FREE BRADLEY MANNING

Is he being tried in military or civilian court?
I seriously don't know, the case seems to cross both sides

I have not seen where they have decided. My guess would be military, but I have little confidence in that guess.

An Article 32 hearing, presided over by Lieutenant Colonel Paul Almanza, was convened on December 16, 2011, at Fort Meade, Maryland; the hearing resulted in Almanza recommending that Manning be referred to a general court-martial. He was arraigned on February 23, 2012, and declined to enter a plea.

Bradley Manning is in prison for leaking evidence of war crimes and crimes against humanity perpetrated by the US government. Here are just a few of the acts this "traitor" helped expose.

These are things our government is hiding from us to cover their own asses. Manning is a hero for being brave enough to honor his oath to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States". His oath did not include covering up the misdeeds and crimes committed by the government.

That attack that killed a Reuters journalist also included the killing of some children. Really? You are proud of that? And think it is justified? If so, STFU about Newtown.

Manning did nothing noble. Manning petulantly stole sensitive and secret documents and released those documents after being reprimanded and punished by his superiors for poor duty performance. His purpose was not noble, it was petty revenge. Manning’s purpose was to embarrass the U.S. and compromise its position internationally, because he was childishly unhappy with his circumstances for which he had voluntarily enlisted. The July 12, 2007, helicopter incident in particular is noteworthy because it was selectively edited and presented out of context to both outrage and inflame public opinion: there was nothing noble about that presentation – it was 100% propaganda.
