Press Release: Military moves to further isolate Bradley Manning
April 19, 2011 | Bradley Manning Support Network
MILITARY MOVES TO FURTHER ISOLATE BRADLEY MANNING WITH TRANSFER TO KANSAS
Alleged WikiLeaks source to be moved away from attorney and DC-area backers;
however, Kansas residents already preparing to spearhead support
“The military and Administration has been shocked by the support Bradley
Manning has garnered globally–specifically at the gates of Quantico,
Virginia. Last month, 500 supporters rallied near the Marine brig where PFC
Manning has been held since August 2010. It wasn’t a secret that we were
preparing to rally one to two thousand for an upcoming DC-area pre-trial
hearing,†explains Jeff Paterson of Courage to Resist and the Bradley
Manning Support Network.
“PFC Manning’s transfer from Virginia to Kansas limits his access to his
civilian attorney David Coombs of Rhode Island. It also severely limits
visitation opportunities by his East Coast family and friends,†explains
attorney Kevin Zeese, an organizer with the Bradley Manning Support Network.
Congressman Dennis Kucinich declared today, “Any move of PFC Manning does
not change the underlying fact, which has not been disputed by the
Department of Defense, that he has been held under conditions which may in
fact constitute ‘cruel and unusual punishment’ in violation of the 8th
amendment.â€
Ethan McCord, Kansas resident and a former Soldier who appears in the
“Collateral Murder†video that PFC Manning is accused of leaking, declares,
“Bradley Manning is accused of doing nothing more than heroically telling
the truth. I and many others here in Kansas are already planning support
actions at Leavenworth.â€
“I’m concerned that the military is simply moving to further isolate PFC
Manning. The idea that Quantico brig commander CWO2 Denise Barnes, without
direction from above, imposed and maintained the current torturous
conditions of PFC Manning’s detention is ridiculous. However, we will demand
that Army officials at Leavenworth finally take responsibility for
correcting this ongoing injustice. I know many hold out hope for them to do
so,†adds Paterson.
US Army intelligence analyst Private First Class Bradley E Manning,
23-years-old, has been held in maximum and solitary-like confinement
conditions since his arrest in Iraq in May 2010. He still awaits his first
public court hearing, now expected to begin in June. Over 300 of America’s
top legal scholars have decried PFC Manning’s confinement conditions as in
clear violation of the US Constitution. Over 3,500 individuals have
contributed over $280,000 towards PFC Manning’s legal fees and related
public education efforts. Over 500,000 people recently signed a statement to
President Obama calling for an end to PFC Manning’s torturous conditions of
confinement. The Bradley Manning Support Network is dedicated to winning the
freedom of PFC Manning.

I'm outraged over this too. He is a ****ing traitor and should have been shot at dawn like in the old days.

3. Hard to know, at this point.
But it's difficult to hope for the best when the Pentagon has seen fit to mistreat this American right in our faces and with Obama's public approval. :shrug:
He is no American. He may have been born as a citizen, but he betrayed his country, he betrayed my country.

11. It's pretty bizarre to see this cr@P being justified. n/t
lol

F'er should have assumed room temperature a long time ago.

What, ****er hasn't heard of air travel yet?
And yeah, moving him to flyover country pretty much makes any attempt at demonstration inconvenient for the Code Pinkos, et al.
Poor Bradley--his 15 minutes of cause celebre are pretty much done. Suck it up, bitch.

If the Rethugs can defeat the Kenyan in 2012, it would be so nice to see this traitor moved to detention at Guantanamo. Can you imagine the outcry from the DUmp?

Being shot is a soldier's death. Traitors should be hanged--at dawn.

The treasonous, unstable little prancer is a poster child for keeping DADT or just totally banning homos from service, Obama and the Dems are probably secretly wishing he was room temperature too.
-
He betrayed his country and his oath. Sum bitch should be thankfull they haven't done a neck measurement on him yet.

Dr. Mudd, doctor of John Wilkes Booth, was put in an unheated, unaircondition cell, in a prison infested with yellow fever in the Florida keys with no running water, no toilet, straw on the floor for a bed and no lawyers, no vistors. ....and that wasn't considered cruel and unusual punishment... and that sounds good enough to me for Manning.

As a matter of fact they're renovating Dry Tortugas right now. Maybe they should ship his lil fairy ass on down to do something good for a change. A stint of public service work will look good at his sentencing. :fuelfire:

Their IS a silver lining for us...
for all the lament over Manning...its not Bush but a Liberal administration who is doing this. The DUmmies are re-writing torture to fit being stripped naked in solitary, and no one cares. Their is no media outrage. No media notice. Manning is forgotten by all but the loons.
All the outrage and angst. wasted without a media to exploit.
Code Pink is ignored.
Manning is ignored.
Gitmo is still in business.
Two on going wars still being fought.
A new war started.
The democrat agenda stalled for two years by a GOP House.
Ya know. it SUCKS to be a DUmmy.

I'd love to see him moved to Guantanamo, but as soon as the 2012 election is out of the way, it wouldn't surprise me if the muslim gave him a pardon.
Remember, the president has a different definition of "enemy" than we do.

Thread winner!

That traitor is still alive?!?
Firing squad time. :wink:

Unfortunately, I would tend to agree with you. The Obamessiah is capable of doing almost anything to make the USA look bad.

Sa bad as that sounds ,this would be a bad thing for little brad. Set free by NOBAMA and set loose upon the world would mean something terrible could happen to little brad and he would be left to fend for himself. Now if he were to stay in confinment he would have protection 24/7/365 for years at taxpayers expense. Not that the guards would want to do it, they would have to do it.

He's just an insignificant little homo.
He'd just disappear into the gay bars and bathhouses for a few years until the virus or an OD took him down.
