Looks like Fidel Castro has been the latest to offer Snowden asylum. And we all know the relations between Mexico and Cuba...Snowden could take a plane from Cuba to Cancun or Monterrey in less than an hour.

From Cuba Snowden can take a plane to anywhere, except the US. The good news is he'll be exposing himself to arrest, or worse (better?).

Caribbean islands are very comfortable places, cheap rum, ganja, why leave?.

they are pretty high priced, though, and they have not offered him asylum...the guy knew when he took the job that he was supposed to keep secrets...if he didn't agree with the type of job he was to uphold he should have never taken it...

This treasonous individual should keep close in mind the demise of bin Ladin if he thinks he can hide.
Regardless of who does what, when or why, his actions were wrong, and he will answer to charges eventually. He'll spend the rest of his days sleeping with one eye open.
Why do you think that it's treasonous to expose abuses of the 1st and 4th amendment by a government contractor, Booz Allen Hamilton, which is owned by the Carlyle Group? The implications of private contractors having carte blanche to electronically eavesdrop on virtually anyone in the US has chilling implications on our political and financial system. The Carlyle Group is a virtual who's who of banking, security, defense contractors, and petroleum interests, and ex-government officials and foreign billionaires like the Saudi royal family. What assurances and safeguards do we have that information they gather won't be subverted for their own benefit to blackmail politicians or front run economic intel for their own gain? In my opinion Snowden has done us all a great service in shining a light on these practices.


Snowden is America's greatest hero so far in the 21st century. He should be added to Mt Rushmore, he should have a monument on the mall in wash dc. His birthday should be a national holiday. Reagan airport should be renamed snowden airport.

Of course, Mexico would deport snowden, Mexico does whatever USA wants.

When we take employment and take the oath to keep secrets, those secrets are not revealed at that time. It is an honorable man's position to keep God/humanity, country, the business - in that order - above him/herself. It is when the secret is against the first two when we have a great reason to not honor the oath. Of course, for many, they reverse the order and put self on top. They call it self-preservation and throw honor out the door.

Tovarich Snowden ?


Nyet ?

Yet !

I suppose it will boil down to WHOM Putin dislikes more.

He is said to dislike and hold Snowden in Contempt and Disgust.

On the other hand, his contempt for B.O. is also well-known and the opportunity to stick it to him (and the U.S.) is certainly attractive.

In ANY case, Snowjob is probably right when he says that the only place he might remain secure is inside Russia.

We wouldn't tap him there. He isn't important enough to re-ignite those old Bad Relations.

It IS for sure that his life will never again be what he imagined it.

GOOD.

I believe that the notion of "treason" only relates to providing such information to an enemy with whom the USA has formally declared war.....and the last formally declared war the USA was in was WW II.....the rest of the incursions fed by cannon fodder were undeclared wars....

I believe it says so constitutionally.....but I have been wrong before:coolup:
