re: #8 piratedan
believe that comes under the heading of “aiding and abetting”. The Libertarian credo, I/Me/Myself up and above any and all other entities. So Snowden doesn’t see himself as an American, which is fine, but as a citizen of the world and trying to make this a better place. Shame that he didn’t take the same chutzpah to many of the various other problems of the world instead.
If he sees himself as a citizen of the world type then frankly, he shouldn’t be working for an agency like the NSA. Really I’ve got no problem with people who object to what the CIA/NSA etc do but if you don’t like it, I’d humbly suggest working somewhere else.
