----------------------------------------------------------



The group Psychologists for Social Responsibility has written a letter
to U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates protesting the military's
treatment of Bradley Manning, the U.S. Army private accused of leaking
classified documents to the online whisteblowing website Wiki Leaks.
Manning has been held in solitary confinement at the U.S. Marine Corps
brig at Quantico, Virginia, since July. The group accused the military
of holding Manning in needlessly brutal conditions. [See related
