This is crazy. If he had used IE "Save as a file", he wouldn't have been convicted of fraud?

  That's what some people might believe, after focusing on the minutiae of the charges. I wouldn't bet on it though. Manning shamed and embarrassed his chain of command, the gov't at large, the military at large, the diplomatic corps, etc, etc. He was always going to get the book thrown at him; and the only thing that might have stopped it is widespread public outrage.
