I can\u2019t believe how awful Vogue<\/em> magazine is. \u00a0Would you believe they are featuring Chelsea Manning in their magazine? \u00a0Remember that Chelsea used to be \u201cBradley Manning\u201d and he is NO hero.<\/p>\n National Review<\/em><\/a> reminds us what he did:<\/p>\n He disclosed, in a gigantic document dump, more than a million pages of classified information, including information about American military operations, American diplomacy, and American allies. The Obama administration was forced to rush to safety foreign friends whom Manning had outed as helping Americans. He broke faith with every relevant provision of the Army\u2019s warrior ethos \u2014 he abandoned his mission, he actively aided the enemy, and he acted with stunning disregard for the lives of his comrades. He did so because, acting on his own authority, he decided he wanted to stimulate \u201cworldwide discussion, debate, and reforms.\u201d<\/p>\n To be clear, this wasn\u2019t whistleblowing. He didn\u2019t identify a specific wrong and expose it responsibly while taking care to minimize the harm of disclosure. He just disclosed documents without regard for their contents. He didn\u2019t know if anyone would die because of his actions. He didn\u2019t know to what extent vital missions or programs would be compromised. He just did what he wanted to do. There was no honor in his action. None.<\/p>\n Read more at: http:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/article\/450378\/chelsea-manning-traitor-not-transgender-hero<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Mark Hemmingway put it nicely:<\/p>\n Reminder: Manning is a traitor who gave massive amounts of info to same Russian intel front that hacked Hillary Clinton.
