After sentencing, Manning declared a desire      to live as a woman, having been diagnosed with gender      dysphoria by two military mental health experts.    <\/p>\n<p>      The decision to uphold the findings of Manning's 2013 court      martial will automatically send the case to the Army Court of      Criminal Appeals.    <\/p>\n<p>      Manning was working as an intelligence analyst in Baghdad in      2010 when he gave the pro-transparency site WikiLeaks 700,000      documents, videos, diplomatic cables and battlefield      accounts.    <\/p>\n<p>      The trove included a 2007 video of a U.S. Apache helicopter      firing at suspected insurgents in Iraq, killing a dozen      people, including two journalists.    <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Read the rest here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.voanews.com\/content\/mannings-conviction-upheld-in-wikileaks-case\/1893413.html\/RS=^ADAHYx3gTgnJeYYqqCNUxv8pBHdwM4-\" title=\"Manning's Conviction Upheld in WikiLeaks Case\">Manning's Conviction Upheld in WikiLeaks Case<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> A U.S. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[48],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15965","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bradley-manning"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15965"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15965"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15965\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15965"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15965"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15965"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
