The problem is that those that torture are following orders of their politicians. Whistleblowers expose the politicians as criminals.

I was being idealistic.  You hope that they would be reasonably honourable.

Well, they didn't choose to shoot him, though I would expect that some would be demanding that.

He would have got far less for shooting a couple of black kids.

It is mixed up country and what he did was more embarrassing than dangerous. The apache gunner was guilty of a war crime and still roams free, the man who exposed his crime gets 35 years. The exposure of what the US ambassadors was embarrassing but most of would agree with the comments about our leaders.

Obama will not pardon him. He has been more relentless on whistleblowers than any other president.
