Yes, I wonder if Snowden realized it? Or if this is part of his strategy, perhaps.
Who knows what Snowdens realized, ..I see him as the puppet of Assange so it really doesn’t make a difference in my assessment of him...either way he is a traiter... regardless of the immature and childish motives he’s given....his actions now have confirmed that he is.
Assange is one bad character if you look into his motives and thinking...unfortunately he’s an incrediably intelligent man who masks his intentions by manipulating his listeners...and he’s masterful at doing so....when in fact his desire is to interfer with leaders diplomacy, outcomes of wars and BE an actor on the World Stage.
He seeks the very same “Power” he accuses Government Leaders of.
Snowdens just one of his followers he’s managed to recruit and willingly so..they share many similar ideals.
