private Bradley Manning made a choice to expose a set of severe wrongs in the execution of the Iraq War. He acted with amazing courage in doing this, and has suffered a quite severe violation of his human rights and dignity. I believe Bradley Manning did something unambiguously good, and has made his sacrifices in the pursuit of peace, and in accordance with his morality and deep personal convictions.
I urge on the president of the United States to directly intervene and pardon former private Bradley Manning and set him free from prosecution at once. This poor guy has suffered enough, and his life, health and sanity has already been ruined by excessive treatment in while kept arrested. Enough is enough.
I do remind you the world is watching this case closely.
