As the US government claims war on whistleblowers and demands the extradition of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and others, the case of Bradley Manning has been brought to light once again. The US Army soldier who allegedly revealed government secrets has been jailed for over two years and reportedly tortured for "aiding the enemy."
