That really sucks. Anyone who knew the details of the "top secret" she leaked was basically proof of war crimes committed by U.S. military personnel wouldn't care about her conviction, especially since her sentence was commuted and she wouldn't be able to join the Canadian military to ever be put in a position to do something like that again. It's probably at least in part political since there are still people screaming for her blood and they want no part in it.

I think you are completely wrong in your belief that all Manning did was leaked "proof of war crimes". Manning leaked tens of thousands of pages of highly classified info. It included names of covert agents, their families as well as code ciphers. The damage to National security goes far beyond what you so glibly refer to.

Manning should fade away and be thankful she's not still in jail.

Yes!
Considering nothing good can come from this thread and it has not nothing to do with the fact she is trans and just about what she did before transitioning.
