Regarding Bradley Manning. ACTION REQUEST

(google translated)

I do mean to say that everything Wikileaks does is correct, but is pretty sure that the imprisonment of Bradley Manning, is wrong. Given that [we] still go into armed conflicts - and that the information allegedly leaked, known as Collateral murder, classified or not, is and was important to nuance the picture and understand the consequences of armed conflict. Given that the U.S. under Obama's Nobel Peace Prize-management, appears to have a completely different strategy, supposedly, "protecting civilians" is in focus, which Bradley Manning's offense basically is. It will therefore serve both the United States, Obama, etc. if we all can start focusing on our common goals. Let us not forget that Mannings crime is a reflection of the "old America" from 1980's cold war 90's Iraq invasion, 20s attack on the axes of evil. From my point of view, from CNN, Al Jazeera, Twitter, YouTube, acquaintances in North Africa, friends and family in the United States, friends of friends in the US marine corps, family in the Norwegian military, family in the NATO forces. Its just wrong. Both war - and the imprisonment of Bradley Manning. Now please, go give Obama a call and request the release of Bradley Manning. Someone have to do it. Sincerely,
