Whether convicted or not, Manning was found guilty of disclosing tens of thousands of classified documents to someone/some organization Manning knew that was intent on publicly disclosing that information, thus aiding an enemy in a time of war, aka, treason. Manning may not have been convicted of treason, but it is obvious from the crimes Manning was convicted of, and the circumstances under which the crimes were committed, that treason was committed. IANAL, but it seems to me that given the conviction they were able to get, prosecution could have easily gotten a treason conviction as well. Seems to me to have been more of a political play. Obama got a "win" in being tough on leakers of classified info, got a tough sentence, and then with a wink of the eye on the way out the door after 2 terms commutes the sentence (yes, not a full pardon). Like I said, stinks of political interference and nothing to do about the totality of the crime(s) committed.
