HAGERSTOWN, Md. — A key figure in the government's investigation of thousands of leaked secret war records says the suspected culprit had help.
Adrian Lamo is the computer hacker who turned in Army intelligence analyst Bradley Manning. Lamo says someone told him that he helped Manning set up encryption software that Manning allegedly used to send classified information to the whistleblower website Wikileaks.
Lamo isn't naming the apparent accomplice. But he says the man is among a group of people in the Boston area who work with Wikileaks.

Lamo
LMAO
Hang him.
Just pray that A.G. Holder will not take over the case, then who knows what will happen?
Water board Lamo!
Eric The Red was probably in on assisting the leaker.
Is the man a certain Massachusetts antiwar Vietnam vet with a sloop currently moored in RI as a tax dodge?
The deeper you dig, the closer you will get to the White Palace and the traitors who work there. Maybe even traitors who live there.
I’m recommending this everywhere...
anyone who leaks should have all their private information leaked. Financial, medical, family, friends, employment location, favorite bars. Eye for an eye, Jack.
They can find these bass turds by Googling Manning and then ivestigating the people running all of those “Free Manning the American hero” websites that have sprung up.
I’m thinking that this group of hacker will now be out to get this ‘traitor’ Lamo now. This criminal hacker group has no morals, no sense of right or wrong. I hope Lamo has the friends and resources to fight them and bring them down!
“Eye for an eye, Jack.”
In that case a bullet in the head is due because people will die from these leaks.
It’s quite likely that there were several accomplices, some at very high level - how would some lowly PFC get ahold of nearly 100,000 documents and how does he transfer them all, without help to wikileaks?
I agree. This guy had to have some more accomplices. And I would not be surprised to hear some were muslim and/or muslim groups?

He certainly isn’t a geek or a nerd.

I was just wondering today if the UCMJ allowed for that.
Yes, it does, not only "today" but for all time.
I agree. Waterboarding will make him reveal the Boston accomplice. Someone, other than Holder, should make a deal with this guy. Talk & go free. Keep silent and Death penalty and you will appear before a military tribunal - not the DOJ.
I had long asserted that Manning had help....no frakin way this treasonous idiot could remove 80-91,000+ documents, etc. =.=
Something really, really, really bad (like getting arrested and dragged away) happen to the guys with the servers supporting the site and that Manning stuff'd disappear real quick.
They're probably already under surveillance.
Did I say "arrested"? People like Manning and Assange assume that only the fascists who run governments are concerned with this stuff. They are terribly wrong ~ particularly in countries like Sweden where, for example, well-known extreme far left Prime Minister Olof Palme managed to get himself assassinated on a major thoroughfare in the early evening after leaving a movie with his wife.
The then far left government rounded up the usual suspects ~ all petty criminals ~ and selected one to be the sacrificial goat to "make it all go away". He was convicted. Years later the courts found he was not guilty, so this case remains unsolved.
The false assumption the leftists in the Swedish government had made was that Sweden was so satisfactorily down the Socialist Road that NO ONE was unhappy anymore ~ that no one had an agenda that didn't include their 99% tax rates, pro-Soviet foreign policy, and nascent anti-semitism.
What a surprise to them, and then after many years and the arrival of a Conservative government here and there the Swedes still can't imagine crime arising out of OTHER ideological convictions, or OTHER national needs.
No doubt the Wikileaks guys walking around Stockholm imagine the same things the government of Palme did.
My prediction is simple ~ if these pukes can be convinced to continue using Stockholm as a base of operations they will all be killed ~ and probably sooner rather than later.
It's not like there aren't some interesting Afghans in Malmo!
Look around. There's an amazing amount of information available, including how the whole thing went down if I'm not mistaken. The total size of the documents isn't all that big, some 16 megs - a few seconds transfer on broadband. One of the taliban forums actually had them zero-day.
how much value are the lives of a few traitor scumbags
over the security of a entire military force engaged in a hot war? One man with pistol and silencer .
If we haven’t got the nerve to just settle this , contract it out to the Mossad .
If American citizens participated in this, then it looks like they committed treason. They need to be tried on that charge.
hmm. Avalanche effect. Okay. :)
No, water board Manning.
Lamo is the guy who told the government and us about the problem in the first place.
I agree. Maybe someone needs to leak all the personal info on the founder of Wikileaks.
Shoot him.
I don’t understand why he won’t be shot?
UK media is reporting that Manning is openly gay, fired up politically ie far-left nut. That’s why state media silence on Manning.
So Manning's not smart enough to commit apparent treason all on his own but has help with someone among a group of people who work with Wikileaks? I can't imagine how the guy didn't know what he was helping leak?
The USA is no longer revered, not even by its own people. This will continue to get worse until we get back to the hangings and the firing squads.
Nobody pays the price for anything they do anymore. That needs to stop.
Well, not by many of it's own, anyway. And they are loud and vocal and swaying others, the movement still seems in that direction.
Was Wikileaker Bradley Manning Betrayed By His Queer Identity?
Was Wikileaker Bradley Manning Betrayed By His Queer Identity?It’s been speculated that alleged Army leaker, PFC Bradley Manning, is transgendered. We’ve found evidence that strongly suggests Manning has some sort of LGBT identity, and that the man who snitched on him exploited this to win his trust.
Twenty-two year-old army intelligence specialist Bradley Manning was arrested May 26th for allegedly leaking the notorious Iraq Apache attack helicopter video and more than a quarter million classified State Department documents to secret-sharing website Wikileaks. He was turned in by his confidant, ex-hacker Adrian Lamo. Lamo then gave logs of his chats with Manning to Wired’s Kevin Poulsen, who broke the story of Manning’s arrest.
There are many unanswered questions about this story—the largest of which is: Why would Manning trust an ex-hacker he had never met enough to confess, almost immediately, via instant message, his terrible Wikileaks secret—something he knew could put him in prison for a long time? Lamo told Salon that Manning found him by doing a Twitter search for “Wikileaks,” and that he doesn’t know what motivated his confession. Yeah fucking right.
Wired suggested Manning sensed a “kindred-spirit in the ex-hacker” Lamo. But Manning and Lamo also apparently share something stronger than a fondness for breaking into computer systems: An LGBT identity. Lamo is an out bisexual, while an increasing number of clues suggest that Manning is, if not transgendered, deeply uncertain about his sexuality and/or gender. Interviews with Lamo’s acquaintances and a close reading of the chat logs suggest Lamo traded on this identity to exploit Manning at his most vulnerable, as questions about his sexuality were unbearably pressing on his personal and professional lives......

“The deeper you dig, the closer you will get to the White Palace and the traitors who work there. Maybe even traitors who live there.”
There was an anti-war activist that Obama appointed to a very high level ‘civilian’ position at the DOD right after he was elected. She was a muslim sympathizer and had no qualifications for the job. She had worked previously in the media and was an anti-war leftist and zealot. Does anyone remember her name?
Any search of a so-called ‘civilian’ accomplice should begin in this woman’s office imho. My mind is blank right now on her name. ????
Thanks. Nothing rang a bell other than Michelle Flourney, but she is not the one I was thinking about. Will keep looking. I remember the whole controversy, so it shouldn’t take too long to track back.
ROSA BROOKS! The leftist Los Angeles Times reporter named ‘Pentagon advisor’ to Obama.
That’s who I was thinking about.
Obama transition team co-chairwoman Michele Flournoy was floated for DOD policy undersecretary.
