Washington is urging Moscow to send Edward Snowden back to the United States instead of letting him fly to Ecuador for asylum.
"We expect the Russian government to look at all options available to expel Mr. Snowden back to the U.S. to face justice for the crimes with which he is charged," U.S. National Security Council spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden said early Monday.
FULL STORY
Snowden has the US govt more confused than Chaz Bono at a urinal.
I know banasy. Washington does not care about u or me as much as them.
I eat ranch dressing right from the bottle.
Down with the federal government. They are ruining this country.
Only acknowledge the state governments.
They have better chicks anyway.
BINGO!
We need bill clinton back.
US government has been hacking Chinese mobile operator networks to intercept millions of text messages, as well as the operator of region’s fibre optic cable network, South China Morning Post writes citing Edward Snowden. And the plot thickens
Snowden can run but he cant hide.
Traitor!
You are correct rupert. He had no right to do what he did.
I hope Equadore denies him asylum and the Federal Marshalls capture him.
Bad man.
Oh thats just crap! He had EVERY right to inform the american ppl that they were being decieved by the ppl that thpe american ppl appointed to REPRESENT them! By funding Al Queda and the Taliban with our tax dollars our government is admitting there is no longer a war on terror. Therefore, there is no reason to spy on americans using the excuse that they are looking for terrorists!!! Its just an excuse to cover up mis management of funds! And those funds are money that WE, the taxpayers have paid. So yes we have every right to know and God Bless Edward Snowden for having the backbone AND decency to inform us!!!
@chrissy. You are twisting the facts. Stop!
And what are the facts, Zandie?
Sovietization of US of A is what is in the balance and that is not what Americans would want. There is nothing 'noble' in spying on citizens which expands by the day. Had not this disclosure surfaced the extent would have been limitless.
@banasy. Facts are we DO NOT fund Al Queda nor Taliban. How can chrissy say such a thing?
We hunt them down.
As@chrissy contends
The fundamental causes of the angst against US are to be examined and tackled, prosecution of war on terror, invasion and occupation paradigm has failed giving rise to more violence and expanding the sphere & influence of those extremist elements who have benefited & are benefiting from our policies. That has to be admitted and corrected.
Spying on citizens and usurping civil liberties is far from where we should go.
The whole lopsided foreign policy & interventionist regime has to be reexamined for the sake of America and in the interest of Americans.
Thank you @ saywhat. There is a HUGE difference in spying on american citizens and spying on americans ENEMIES!
Which way do you all want it? Do you want no one spying on you? Or do you want protection from terrorist attacks?
Keep two things in mind:
There is no evidence (yet) that the NSA was monitoring PRIVATE conversations without warrants, only PUBLIC social media, and
That jihadis often use social media to relay messages.
You are in a dreamworld if you think you can have both.
UPDATE- He never made it aboard the Moscow – Havana flight. If the Russian Security Agency keeps him more than a couple of days, we may never see him again. He might be wishing by now that he just went home. The FBI would at least be respecting his rights during questioning.
Me too. Just love pizza with extra pepperoni.
