The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur felt Friday evening that it was time
for the U.S. government to release U.S. Army Pfc. Bradley Manning from
prison.

Nineteen months after being arrested, the trial for the Wikileaks
information provider finally began on Friday. Manning is facing 22
charges, including “unauthorized release of half a million reports and
cables” and “aiding the enemy.”

If convicted of the latter charge, Manning could face even the death
penalty, despite the U.S. government indicating that no one has been
injured from the leaks or that the leaks were classified as top
secret.

Between the questionable charges and the harsh treatment in jail he
has received, Uygur thought it was time to let Manning go.

“He did our soldiers a world of good,” he said. “Time served is plenty
enough time. Scooter Libby served no time and he betrayed a CIA agent.
That caused real harm. Dick Cheney — no time. Karl Rove — no time.
It’s time to free Bradley Manning.”

AMEN!!!

Since the citizens of the government of the USA IS the government, we
elect public servants to simply carry out their will and act in their
best interests, citizens should always be as well informed as possible
-- to deny citizens the knowledge and data needed to make informed
decisions is, and always will be, a direct action of treason. Lying by
omission or deception is still lying ... DUH!

Classifying data simply to control the citizens, or for personal gain
for public servants and/or their puppet masters, should always be a
crime punishable by death ... too many have already managed to put their
punishment off, or appear to be escaping them.
