Manning revealed a few or the war crimes committed by those who volunteered to serve in an illegal invasion and occupation. He deserves time served, and Dick Cheney deserves to have his (plastic) heart blown out of his ass.Giving classified info to be publically published is damn sure akin to adhering to their enemies."According to the United States Constitution, Article III, § 3, 'Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.No, for the crime of treason.

And, take it up with his JAG representatives, as to why they keep seeking delays.
The dirty rat bastard at the very least needs to do hard time for life at Leavenworth, but more deserves to have his heart blown clean out of his back.

They prefer government propaganda to truth.
WELL WELL WELL!
Since he has now admitted in open court, by way of a guilty plea, to SOME of the charges, there is no longer anything to worry about when it comes to Manning's pretrial delay.
After being tortured in the finest traditions of the US Armed Forces:WELL WELL WELL!

And no reason to for the Wikitards cheerleaders to keep beating it to death since the guy who did it admitted he was wrong.
The better question is "Why would a PFC be given access to that kind of information in the first place?"
Access to information that could harm the US should only be granted to officers and senior NCOs.
"In December, 2011, I wrote an Op-Ed in the Guardian arguing that if Bradley Manning did what he is accused of doing, then he is a consummate hero, and deserves a medal and our collective gratitude, not decades in prison.He should have been hung long ago...

"At his court-martial proceeding this afternoon in Fort Meade, Manning, as the Guaridan's Ed Pilkington reports, pleaded guilty to having been the source of the most significant leaks to WikiLeaks.
"He also pleaded not guilty to 12 of the 22 counts, including the most serious - the capital offense of 'aiding and abetting the enemy', which could send him to prison for life - on the ground that nothing he did was intended to nor did it result in harm to US national security. The US government will now almost certainly proceed with its attempt to prosecute him on those remaining counts."

Hang Dick and Dubya first.
"Manning explained that he was leaking because he wanted the world to know what he had learned: 'I want people to see the truth regardless of who they are because without information, you cannot make informed decisions as a public.'
Serving a sentence for civil disobedience that's been handed down in a courtroom is certainly to be expected. Manning has yet to receive a sentence, and it appears that the "security and surveillance" state is more interested in making his case an example of what all future whistle-blowers can expect."Manning explained that he was leaking because he wanted the world to know what he had learned: 'I want people to see the truth regardless of who they are because without information, you cannot make informed decisions as a public.'
That all may be true, but he broke the law to do it. If he were practicing civil disobedience, then part of that is serving the jail time as the price.
Not that abuses, such as My Lai and Abu Gharib and others were exposed without breaking any laws or making classified information available to the enemy.
