his cell for 24 hours a day. He was stripped of all clothing with the exception of his underwear. His prescription eyeglasses were taken away from him. He was forced to sit in essential blindness with the exception of the times that he was reading or given limited television privileges. During those times, his glasses were returned to him. Additionally, there was always a guard sitting outside of his cell watching him.”

    Coombs’s appeal was successful and Manning was returned to prevention of injury watch (POI).

    “Life for PFC Manning, however, is not much better now that he has been returned to POI watch. Like suicide risk, he is held in solitary confinement. For 23 hours per day, he will sit in his cell. The guards will check on him every five minutes by asking him if he is okay. PFC Manning will be required to respond in some affirmative manner.

    “At night, if the guards cannot see him clearly, because he has a blanket over his head or is curled up towards the wall, they will wake him in order to ensure that he is okay. He will receive each of his meals in his cell. He will not be allowed to have a pillow or sheets. He will not be allowed to have any personal items in his cell. He will only be allowed to have one book or one magazine at any given time to read. The book or magazine will be taken away from him at the end of the day before he goes to sleep.

    “He will be prevented from exercising in his cell. If he attempts to do push-ups, sit-ups, or any other form of exercise he will be forced to stop. He will receive one hour of exercise outside of his cell daily. The guards will take him to an empty room and allow him to walk. He will usually just walk in figure eights around the room until his hour is complete. When he goes to sleep, he will be required to strip down to his underwear and surrender his clothing to the guards.”

    Bradley Manning exposed a war crime by the US military and is now awaiting a trial by US military. A disturbing paradox. Is there any way someone in Australia can make a protest to an office, department or congressman in the US?
