Bradley Manning faces the death penalty or life in prison, accused of exposing the truth about America’s wars in the Middle East, and exposing government corruption and lies around the world.
As an army intelligence analyst stationed in Eastern Baghdad in 2010, Bradley objected to the US Army’s complicity in the torture of innocent Iraqis. He was rebuffed by his commanding officers and ultimately imprisoned for allegedly leaking evidence of US war crimes to Wikileaks.
The cables that Bradley is accused of leaking have been a catalyst for pro-democracy movements in the Arab world, have exposed the unjust detainment of innocent people at Guantanamo Bay, shown us the true human cost of our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and changed journalism forever.
After nearly a year of pre-trial solitary confinement, Bradley is currently being held at a military detention facility in Kansas. He is accused of nothing more than telling the truth.
Why “I Am Bradley Manning”?
There is no evidence that anyone has died as a result of the leaked information, yet Bradley faces life in prison or possibly death. The greatest charge against him is that of “aiding the enemy,” a capital offense. As the public who benefited from this information, are we really “the enemy?”
Think of this as an online demonstration.
