Hers is a generation that will inherit the debt of American war crimes, and it is an utter tragedy that things are going down like this.
It is a real modern travesty; to consider how extremely dire the situation is, the dead public silence vis a vis military war-crimes, versus what Chelsea is going through.
By what righteous metric can a society that allows such an injustice to happen be allowed to continue to keep its secrets?
Challenge the narrative and either you get justification for mass-murder, downright hostility from folks who cannot brook a challenge to the military hegemony, or outright ignorance and pleas of victim-hood.
So-called western moral authority is torn to shreds - but the interesting thing is, if the West is to step back from the precipice and face the truth, then Chelsea is going to be a part of that, too.
Her pardon is the only appropriate way forward, followed by proper justice for the real crimes against humanity that were committed by her colleagues, in the name of their families.
Chelsea's release, as well as Julian's, would most definitely be the only way for things to turn around, for the generation that will inherit these debts is not easily going to forgive these deeds.
The leaks will continue.
Especially since the very real, extraordinarily catastrophic war crimes have continued to happen, and there is still not an appropriate level of responsibility for the situation. There is ZERO Justice for the victims.
Just how long we are going to be distracted by puppets until we start jailing our very real war criminals? Assange and Manning being pardoned has to happen.
