33. He was crucified. What are you talking about? He SHOULD have received a medal, if we can give

medals to torturers then we should give them to those courageous soldiers who expose the torturers.

But we are not that kind of free country. We honor War Criminals at the White House and we throw heroes, like Manning, in jail and we torture them and ruin their lives and careers and reputations, as was done to Drake and Binney.

Manning was crucified. In the end he didn't get the Death Penalty and we are supposed to be happy about that???

Unbelievable to see the support for the persecution of Whistle Blowers, like him, because he exposed BUSH'S war crimes. Can't believe anyone on DU is defending Bush's crimes, but they are.
