ALAN GROSS, BRADLEY MANNING, WIKILEAKS AND WHITE HOUSE HYPOCRISY 4FEB11

I would like the White House to explain the difference between the detention for 14 months and now the charging of Alan Gross in Cuba for "helping increase the free flow of information to, from and among the Cuban people" and the detention for 8 months with charges yet to be filed against Bradley Manning for allegedly doing the same thing. The Obama administration also has to explain their campaign against Wikileaks for their release of the Collateral Murder video, the Afghan War Diaries, the Iraq war documents and the release of the diplomatic cables, all done to increase the free flow of information to, from and among the American people and the people of the world. This hypocrisy can not stand, and the Cuban government, which I do not support, would be right to challenge the U.S. government on the hypocrisy of their statement. Click the link to contact the White House and express your support and concern for Bradley Manning and demand his release.

Statement by the Press Secretary on the Charging of Alan Gross

Alan Gross has been unjustly detained and deprived of his liberty and freedom for the last 14 months. Instead of releasing Mr. Gross so he can come home to his wife and family, today's decision by Cuban authorities compounds the injustice suffered by a man helping to increase the free flow of information, to, from, and among the Cuban people.
We remain deeply concerned for Mr. Gross' well being and that of his family and reiterate our call for his immediate release
