Bradley Manning not guilty of “aiding the enemy,” convicted on 19 other counts
- mpyne 13y agoI like how WikiLeaks blames the Obama Administration for the actions taken by a military judge who doesn't report to Obama. For those who feel that Obama could simply order the judge to make a certain verdict, read up on "UCI"s and then apply that knowledge to the ongoing issues with sexual assault cases in the military (pay special attention to the cases where charges are being downgraded or thrown out entirely because Obama dared to mention that military members who commit sexual assaults should be punished). Perhaps WikiLeaks should read the Manual for Courts-Martial before they make factual accusations, so that the accusations will at least be plausible?
