The persecution and prosecution of Bradley Manning
#22
Quote:Bradley Manning, the US soldier accused of passing secret materials to Wikileaks, has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

*The nomination was proposed by The Movement of Icelandic Parliament, which asserts that revelations produced by the documents Manning allegedly exposed "have helped to fuel a worldwide discussion about America's overseas engagements, civilian war casualties, imperialistic manipulations, and rules of engagement."

This is of course well meant. But as you stated in post # 18:

Quote:The Prez has already passed judgment (guilty) on him, and he is obviously going to get about as unfair a legal 'deal' as they can manage.

So we may have one Nobel Peace Prize winner utterly adverse to another Nobel Peace Prize winner.

Maybe Manning will be proud enough to refuse to accept that Prize?
