WikiLeaks is a right wing website, PERIOD

23. There are right ways to do things and wrong ways...

She did it in a reckless manner, which exposed herself to the fullest degree of retribution by the state. There was no protection for her by dumping all of that data into Assange's lap.

I hate to say this, but she practically begged to be prosecuted. Perhaps she looks at herself as a martyr, but it was a self-induced martyrdom.

There were always alternatives for her, that had nothing to do with Assange. The first thing that she should have done was to see whether or not she was bound by a non-disclosure agreement, secondly she should have consulted a lawyer. Thirdly she should have worked through her chain of command and lastly she should have exhausted all of her options before going to her congressperson.

She also could have separated from the military and worked to expose those crimes from the outside.

I'm sorry, but I have very little sympathy for her over her prosecution, in spite of the fact that I detest the actual actions by the military that she exposed.
