Bradley Manning supporters hold vigil as trial verdict is due - London 27.07.2013
Supporters of US Army whistleblower Bradley Manning held a vigil on the steps of St. Martin's in the Fields church near Trafalgar Square to call for Manning to be released as the world waited to hear the trial judge's verdict. As we now know, the brave soldier who blew the whistle on US Army war crimes when he released thousands of US Army cables to Wikileaks, has been found guilty of espionage, but was found innocent of the absurd charge of 'aiding the enemy'. To date nobody has stood trial for the war crimes.

Whistle blower Bradley Manning & Wikileaks supporters rallied at the United States Marine Corps officer recruiting center yesterday in Berkeley California in solidarity with several rallies nationwide and at Ft. Meade Maryland where the young soldier is the subject of a hearing that could have all his charges dismissed based on unlawful pretrial punishment he received at the Quantico Marine Brig facility for nearly 10 months after his arrest.
At the November 27, 2012 hearing the Quantico base commander Col. Daniel Choike revealed in testimony that the military barred or delayed independent analyses of PFC Bradley Manning’s abusive confinement, claiming that Bradley’s defense could “exploit” such a review in the press, and instead sought reviews that would confirm and justify the military’s handling of the young private.
Col. Choike also revealed, near the day’s end, that he didn’t believe from the start that Bradley should have been kept at Quantico. The Marine brig, which had recently been in transition from a post-trial to a pre-trial confinement facility, was meant for short-term detention. Government lawyers told Col. Choike early on that they expected Bradley’s trial to last nearly two years, and Col. Choike told his superiors that he didn’t think Quantico was adequately resourced to hold Bradley for that long, and that Bradley shouldn’t be held there for more than 90 days at most. The military ignored Col. Choike’s qualms, clearly to Bradley’s detriment.
The Berkeley rally was followed by an action that took Shattuck street for several minutes and protesters faced off with police at Shattuck and Addison until a dispersal order was given. No arrests were made.
The hearing is scheduled to last until Sunday and Manning's court martial is set to start on February 4th of 2013.

Protest marks Bradley Manning's 1,000 days in prison - London, 23.02.2013
As part of a global day of action, protesters gathered at the US Embassy in London today to mark US Army Private Bradley Manning's 1,000th day in prison without trial over the leaking of classified US Army documents now known as the "Iraq War Logs" to whistleblowing website Wikileaks which revealed shocking details of war crimes committed by the US Army in Iraq, including the notorious "Collateral Damage" helicopter gunship cockpit video which showed American pilots indiscriminately murdering civilians and journalists.
Denied a speedy trial, and having been subjected to cruel and punitive treatment in military prisons which have been classified as torture by Amnesty International and other Human Rights organisations, Manning's supporters are calling for the US Army's prosecutors to stop hindering Manning's legal team access to important evidence at every turn.
Branded a traitor by many in the USA, and a hero by many others globally for exposing American crimes in Iraq, Manning is being charged under the US Espionage Act and an egregious “aiding the enemy” charge which could see him executed, even though it has been proven that not a single American has been harmed as a result of Manning's exposure of criminal behaviour. A spokesman from BradleyManning.org in the US said in a statement this week "There has never been a more important time to broadcast our message of support for exposing war crimes, international justice, and people's right to know what the government does in our name."
Interestingly, Bradley Manning's purported massive leak of documents - many of which detailed corruption, collusion and ex-judicial murder by various Middle Eastern despots - is said by many to have been the inspiration for the Arab Spring...
Groups supporting Manning at the American Embassy in London (owned by Qatari Diar Real Estate Investment Company) included 'Wise Up Action', 'Veterans for Peace UK', 'Queer Strike', 'All African Women's Network', 'Women Against Rape', 'PayDay Men's Network', 'London Catholic Worker' and 'OccupyLondon'.

Protest marks Bradley Manning's 1,000 days in prison - London, 23.02.2013
As part of a global day of action, protesters gathered at the US Embassy in London today to mark US Army Private Bradley Manning's 1,000th day in prison without trial over the leaking of classified US Army documents now known as the "Iraq War Logs" to whistleblowing website Wikileaks which revealed shocking details of war crimes committed by the US Army in Iraq, including the notorious "Collateral Damage" helicopter gunship cockpit video which showed American pilots indiscriminately murdering civilians and journalists.
Denied a speedy trial, and having been subjected to cruel and punitive treatment in military prisons which have been classified as torture by Amnesty International and other Human Rights organisations, Manning's supporters are calling for the US Army's prosecutors to stop hindering Manning's legal team access to important evidence at every turn.
Branded a traitor by many in the USA, and a hero by many others globally for exposing American crimes in Iraq, Manning is being charged under the US Espionage Act and an egregious “aiding the enemy” charge which could see him executed, even though it has been proven that not a single American has been harmed as a result of Manning's exposure of criminal behaviour. A spokesman from BradleyManning.org in the US said in a statement this week "There has never been a more important time to broadcast our message of support for exposing war crimes, international justice, and people's right to know what the government does in our name."
Interestingly, Bradley Manning's purported massive leak of documents - many of which detailed corruption, collusion and ex-judicial murder by various Middle Eastern despots - is said by many to have been the inspiration for the Arab Spring...
Groups supporting Manning at the American Embassy in London (owned by Qatari Diar Real Estate Investment Company) included 'Wise Up Action', 'Veterans for Peace UK', 'Queer Strike', 'All African Women's Network', 'Women Against Rape', 'PayDay Men's Network', 'London Catholic Worker' and 'OccupyLondon'.

I ask that you make your decision by Monday, and that you make your decision known".

After a speech and introduction by respected Australian journalist and film maker John Pilger, English rock musician Roger Waters, of Pink Floyd fame, performs outside the UK Home Office accompanied by Andy Fairweather Low at a rally against deportation of imprisoned Wikileaks publisher Julian Assange, who is currently detained at the high security Belmarsh prison following conviction for breach of bail.
Assange's supporters fear he will be deported to the U.S. and face life in prison for publishing information which includes incriminating evidence the U.S. and UK engaged in possible war crimes in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Since 2006 the WikiLeaks website has leaked more than 1 million sensitive diplomatic cables and has become a synonym of transparency for some and a significant menace for others. But has WikiLeaks strengthened democracy and will the disclosure of hundreds of thousands of secret documents change the way modern diplomats interact?
We asked two MEPs with very different views: Christian Engström (Greens/EFA) from the Swedish Pirate Party and former Slovak Foreign Minister Eduard Kukan (EPP).
Mr. Engström, the Pirate Party decided last year to host servers free of charge for the WikiLeaks website. You don't seem to consider WikiLeaks dangerous. Why not?
