Besides, you seem to think it is just desserts for him to be treated this way, so why do you doubt the veracity?
We have already established that the claims on the website are exaggerations and that several of the takes here on it are deliberate misconceptions Kaz. Let me turn the question around. By what reason should I blindly trust it's veracity like you seem so ready to? I can't believe you're part of the crowd who believes Manning is being starved for oxygen are you?

But it won't help bring our soldiers home, we're in this until we win or loose and some low level classified documents are going to change that. What it will do however is lend assistance to the enemies war effort by giving them insight into our operational practices and procedures. If that's not a traitorous act then nothing is.
