Ja, and the next questions: if they were trying to keep that under wraps,
why was it on a system that could be easily compromised with a disk burner?
What happened to the people who posted it to that system?  If that video was
classified, why isn't it properly marked?  

Note to Kelly: if the video was on an unsecured network, Manning didn't
release it.  He only forwarded it to WikiLeaks, who forwarded it to the
world.  If it isn't specifically marked as classified, it isn't classified.
If it is specifically marked classified, I don't understand how the markings
were removed and how it got onto an unsecured system and why whoever put it
there isn't in the brig too.

Note to self: there are so many unexplainables here, I need to stop posting
on the subject until I hear something that sounds understandable.
