The Antiwar community should lend its support to her. There are many more people who are part of the Intelligence machine who have contemplated taking the risk of standing on matters of principle.

Someone who is better at organizing than I am might want to think of how this might be done. I would be willing to contribute at least day's wage towards her legal defence costs
