I attended a rally for Wikileaks, Julian Assange and Bradley Manning today in San Francisco outside the British Consul. The situation with Manning, who will be 23 tomorrow is such that he could spend the rest of his life in prison. Unlike Assange, he is an American citizen which could mean they could go after him for espionage or treason.
As a supporter said outside the courtroom in Britain the other day we have a situation where the war criminals are free and those that exposed them are either in jail, or with Assange, recently released on bail despite the US government's efforts to get their hands on him. Manning is a hero. What is a beyond me is that there is not a massive support network for him. Here we are in the land of the free they say and he's in jail, possibly for life, for telling the rest of us about the dirty tricks of US capitalism including murder and the killing of innocent civilians that endangers all our lives by fostering hatred of us throughout the world. Please consider Bradley Manning's heroic act and his possible fate and get involved. Manning and Wikileak have done a great service for US workers and all of us throughout the world. This speaker gives more detail about Manning's situation.
