YOUTUBE (12 mins 2 secs) - Gareth Peirce Speaks on Bradley Manning: '
"Dispatches from the Dark Side"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8hZPXZOnUQ


This speech by Gareth Peirce was first screened on April 17th. 2011 as
the keynote address at a public meeting entitled "Free Bradley
Manning! End the War!


The event was held at "Giuseppe Conlon House" in London, a Catholic
Worker hospitality house for destitute refugees. Giuseppe Conlon of
the "Maguire 7" and his son Gerry Conlon of the "Guilford 4" became
clients of Gareth Peirce after they had been tortured and framed.
Giuseppe was to die in an English prison. Gerry was to serve 16 years,
both were victims of an historic miscarriage of justice

Today, Bradley Manning resides in a U.S. military prison, a victim of
another miscarriage of justice. Bradley, a 24 year old U.S. Army
intelligence analyst, faces decades in prison for allegedly sharing a
video of a U.S. helicopter attack that killed 11 civilians and wounded
two children in Baghdad, Iraq with the WikiLeaks website.
