There are details and a link at the bottom of the article for what you can do to help Bradley Manning. A well-informed phone call is in order. From the article: Defense team now expected to motion for dismissal of charges for ‘lack of evidence’ Take action for Brad see below article After 14 days and 80 witnesses, the United States government prosecuting Pfc. Bradley Manning in the long-awaited trial against the military whistleblower has rested their case. As Manning’s defense team prepares to present their case next week, they are hoping Manning’s prospects have risen after the government was forced to close their portion of the trial with an “embarrassing admission” that the Army had misplaced Manning’s military contract, the Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) , which laid out the terms of his access to classified information. Over three years after being arrested for leaking details of military atrocities and intelligence to WikiLeaks, Manning is on trial for 21 charges including aiding the enemy, which carries a possible life sentence. All of the trial transcripts are made available to the public via the Freedom of the Press Foundation, which has led a grassroots initiative to crowd-fund a stenographer for the duration of the trial. Suggested Action from the Bradley Manning Support Network: Call the new general in charge of Manning’s case, remind General Buchanan that Bradley Manning’s rights have been trampled – Enough is enough!
