Proponents and supporters rallied Sunday at the gates of the military fort where Monday has started martial of Private Bradley Manning more than three years after his arrest in Iraq accused of downloading documents from the secret services, diplomatic cables and videos of fighting that sent the WikiLeaks organization, representing the biggest leak ever suffered by the United States (about 700,000 records).
The prosecutor said at the beginning of the hearing that the officer leaked the secret information systematically and being aware that the enemy could use: "It is not a case about the leak of a few documents, is a case about a soldier who systematically obtained hundreds of thousands of classified documents and put them online, risking the lives of soldiers, "said Capt. Joe Morrow, the team of prosecutors, Efe reported.
In a military court, Manning, 25, will plead guilty to 10 of the 22 charges brought military justice, he said one of his lawyers, David Coombs said at a hearing last February. Manning could be sentenced to life without parole because one of the charges he faces is "aiding the enemy", which carries the death penalty, and another of violating the Espionage Act 1917, which also could lead to spending the rest of his days in a military prison.
On May 21, the military judge Denise Lind closed a year and a half of visits schools and fixed the rules for the trial to be held under tight security at Fort Meade
On May 21, the military judge Denise Lind closed a year and a half of visits schools and fixed the rules for the trial to be carried out under tight security at Fort Meade, about 50 miles northeast of Washington, in the State of Maryland, and that will not end until the end of August. There, gathered on Sunday, unable to cross the security perimeter imposed by the military authorities since Nathan Fuller, one of the organizers of the demonstration and supporter of the cause of Manning since his arrest-to Daniel Ellsberg, a former Pentagon official that in the late sixties leaked to The New York Times secret documents from the U.S. administration about the war in Vietnam.
Gone were the nine months that Manning spent in 2010 on remand in the Marine base at Quantico (Virginia), isolation of the possibility that he committed suicide, forcing him to sleep naked without his glasses, enclosed in a square-foot cell 23 hours out of 24 in the day, and end imprisonment in April 2011 at Fort Leavenworth (Kansas), where he has been transferred to Fort Meade for trial.
Manning, for the first time since his arrest in May 2010, presented last March his reasons for doing what he did and that cost him freedom. "A noble cause," said this young shy looking quietly hidden behind glasses. Still wearing military uniform will do so until he is taken away when he was found guilty, Manning stated that he believed that "if the public had access to information could open a debate about the role the U.S. Army, war and American foreign policy. "
They will be found guilty is a reality, as the defense strategy orchestrated in March to accept a series of positions that guarantee 20 years in prison
They will be found guilty is a reality, as the defense strategy orchestrated in March to accept a series of positions that guarantee 20 years in prison, but at least try to answer the charge of "aiding the enemy". "Are you aware that there is no possibility to find him not guilty, you understand that?" He asked, almost motherly, Judge. "Yes," admitted the soldier serene.
According to Elizabeth Goitein, head of Freedom and Security Program National Brennan Center for Justice, Manning's trial is "probably the most dramatic example of the use by the Administration of the Espionage Act to prosecute leaks of information to the media. "
Coombs, attorney for the soldier, has repeatedly criticized the slowness with which it has taken the case and secrecy that has enveloped all previews and coverage of the media. More than 20 witnesses will be made behind closed doors, as the judge has ruled, including several ambassadors, Pentagon officials or experts in espionage. One of the Navy Seals who took part in the operation that killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan, also no witnesses or testify Press. The seal shall declare that the stolen documents leaked by Manning and Wikileaks, that spread-were found in the shelter of the leader of Al Qaeda, which prove that the papers were leaked to the terrorist organization.
Manning has received many definitions: Young misfit: impassioned patriot gay activist, hacker wannabe, discarding soldier ... In the days that are coming, a war council to decide the most important of all, the one that will define his life forever jail or will someday walk in freedom: "collaborator with the enemy." Traitor.
