1. K&R -- looking forward to this. I have so much respect for
Amy, and so much outrage on behalf of Bradley. Thanks!

2. PBS has a documentary out about his whole situation.
FRONTLINE or one of those...

Complicated fellow. Troubled, too. I thought they were pretty thorough in their piece.

4. Yes. Troubled by U.S. war crimes so he, allegedly, did something about it.
Meanwhile, most of the rest of us give the war criminals and their enablers a pass.

5. No, he was troubled before he did any leaking.
He was troubled in boot camp and before.

Watch the documentary. It's got depth and breadth vis a vis the subject matter.
