These tools who defend the Iraq War have never seen it.

Lol, the public has no power to vote people in charge of the military or other government agencies into their positions.

This guy is a tool. Target #1: BlackFive. If that website is not already defaced, I'll be surprised.

It's ok to kill Arabs and then laugh about it, but a crime to cross a piece of tape, and GOD FORBID, a war crime to expose war crimes. There couldn't be a more brainwashed culture to have EVER existed on planet earth. And make KNOW mistake about it!

@rctack You know the Constitution declares a right to bail, yet Manning who is not a risk of fleeing is denied bail; even though Americans are required to be provided due process of law & a trial before a jury of their peers before being punished.
Do you believe its right for the establishment to not stand by Constitution?
U know Manning actually tried to follow protocol & reported his concerns to his commander prior to anything coming out by whoever put it out there & he did nothing about it.

@ecotts The legal system/ government is screwed up. Hell, anyone right or left wing will tell you that. Why do murderers sit on death row for twenty years? Why was OJ innocent? Why ask me a question you know I don't know the answer to? So you can give your political view and rhetoric when I say I don't know?

@rctack tell me something, why has Bradley Manning never been trialled or convicted for any of these charges?
-
@ecotts Well, under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, he aided the enemy. In the real world, theres no telling how many innocent lives were lost. The lives of Iraqi's and Afghani's that work with the US to aid in the mission. I know war is horrible, I know accidents happen, but 99.9% of people that join the military don't do it to just kill people. He deserves what he's getting. He broke the law. Period.
-
@rctack If Bradley Manning handed over military files to expose unlawful killings which are outlined in the Geneva Conventions International Humanitarian Law; the law that regulates the conduct of armed conflict & seeks to limit its effects & to specifically protect people who are not taking part in hostilities ie civilians, health workers, press, aid workers & those who are no longer participating in the hostilities, such as wounded, prisoners etc, he did what was right under international law.

@ecotts My point is, you don't know what combat is like, so watching some video doesn't give you the right to judge and my other point is, regardless of my beliefs and your beliefs Bradley Manning broke the law and deserves to rot in prison. I hope one day you are forced to take a life just so you can be judged by others. This for the most part is a grateful and thankful country but theres obviously still some that are confused.
@MrHelldogger
If the US fighting force is so great, why did it FAIL in protecting its sensitive documents? Why did it put is TRUST in a "pervert"?
Wow, this "pervert" managed to single-handedly demonstrate just how stupid the "greatest fighting force on earth" is.
How embarrassing.
I think you're just disgruntled that manning gave his country the finger, and was prepared to take the punishment for it.

Bullshit, the Apache gunship also shelled two kids in a vehicle that pulled up after the main slaughter of the group of men in that video he's talking about regarding the AKs & RPGs.
The children were in the vehicle with their dad. Their dad (a innocent civilian) pulled up to help a man that he saw laying dying by the side of the road to get him to a hospital, the Apache saw the kids & still shot fuck out of them, that was confirmed in US soldiers own reports & visible in the official video.
