That's how you would explain it to a kid? That you listen to the criminal organizations that say what this guy did was wrong? Seriously, is it just me or does that sound crazy to anyone else? Manning is only "wrong" because they say so. Imagine that, a criminal that is exposed as such labeling the person who outed them was wrong, that he's the one who needs to be locked up.
The US Military is not the Legion of Doom.
Manning isn't wrong because they, the military, say he is. He's wrong because what he did is a criminal act according to federal law. You cannot have members of the armed forces leaking confidential information, regardless of what it is. He has to be punished strictly to show that this behavior won't be tolerated. Military transparency cannot exist.
