>Further, youre alright with Americans being exposed and/or killed b/c of it?

There's no evidence of this. Since the leaks were about embarrassing unprosecuted US military murders of civilians arguably it saved lives by driving them to be more careful.



There is no evidence of this that you are aware of.

this is absolute nonsense

Then if the prosecutors are unable to present said evidence, should he be free to go?


Is there evidence that you are aware of?


Does there need to be? No. An E-3 isn't in the position to know whether it will or won't and its pretty fucking arrogant to assume that risk. Do you know that it saved lives? No you don't. You couldnt, and whether it did or did not, it wasn't Manning's call to make.


That's what I figured. Not all of us are American sycophants, so yes, more than the word and reputation of the American military is needed.
