Green and Die Linke (Left Party) politicians are asking that NSA surveillance whistleblower Edward Snowden be allowed into Germany for an ongoing investigation.

The Green and Die Linke politicians wrote a letter to the Federal Court of Justice, asking that Snowden be allowed to be questioned in Germany for an ongoing inquiry into NSA surveillance.

I thought it was Sweden that wanted him to be sent for facing rape charges. Either way, it’s kinda strange to have such talk become a hot topic again, after years of nothing changing at all.

That’s Assange, and they’re actually on the process of dropping the charges.

If I were Snowden I wouldn’t set foot in the Merkel run, socialist ally of Soros and Obama country. He’ll catch a bullet in the head for the truth he’s revealed about the corruption and intentions of the Obama administration, the UN and NWO eliteists.

They’ve actually gone to Sweden to attempt to interview him. He’s given them bits and pieces of info....but holding back to entice them into a full invitation to come. They keep thinking they will get this giant treasure chest of info, and this will help to trigger kicking the US military out of Germany.

I wonder if there’s a link between Snowden and Wikileaks.

Snowden is holed up in Moscow. From the article:Sweden is not mentioned in the article. Assange is the one who is suspected in Sweden, not Snowden.

< “A testimony in Moscow or by video still would entail significant problems for security and the protection of information about the relevant concerns.”

In other words they know Putin will protect him in Moscow so they want to bring him to Germany where he's unprotected so they use whatever tactic it takes, including torture, to see what all he's divulged or knows. After he gives them what they want you'll never see or hear about him again.

IMHO, Snowden knows if he leaves Moscow his future is very uncertain. He’ll stay there.
