Bradley Manning
is the 24-year-old U.S. Army intelligence analyst imprisoned and accused of
leaking over 260,000 classified United States diplomatic cables, as well as
videos and documents which have become known as the Afghan War Diary and the
Iraq War Logs. Published on the whistleblower site Wikileaks, these documents shed light on U.S. war crimes
around the world.

 

The third
pre-trial hearing of Bradley Manning began on Tuesday, April 24th.
Bradley faces 22 charges, including “giving intelligence to the enemy through
indirect means” and “aiding the enemy.” Already, the military judge has denied a
defense request to dismiss all of the charges as the prosecution is intentionally
withholding evidence needed to prepare Manning’s defense. The actual trial has now been
tentatively scheduled from September 21st to October 12th.



From
April 24th to 26th, peace-loving people from all over the world will be coming
out onto the streets to expose the sham trial of Bradley Manning and to demand
that he be freed immediately. Bradley Manning is a hero that should be
celebrated for his courageous actions, not on trial in a U.S. military court! 

 

Mobilization
Against War & Occupation (MAWO) has joined
and endorsed the international
week of actions supporting Bradley Manning. Join MAWO in Vancouver along with over
fourteen cities world-wide to demand:
