Oh my.
The oblate spheroid's breaking her promise made less than 48 hours ago--ho-hum, what else is new--to refrain from littering General Discussion on Skins's island.

Three-Star General Was Behind Harsh Treatment of Bradley Manning, Defense Alleges
According to military e-mails released to Manning’s defense, a three-star general was the force behind the marching orders to hold Manning as a maximum-custody detainee under prevention-of-injury watch, or POI — orders that resulted in severe conditions at the Marine Corps brig in Quantico, Virginia, that left Manning isolated and repeatedly mistreated by his guards.
Defense attorney David Coombs disclosed the contents of the e-mails in a post published on his blog on Friday. He did not publish the actual e-mails.
Coombs called the treatment a “flagrant violation†of his client’s right to not be punished prior to trial and has filed a motion asking for the charges against Manning to be dismissed based on the allegedly unlawful treatment.
“These e-mails reveal that the senior Brig officer who ordered PFC Manning to be held in MAX and in POI was receiving his marching orders from a three-star general,†Coombs wrote on his blog. “They also reveal that everyone at Quantico was complicit in the unlawful pretrial punishment, from senior officers to enlisted soldier.â€

No, I am not surprised if true, and will leave it at that.

Yeah, I really am becoming concerned about poor stupid Beth, who hasn't been hanging around Skins's island for some time now, and the oblate spheroid's about to take her first-place post-count trophy away.

He was kept in a manner to prevent himself from harming himself. The DUmmies always talk about teh ghey suicides and how sensitive they are to bullying. The brass was looking out for his safety.
Dismiss the charges because of his treatment? Give the Menendz brothers leniency since they were orphans?

Bradly Manning should have been swinging at the end of a rope a long time ago.

I don't know about that. The crazy bald dwarf has 107K posts.
I don't remember the number, but I think poor stupid Beth is over 200K.
Of course, poor crazy Beth has probably 100K posts that say simply "lol".
