I believe that all Bradley Manning did was to expose the atrocities committed by the Americans in Iraq. He is a whistle-blower. Instead of making accountable and punish those who committed these crimes in Iraq; including Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld who invaded Iraq on false pretences; Bradley Manning is being punished. He is one of the many scapegoats. This is pure injustice.
Here is an interesting comment on Manning and Snowden case on the NBC story.
"Close the Fed
"So let this be a lesson Americans,,,,,
",,,,, if you DARE tell the truth about how our corrupt government is trampling on our citizens precious Constitutional Rights, how our government spy's on both private citizens and foreign dignitaries alike, how we constantly lie to our foreign partners, how we demand the right to keep secret our war crimes in the quest of corporate profit, how we have entered wars based on lies which have cost thousands of innocent lives and left foreign countries in chaos and waste , how our government is destroying the liberties bestowed by our forefathers and constructing a bleak, controlled police state for future generations,,,,,
,,,,, then we will disparage you, hunt you, we will threaten any country that takes you in, and we will destroy your life as we gleefully destroy liberty and truth!
( Ah yes, the American way..... Our way or we will sh!t on you bub!!! )

NBC has story on the reaction of Julian Assange of Wikileaks.
"WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has condemned the guilty verdicts passed on Pfc. Bradley Manning as a “clear abuse” of the First Amendment, ahead of the former Army intelligence analyst’s sentencing hearing Wednesday."
