    For those too lazy to read it.. here is a little excerpt

    A Prevention of Injury order is one stop short of suicide watch. It entails checks by guards every five minutes, and no sleeping during the day. His lawyer said he was not allowed to sleep between 5 am (7 am at weekends) and 8 pm, and if he tried to, was made to stand or sit up. He was required to remain visible at all times, including at night, which entailed no access to sheets, no pillow except one built into his mattress, and a blanket designed not to be shredded. Until March 2011 he was required to sleep in boxer shorts, and had experienced chafing of the skin from the heavy blanket.[31] On March 2, he was told that an Article 138 complaint filed in January by his lawyer—asking that he be removed from maximum custody and prevention-of-injury watch—had been denied. His lawyer said Manning subsequently joked to the guards that, if he wanted to harm himself, he could do so "with the elastic waistband of his underwear or with his flip-flops." This resulted in him being required to sleep without clothing and present himself naked outside his cell for morning inspection, which his lawyer described as ritual humiliation, though from around March 10 onwards he was given a wrap-around smock with Velco fasteners to sleep in. In response to the incident, the brig psychiatrist classified him as at low risk of suicide.

    Manning exposes serious crimes (violations of the American military's Uniform Code of Military Justice, violations of the rules in US Army Field Manual 27-10, and violations of international law) committed by the US government and military --- and he is sent away to be tortured, while no one in the American government was held responsible for the crimes exposed by Manning.

    Nice freedom.

    Canadian? It seems to me that if you are Canadian you would thanks US that you dont have to spend any money at all on your civil defense because the Americans are your guardian angels. If you're attacked I highly doubt your Royal Canadian mounted police will be able to shoot missiles down on their horses.

    Not really. Bradley Manning has nothing to do with Canada -- and Swinger didn't do anything to address mine or Chile's points.
