A Synopsis Of This Morning's News...
H/t to ChrisM my MP3Angel for supplying the audio files.
«o» PFC Bradley Manning got his arraignment day in court yesterday. Manning has been accused of turning hundreds of thousands of documents including the globally viewed "Collateral Murder" video over to WikiLeaks. He has 22 counts against him including 'aiding the enemy'.
Over the last two years of his incarceration he spent a year in solitary confinement at Quantico brig and was tortured in the manner they torture inmates at SHU ('Security Housing Unit') prisons throughout America.

At least two protesters were killed in Kabul on Friday and many more across the country were injured (Reuters).
The killing of two NATO service members by a man in an Afghan Army uniform on Thursday during protests in Afghanistan occurred as the U.S. military is urgently reviewing its security procedures in order to prevent such friendly fire attacks (NYT). Of the 45 incidents of violence against NATO troops by Afghan security forces or private contractors since 2007, 75% have taken place in the last two years, intensifying officials' concerns over this issue...
