Do a little research into what happens to govt whistleblowers...it ain't pretty.

Roundtable discussion with previous whistleblowers.

Truer words never spoken.

I'm not a judge or lawyer, so I wouldn't say "crime", just what happened & first hand accounts from others who've recited similar situations. The court of history will make that judgement, I'm sure.

To make an inflammatory point, the SS boots on the ground "just followed orders", too. That doesn't mean their RoE was right or lacking a criminal side, though.

huh?
every single whistleblower in the usa has been pardoned or have their charges reduced to non-felony charges

it's very pretty, snowden is an idiot for not seeing that and choosing to run to an enemy state.

Pigshit.

excerpt from the field manual

Section II. CRIMES UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW
498. Crimes Under International Law
Any person, whether a member of the armed forces or a civilian, who commits an act which constitutes a crime under international law is responsible therefor and liable to punishment. Such offenses in connection with war comprise:

a. Crimes against peace.

b. Crimes against humanity.

c. War crimes.

Although this manual recognizes the criminal responsibility of individuals for those offenses which may comprise any of the foregoing types of crimes, members of the armed forces will normally be concerned, only with those offenses constituting "war crimes."

499. War Crimes
The term "war crime" is the technical expression for a violation of the law of war by any person or persons, military or civilian. Every violation of the law of war is a war crime.

500. Conspiracy, Incitement, Attempts, and Complicity
Conspiracy, direct incitement, and attempts to commit, as well as complicity in the commission of, crimes against peace, crimes against humanity, and war crimes are punishable.

501. Responsibility for Acts of Subordinates
In some cases, military commanders may be responsible for war crimes committed by subordinate members of the armed forces, or other persons subject to their control. Thus, for instance, when troops commit massacres and atrocities against the civilian population of occupied territory or against prisoners of war, the responsibility may rest not only with the actual perpetrators but also with the commander. Such a responsibility arises directly when the acts in question have been committed in pursuance of an order of the commander concerned. The commander is also responsible if he has actual knowledge, or should have knowledge, through reports received by him or through other means, that troops or other persons subject to his control are about to commit or have committed a war crime and he fails to take the necessary and reasonable steps to insure compliance with the law of war or to punish violators thereof.

nope...your founding fathers were traitors who committed treason against their motherlands and formed the USA...you know this is treason :1orglaugh...it amuses me to see a grown man squirm around it like some reptile and pretend that there is even a miniscule chance that others will agree with you...

dude the 4th of july is traitor day...you celebrate it...remember your 4th of july "hail traitors" post? :1orglaugh

save face...admit it...fess up...you have huge double standards...what manning did is nowhere near as treacherous as what your cunt traitor reject ethnic cleaner slave trader thieves of founding fathers did...

your country was formed by cunt traitors, not that this reflects negatively upon YOU in any way, its just highly amusing to pick on your double standard...

there is nothing you could possibly say except "pigshit" or "you are ignorant" so it amuses me to poke the shit out of you for this...no ill will towards you personally I'm really not a hater, just like to wipe my ass with your phoney shit...

Oh no...the girly man has gotten his/her panties in a bunch. I wonder if you would mind repeating that to some of my retired military friends that live in your AO. I am sure I can arrange a meeting for you.

can't have the sheep speaking their minds

could threaten all that freedom.

Why don't you go and meet him in person. Have someone video tape it too. Im sure lots of us here would love to see the real you, not the bad ass internet ninja we got to know over the years. Oh, and bring Pathfinder with you. :thumbsup

At first, I couldn't decide whether to :1orglaugh or :disgust to this unbelievably ignorant statement...eventually, i settled on:

Why don't you see sig?

My panties don't bunch for murderous psychopaths, sorry to disappoint.

And you couldn't arrange a bouquet of flowers, let alone a "meeting in my AO," so I'm going to chalk that up to another Pathfinder day dream.

Thats what I thought, dipshit. All talk.

Got it...your wife has the dick and you are the receiver...which makes you the pussy in your perverted relationship. I am going to send an email of your post to my friends and maybe they will find the time and way to meet you.

lol sure they will bud

it's always cute when peeps go track down a meme instead of tracking down a fact, it takes the same amount of time:

Thomas Drake is one of four individuals in the history of the United States who has been charged specifically with “willful retention” of “national defense” information under 18 U.S.C. § 793(e). Most prosecutions are for “delivery” of classified information to a third party - something that Mr Drake was not charged with. This particular portion of the Espionage Act was created in 1950 during the Second Red Scare, as part of the McCarran Internal Security Act.

Anthony Russo and Daniel Ellsberg were the first to be prosecuted for the “retention” of what came to be known as the Pentagon Papers which Ellsberg gave to The New York Times, eventually resulting in another landmark Espionage Act case in 1971, New York Times Co. v. United States. The prosecution of Russo and Ellsberg was dismissed in 1972 because of government misconduct.

The second prosecution was of Samuel Loring Morison in 1985, a Navy analyst who sold satellite photographs to Jane's Defense Weekly; he was later pardoned by President Bill Clinton.

The third was the American Israel Public Affairs Committee case in 2005 (United States v. Franklin, Rosen, and Weissman).

you do realize the link you provided has zero info about any punishment those 3 recieved right? moreover, none of those men did prison time.

that's your little research.

The link was specific to the treatment of whistleblowers, not addressing your claims, which came AFTER my post.
