| 5 | - | To expose and project the war crimes that Bradley Manning bravely exposed and build a powerful outpouring here and around the world in support of his bravery, creating a political situation where the powers that be must drop the charges on Bradley Manning and must end their war crimes now. World Can't Wait published a full page ad to Close Guantanamo Now in The New York Times last Thursday with the pictures of the men still at Guantanamo who have been cleared for release. Without Bradley Manning, we would not have these pictures or know the names of 55 of the 86 people still in Guantanamo who have been cleared for release. Two main goals for this twitterstorm. |
