hateful eager
love the leak we're feeding the wrong debate this is the moneyline
Dennis Campbell Fox News in the ride in valuing the Edward snowden is a traitor
drum slowly
for more than a month the recent announcement by russian Prime Minister
Putin to grab fugitive NSA offered
Edward snowden asylum for one year set off howls of outrage from the US and
threatened to harm US-russia relations
senator Chuck Schumer took to the loss to proclaim the russian leader was quote
poking a stick in the eye view SAT close quote with his actions
we know if you can is not a usafe any group in the KGB during the cold war we
were mortal enemies
and he remains angry the US did nothing to help russia financially in the
nineteen eighties
when the Soviet Union fell to get back on its feet
food intense use russia spoiling me love with ralph is a
clergy whenever he can to get whatever he wants
that date of thing whether them from really work for him
any chance you can revel the USA's cage he will
so it makes the real question was a traitor what is the
act look like know I know it certainly confused
any attempt to pick the Manning was snowed in situations
with the puritanical right versus wrong straight down the middle black or white
blush
Justin what is the situation maybe if the pundits all took a step back up
lights shades of grey
nuance then might we get to the right questions and get them on the table
the recently concluded Bradley Manning trial showed remarkably
some might say astoundingly judicial
restrict the military judge actually follow the law
verses internal opinion and found the young army private guilty of sharing
classified documents WikiLeaks
but he fell short of convicting him aiding the enemy
a potential death penalty charge Bradley Manning was tortured western military
prison yet shown signs to
out of conscience in his objections and actions
the US military simply wanted to and him
his evidence was damaging in the real crime was one of the embarrassment
and 10 will speak service how the videos and documents released
showed the US potentially committing war crimes against a group over iraqi met
shooting them down like in a video game laughing their way through the attack
for the documents embarrassed US diplomats for stunning level a few Bruce
and hypocrisy West also breaking local laws
no Snowden's time release information continues to baffle US authorities
because
everything shows he had a conscience as well
almost weekly a new revelation appears to vindicate him and prove his point
yet it goes under-reported no one is talking about the laws broken by the USA
while spying on
it was spying on everybody all of the time the real intelligence breach came
to a head when this weekend
german kid Germany cancelled anti-terrorism shari
in for free with other angry that the US was busily spine and German citizens
yet know the US less potential leaders and candidates from Hillary Clinton to
listen warrant
but talking about the real story beyond snowed in
the fugitive the wall I agree should come home and face trial
understand why he did not after watching the meningococcal
man in snowden indeed broke the law
so did daniel ellsberg releasing the pentagon papers
ellsberg was later found not guilty Manning and Snowden will spend the rest
of their lives looking over their shoulders for drones
the government desperately wants to set an example with these two and send a
message
but what happens to freedom of speech and democracy
when people move conscience take a stand and blow the whistle
against government law-breaking where is the due process
what happens when laws are constantly we constructed in such a way to prevent
releases any data without someone then play King
the law if the government is indeed breaking the law
how one where they held accountable for their actions
no blame you and Jen X-ers in their consciences a cheap trick
that place to the conservative base and avoids accountability
Manning and still not traders they're also got heroes because heroes come back
and face the music
they although the vehicles for this serious discussion to take place
the Obama administration has been vigilantly pursuing in fighting the
Curzon all kinds
in outside of government and the working press
but without a free press hawking any citizen hold the government to account
and with the press controlled by a handful of corporate interests
complicity reporters you corporate talking points
and paper over review issues with speed
now how does this serve humanity if corporations can do as they please
when they please with visited how can anyone stand up an objective big brother
is constantly watching listening
that's the debate we should be having Manning in snowden other conduits to the
citizenry taking back control of the government
unless and until those handling this data feel safe to show when their
government is willfully breaking the law
you don't have anything resembling a democracy
so hateful leaker love the leak in
