Can't believe he mailed it as B Manning from his actual address. Funny ;)
Yeah. It wasn't exactly his address. One digit off. But ...
Perhaps it was a test to see if either he or the recipient was under observation. If the NSA was on to him, and tracking stuff from his address, the package might have been intercepted, or the recipient questioned. Or similarly if the NSA was watching the recipient, and saw a package from B Manning.
But arguably, the NSA wouldn't be so dumb as to tip off the recipient. They'd just monitor. Maybe the FBI would, however. Hard to say.
Or maybe it was just a dark joke.
The FBI likes to drop tips to see if you run... Just sayin'.

I wouldn't know :) But still, he would have known that NSA was on to him. Maybe too late to run, though. But maybe pointing to a change in plans. Maybe take a slow boat to China, instead of flying. Human smugglers?
