Can anyone smell the irony of this piece, as evidenced starting in paragraph 2? Also, what has made Snowden more of an authority on national security in less than 2 yrs vs decades of experienced govt employees?

“Giving evidence via a videolink from Moscow, Snowden said the National Security Agency - for which he worked as a contractor - had deliberately snooped on bodies like Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch.”

Snowden says NSA spied on @hrw & @amnesty - if true shows again why US needs to reform surveillance policy! http://t.co/lJ0sUz0tfz
