I personally do not believe that the release of confidential Afghan records benefits our country. I also believe that it can potentially be harmful. However, one Congressman is calling for the whistleblower to receive the death penalty. A bit extreme?
Congressman Mike Rogers believes that this constitutes a capitol offense. What Private Bradley Manning did, in my humble opinion, was immoral and against the law (illegally obtaining classified information). However to condemn him to death seems a bit extreme. What do others think? Should he even be punished? If so, how?
