PFC Bradley Manning, alleged leaker of 260,000 classified US Military documents

FBI whistle-blower and one of Time Magazine’s People of the Year, Coleen Rowley, speaks out about the attacks on Wikileaks and compares their importance to the Pentagon Papers; also, activists in the San Francisco Bay Area reach out to dock workers in an attempt to prevent the unloading of Israeli cargo, in support of the divestment movement against Apartheid Israel; and Food Not Bombs activists face arrest for passing out food to hungry people; and we’ll have a report from the poor people’s march from New Orleans to Detroit.
