Bradley Manning (WikiLeaks) Finally on Trial; Did Anyone Lose Their Job?

“A military prosecutor told a judge on Monday that Pfc. Bradley Manning was no ordinary leaker, as the court-martial opened for the former Army intelligence analyst who has confessed to being the source for vast archives of secret military and diplomatic documents made public by WikiLeaks.”

My opinion is that anyone in his low position could have only have done this if there are a number of people in higher positions who completely screwed up. So did this result in any of these people losing his job?

The second question is what exactly were the catastrophic consequences–that the U.S. Government told us would happen?

The third question is why does anyone even bother to think that he’s some kind of whistleblower?
