Bradley Manning global days of action, March 19-20
On March 19-20, 2011, thousands will take to the streets to protest the
U.S. government’s treatment of accused WikiLeaks whistleblower Army PFC
Bradley Manning. Bradley has been held in isolation for nearly 300 days.
Last week, US State Dept.
spokesperson P.J. Crowley, declaimed Bradley's treatment by the Army as
“ridiculous and counterproductive and stupid.” He has since resigned.

Bradley Manning Faces Death Under New Charge of “Aiding Enemy”
March 2, 2010
“I’m shocked that the military opted to charge Pfc. Bradley Manning
today with the capital offense of “aiding the enemy”. While the military
is down playing the fact, the option to execute Bradley has been placed
on the table. It’s beyond ironic that leaked US State Department cables
have contributed to revolution and revolt in dictatorships across the
Middle East and North Africa, yet an American may be executed, or at
best face life in prison, for being the primary whistleblower. Millions
of Americans, and even more internationally, clearly understand the
contribution of Pfc. Manning towards not only freedom of information,
but literally freedom itself. It’s hard for me to reconcile that with
the US Army’s additional criminal charges against Pfc. Manning today.”
