By Marjorie Cohn
Army Pfc. Bradley Manning is accused of leaking military secrets to the public. This week, his supporters are holding rallies in 21 cities, seeking Manning's release from military custody. Manning is in the brig for allegedly disclosing a classified video depicting U.S. troops shooting civilians from an Apache helicopter in Iraq in July 2007. The video, available at www.collateralmurder.com, was published by WikiLeaks on April 5, 2010. Manning faces 52 years in prison. No charges have been filed against the soldiers in the video.

Here it comes: with the bizarre "rape-no rape" charges against Julian Assange, the War Machine's assault against Wikileaks has now begun in earnest.
These days, the powers-that-be don't go straight to the shiv in the back or the poison in the drink or the faked suicide or the tragic car accident on a dark road; no, today we are a bit more circumspect in taking down high-profile irritants of empire. The modern way is to begin the takedown with a smear campaign -- preferably some sort of ""moral turpitude" to sully their public image and discredit their entire cause.

Get in touch with us if you need a DVD copy of Collateral Murder. We are distributing copies of the video along with the Afghan War Diary documents. Contact us.
Report from the Bay Area (also see Collateral Eye Opening…):
Our team set up just after dark on Shattuck Avenue, outside a closed store, and started letting passersby know they could watch this video with us. As our crew set up the projector, movie screen, and loudspeaker we also started giving out flyers: “More War Crimes Exposed – Now What Do We Do?” and on the back, the Open Letter of Reconciliation and Responsibility to the Iraqi People written by Ethan McCord and Josh Stieber. (Ethan and Josh were both members of Bravo Company 2-16, the unit shown in the video as it murders 12 Iraqi civilians. Ethan is seen in the footage, the soldier running for help with a wounded Iraqi child in his arms).
Manning to Country: End These Insane Wars!

How many million are dead from our wars? How many troops by now are dead or are doomed to lives of physical and mental debilitation? I wonder how Obama and Gates et al. look at themselves in the mirror every morning. I wonder if there is still a reflection that appears to them.
Of course, Obama and Secretary of Defense Gates did manage to address the Wikileaks' issue from their bully pulpits before Obama this week began a masterful shell game of distracting from the horrors in Afghanistan with Iraq faux-success.
But last week, Obama and Gates couldn't say enough in their righteously performed sound bites about how concerned they are that innocent Afghans may NOW be in jeopardy as well as our poor troops from the leaked disclosures.
