The real reason why the Americans are so hysterical in their persecution of Edward Snowden. Bradley Manning, Julian Assange and probably others.
It has nothing to do with leaking "state secrets" or putting the country's intelligence network at risk or compromising "sources". It is and always has been, about embarrassing the American government and the security organisations, by exposing their dubious and illegal intelligence gathering methods and the way in which they assume that they are above the laws of any country, including their own.
The arrogance of the American establishment is breath taking in their deeply held conviction that they have some automatic right to spy on anyone they choose and even to remove people from the streets of any country and consign them without charge or trial to an indefinite stay in Guantanamo. Just like Nixon once said, "I am the American President. I can bomb who the hell I like".
