#1 Since there is a Facebook page for supporting PFC Manning, maybe somebody should set up a page in support of convicting him of treason, accessory to murder, and other crimes.

#2 isnt' that nice. I'm sure these people will all be there for him when he is either alone in the prison shower or in a dark alley running scared from the shadows of dead seeking revenge against him. This planet is not big enough for this guy to find safe hiding place.

Enjoy the 15 minute parade, Manning.

#3 His is a one way ticket to ADX Florence. There is no other future for him in the stars. Jonathan Pollard lives in FCC Butner, John Walker is at MCFP Springfield (because he has throat cancer), but like former FBI agent Robert Hanssen, PFC Manning will spend the rest of his natural life in ADX Florence.

#4 well, that's about the best he can hope for, isn't it? I suspect that he will try to law low from those whom he betrayed by his actions. But one day, some low level bureaucrat, entrusted with keeping his information private, will dump on in the internet for all of his enemies to see, resulting in his own betrayl.

#5 In the logs, Manning said he had seen "incredible things, awful things" in classified government files. It's "important that it gets out . . . I feel, for some bizarre reason," he said.

I would think creating a situation where troops, ours and allies, are put in imminent danger could be called ... "some bizarre reason."
