DESCRIPTION:Jeff Paterson, steering committee member of the Bradley Manning Support 
 Network, and his associate Michael Thurman, will give a report on Bradley 
 Manning, his situation and ongoing efforts to end his incarceration, which 
 has lasted almost 3 years. \n\nFebruary 20th marked Bradley's 1000th day of 
 imprisonment without trial. In contrast to his treatment by the Obama 
 administration and the military, Manning has been nominated for a Nobel 
 Peace Prize for courageously releasing video of "collateral" murder by a 
 helicopter crew and for sharing classified materials, including diplomatic 
 cables containing candid assessments of the operations in Afghanistan and 
 Iraq. Defense Secretary Robert Gates called the revelations "fairly modest" 
 yet Bradley Manning has been subjected to harsh treatment far beyond what 
 is allowed in military or civilian US legal codes. \n\nPaterson is project 
 director of Courage to Resist, the Oakland-based non-profit which supports 
 military whistleblowers and conscientious objectors. Thurman is a campaign 
 organizer with Courage to Resist as well as on staff with the Bradley 
 Manning Support Network. Courage to Resist and the Bradley Manning Support 
 Network co-host the Bradley Manning Legal Defense fund. The fb page for the 
 Support Network is Save Bradley Manning \n\nThe Update is part of the GI 
 Rights Network annual conference, hosted by the Santa Cruz GI Rights 
 Network group, a project of the Resource Center for Nonviolence. RCNV and 
 Santa Cruz WILPF are co-sponsors of the conference. Donations are 
 requested.
