Whistleblower Edward Snowden Asks Ecuador For Asylum
 |
| Edward Snowden |
The American administration is
embarrassed, frustrated and very angry in the wake of the revelations
by Edward Snowden, regarding two highly classified NSA surveillance
programs, and his subsequent avoidance of extradition from Hong Kong.
The reaction to these events over the
past few days, has been verging on the hysterical, with Senator
Dianne Feinstein, Secretary of State John KerryWhite
House spokesman Jay
Carney and others appearing
on our television screens and being quoted in the media, threatening
all sorts of dire consequences for any country through which Snowden
may have travelled on his way to political asylum.
The Americans seem
to have no idea where he is, where he was or even where he is going.
Consequently, they behave like spoilt brats in the school playground,
threatening everyone and stamping their feet because they are unable
to get their own way.
It
never ceases to amaze me that the Americans have this rather naive
view that they are somehow the centre of the universe and are
entitled to instruct the rest of the world on how to behave and what
to do. Events over recent days may have dented their over inflated
ego.
Incidentally,
if this post has upset the readers at GCHQ or NSA or any other
“security” organisations, I do not really give a toss.
