I have opinion on what it says except this is troubling. Not sure it is tax payers burden. Coombes said he is "hoping" that Fort Leavenworth "would do the right thing" and provide hormone therapy for Manning.

Jingthing Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) I don't know much about the case so have no opinion about his conviction. But on the rights of transgender people in prisons, I think they deserve basic human consideration. I wouldn't expect surgery but I would support psychological screening first and then if legit, give him hormones.

Ulysses G. Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Manning will be in a miltary prison doing hard labor with very strict guards. No matter how much time he ends up doing, he will very much regret violating his secrecy oath. I don't think either you or I would have the slightest idea what he would regret. Then only one of us has been in the military and it is not you. Doing hard labor at Leavenworth for at least 8 years - probably much longer - would make anyone regret doing whatever they did to get there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He commented specifically on the Apache attack helicopter video that recorded the slaughter of a dozen civilians in Baghdad on 12 July 2007. Two of those killed worked for the Reuters news agency, cameraman Namir Noor-Eldeen, 22, and his driver, Saeed Chmagh, a father of four " The most alarming aspect of the video to me was the seeming delightful blood-lust the aerial weapons team happened to have. They dehumanized the individuals they were engaging and seemed to not value human life, and referred to them as quote-unquote 'dead bastards,' and congratulated each other on their ability to kill in large numbers. ...

midas Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 (edited) Not from a military prison, and review board. Killing someone and being sorry, maybe. Disclosing national secrets and failing to do you duty? That wont be taken too kindly in a military environment. This wont be a soft bodied and soft minded civilian review board. 35 years is too short IMO. but I'm from a military family. jamhar of course it is so easy to dismiss and ridicule someone like Bradley Manning but, if you say you come from a military family I'm curious as to what you think about the overall views of Col. Lawrence Wilkerson , who has had said some pretty controversial things recently regarding the Bradley Manning case (as well as controversial comments about a slew of other matters) It's a bit harder to ridicule the likes of the Col. Wilkerson because of his credentials (i.e. Former chief of staff for U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, Adjunct Professor of Government at the College of William and Mary) “ This is a case( Bradley Manning ) that is symptomatic of a disease in this country right now. And the disease is constant war. Bradley Manning, Edward Snowden, Tom Drake at the NSA, for example, these people are not a problem that America needs to deal with. They are symptoms of the disease that America needs to deal with. And that disease is a constant state of war. We've been at war now longer than any time in our history, and we're manifesting all the things that, for example, our founders told us would be manifested in an interminable state of war. We're doing things to our people we shouldn't be doing, like this massive surveillance program. We're using drones in an indiscriminate way around the world. We're building up the military-industrial-congressional complex to the point where it is actually competing with the corporatocracy that's running this country, with the plutocracy that leads this country. We're doing all sorts of things that are tyrannical, all sorts of things that are very dangerous for this country.” Col. Lawrence Wilkerson http://therealnews.com/t2/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=31&Itemid=74&jumival=10510 Do you agree with him? Have tyrants taken over the US military and government?

Have tyrants taken over the US military and government? hey midas. I edited the quote box for brevity. First of all, I Iove being from a military family. Loved it and Proud of it. If you're from a military family, you know that the US military is huge. And as in any large organization you can have people with all sorts of beliefs and political leanings. So I'm not surprised that there are dissident views. But regardless of your views, you follow your orders, and you keep your commitments to the service. Have tyrants taken over the military? The military has a mission. Its not a powder puff one. To carry out their mission, it maybe necessary to do horrible stuff. The possible ending of someones life, justified or not, is always horrible. "self defense", "it was war" ect. So the people in charge of the military are people that have the resolved to do horrible things if necessary. Tyrants? No.. But capable of killing? Yes, that's why we have them. Has the Government been taken over by Tyrants? To be honest, when Obama was running. I thought he was a Dove. I was skeptical, but still voted for him. But IMO, Obama is walking that fine line between a Dove and a Hawk. If he was a true hawk, the US would have been involved with Syria, LONG time ago. Regarding the colonel, he says some pretty wild stuff that i don't agree with. But he can have his views because he's retired and is now a civi. “This could have been an Israeli false flag operation,” he said. “You’ve got basically a geo-strategically, geo-political — if you will — inept regime in Tel Aviv right now.” Retired Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, former Chief of Staff to Colin Powell during the Bush administration, talks about how President Obama should handle early evidence that Syria may have used chemicals weapons. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article34813.htm Inept? That goes contrary to his statement. Either the Israelis are incredibly capable, and are pulling this deception off, or they are inept and could not do this other than my mere accident. So no I wont ridicule him, but I certainly do not agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
