- nullc 6y ago> Chelsea Manning was released in 2017. After her sentence was commutated by Obama, otherwise she would be in prison until at least 2045. She was recently placed back in jail for refusing to testify against Assange (instead referring the prosecution to her prior testimony), though she was released again after a year. I wouldn't take a bet against her ending up back in jail for a similar attempt at intimidation once the sham court in the UK sends Assange to the US to be executed for distributing the above video to the world.

Growing older should not mean your life is automatically worth less. Anyway, holding the soldiers accountable won't actually fix the problem. I think what happened here is the natural outcome of conditions created well before that group of soldiers arrived in the scene.
