President Obama should pardon Bradley Manning.
Advertisements [?]
It looks like Manning will appear before a military court on Dec 16th. Who knew it could take so long just to get a damn hearing? :shrug:

It is essentially a pre-trial hearing that will supposedly allow evaluation of strengths and weaknesses in the government’s case. Ya right. :eyes:

Of course Manning has already been subjected to torture by the US military for revealing US war crimes...so a trial conducted by the US military itself will be nothing more than a farce.

Bradley Manning exposed the US as an imperialist nation that wreaks havoc on the rest of the world. He revealed evidence of war crimes where US soldiers were gunning down civilians from an Apache helicopter. Of course the corporate media has promptly tried to bury this information. No surprise there. We know who they work for.

Manning will not be able to get a fair trial. If Manning is indeed convicted by that kangaroo court, he should be pardoned by President Obama.
