spring wife's
a Michael how would the russians get snowed in files to keep hearing people
say that it's naive to think that the evil russians Chinese
we get snowed in files but nobody ever offer
ever offers any evidence of this from a security standpoint
would likely he would likely be much easier for foreign intelligence services
to get the documents from green while then from snowed in
remember snowden is a legitimate NSA security expert he might know a thing or
two about keeping his information secure
I find it I can rephrase it and say I wanna be is certain is greenwald
claims or snow to claims in the suit there's no way that that's been looked
at
I would just say it seems pretty obvious given the circumstances that he stuck
an airport lounge for a month and he's applying to place for asylum he doesn't
have many options
and so but we work when he saw the SS role
and here's here's the thing so i are you selling your claim is in the middle if
it is something so you're saying that
the that the russian government has certain leverage over him okay have
their 40 delivered okay
total leverage over him and so it is
even if he didn't want the Russian government to get that information
they could just grab the computers and say if you give us a computers were
gonna send back to America
friends they can do whatever they like right okay but but but I'm not talking
I'm talking trying to get a theory what the question is can the computers they
could see yeah they could pick a could
they could say just as simply as that
alright don't let us look at your files you're gone
I mean I it seems incredibly naive
and ludicrous to think that that's not very likely what would have happened but
I don't know like with the
this line like the evils Chinese or Russian sauna
I forget the evil much and I mean it I i think american
intelligence in the same position would do a similar thing and on
I mean this is right I'm but worry the flip side to that argument is those that
I am the same leverage that russia can use in that instance
is also probably the only leverage that that Snowden has
in other words it's hard to fault
snowden for not going to these countries because it the only countries that could
possibly
protect him from the united as a separate the two separate question
I said braque there I said I think it's ludicrous to assert that
there's no way that those files have been accessed you're gonna get into
separate question I love the only places to go
are these places that do have atrocious human rights records but they have now
are also
you're also assuming they have looked at he definitely has that information on
him
not sit idly FairPoint and in gaza
that's the one hand one on one hand light well right now that I myself have
said he does and they've also said that there's no way that's been tax hike I'll
not ridiculous it I can come up with
and equally compelling argument that snowden would say I have that stuff on
me
to protect him okay but then we're just going
you know let us also think I also think in other words in other words
it is not eat ET
you what you really should be saying is if he really does have those that
information on his person
then it's hard to believe that the russians have been accessed
that's exactly what happens Nana Nana you've been saying it's hardly the
russians have been accessed
if he okay a basing of what he in greenwald have said why do you agree law
than him
saying that he has the Evo but not 100 honestly
what why would one comment be any more or less credible
So You Think and left his computer is hard drive elsewhere and was traveling
without it I'll the russians have kept them there for a month
and are giving asylum for a year and not getting anything out of it other than
the potentials embarrassing us which
they don't seem that happy about incidently that's why when did put in
indirectly threatened him a pretty much said
you could possibly stay here if you stop leaking things
so I don't even think there's a legit there is from a russian perspective
there is uneven and
legitimate interest well transmit every
or maybe baby there's there's an interest
on couldn't be happier saying that we're not going to condone leaking information
just as we would not condone it here that's exactly who's
right but that doesn't necessarily mean that he has a problem what's going on
it doesn't mean I think doesn't Prosser Darcy certified tongue in cheek to like
of the stops hurting our American friends
know he's at it now because he's also sending a signal to is on domestic
constituency that this is not right type thing that we would possibly apocryphal
again it's like
sign attack on average noted it's just when
when you for small when you leak a broader set of things
it does raise another set of questions sorry that I LD
I another 10 I we moving in these other countries
remove another quest
