Bradley Manning
Dec 27th, 2011 at 12:22pm
 
At a time when it's becoming clear that the West's financial non-system is as phony as anything ever concocted by the USSR; the Bradley Manning case shows that the treatment of dissidents is just as phony,

"They hate us for our freedoms" Said GWB on launching the 'war against terror'. But if Bradley Manning and Wikileaks were Iranian, Cuban, Venezualan, Syrian, the Imperium would be hailing them as dissidents.

What utter crap.

A dissident is someone who disagrees with a system - not someone who steals, then passes on classified government documents.

Nobody in Cuba has ever been charged with 'disagreeing with the system'.

What on earth do you expect the authorities to do?

He stole.

The last I heard that's a crime. That he stole classified govt documents is an even bigger crime.

It's not like he's fronting court because he said things against the US government on some lame arse blog.

I don't give a damn where he got the documents from, but a lot of people are eternally grateful that the truth was told.

He's a hero in my opinion.

I donate to the Bradley Manning Support Network.

Here we go:

We need more Bradley Manning's and many more Julian Assange's.

Truth and Democracy against the 1%
