It would be interesting to find out how much of Putin's recent inexplicable actions may have something to do with things he read in Snowden's release of information.
Snowden didn't give away any details of US strategy.
He exposed the collusion of the USG and tech companies to intercept calls and emails of any person anywhere in the world.
What's more interesting is that the USG used it for more than tracking down terrorists.
They are using that data for economic and political gain.
Snowden is an American hero, next to Bradly Manning, Bob Ross, and Mr. Rogers. He is right, the privacy of our nation is the biggest issues, from home invasions, to collecting miles and miles of data, from phone calls, messaging, and various services.
Snowden did no real harm. He just saw something that was wrong and shine some light on it. Back then we had the house of un-Americans, who would do all kinds of illegal things to anybody who spoke out about being pro communism. Snowden is basically showing us, that by letting these looney tunes, loose in the hearing rooms, we as a people, are vandalizing everything the United States represents.
However I do agree, spying on peoples computers, phone calls, and so forth are things that should be protected by the law, for everybody, no matter what they do or say on these devices. They are even taking away peoples electronic devices, when they come inside via aports. I mean if this was 1991, nobody would have any right to invade anybodies privacy in that manor. It is inhumane, and against the law.
What happen with 9/11 is that they had plastic, and nobody fought back, until it was too late. If people just said, hey, they have stupid retarded knives, we wouldn't have to deal with this mess.

You should see the documentary "Flag Wars". It makes me think, why did Charles Bronson, have to pass away. It would make a great film.
But he took the illegal way and it WILL bite him in the ass.
Why aren't you tired of being wrong? Why are you posting if you have no intention of actually learning anything?
I can't believe a person can be so intent on a false narrative as to make him or herself look so foolish.
Unless of course you are an Obama shill! If Snowden had had a means of coming out without being persecuted, I'm sure he would have. Obama made sure that contractors were exempt from protections. Why is this so hard for you to understand?

Yet he is charged with espionage, by an administration that should be charged with tyranny! The fool that started this thread has no clue. Proof there are monkeys with keyboards.

I agree somewhat. The fact is that Snowden went about doing what he did because he was forced to. If Obama had protected him I know full well he would have come out in the US press a different way. THAT is scary, because the US Press would have made him a footnote. We are at the mercy of evil men, both in politics and in the press.
How can we believe anything anymore?
Look at what they've done to our soldiers, letting them die to make quotas. IRS targeting, NSA spying on citizens, the Benghazi fiasco. Seriously, who has faith in our government anymore? If you do, you are an idiot!

We can't. We have high level government officials lying to Congress (Clapper) or taking the 5th (Lerner).
We have the MSM getting their stories vetted by the WH before they are printed (NY Times).

Like I said, clearly, we can trust nothing. I tried to prop you, but I couldn't.
That's because you are a sheep that doesn't mind being lied to and spied on by your own governement. BAAAAAAAA!!!!
