My feelings about this is that Bradley Manning is a hero for exposing war crimes, and that his being held without trial for nineteen months is woefully unjust. Obviously his queerness (whether his sexuality or gender identity) is relevant in that it must have influenced his psychological makeup, but I just really wish it was possible to simply argue that he was justified in leaking classified documents because the world deserved to know about the moral transgressions of the U.S. military.
