National Security Agency director Keith Alexander said on Sunday that whistleblower Edward Snowden betrayed the trust of Americans and defended the broad surveillance programs as necessary to prevent another terrorist attack.
As Snowden evaded an attempt on Sunday by Washington to have him arrested in Hong Kong, General Alexander told ABC's This Week: "This is an individual who is not acting, in my opinion, with noble intent ... What Snowden has revealed has caused irreversible and significant damage to our country and to our allies."
Alexander said the NSA surveillance programs Snowden had disclosed to the Guardian were tightly overseen and disputed statements from members of the Senate intelligence committee that they had not played a unique role in preventing terrorist attacks.

I think it attacks the Gov more than Obama,and I think Sal Alinsky is smiling.
They are working the collapse from the inside.
Actually it is Obama who has caused irreversible damage to the US..NOT Snowden, all Snowden did was tell us the TRUTH, something Obama and his cronies are incapable of doing..oh and I guess those Boston Bombers were using Sprint otherwise we would have known about their little plan
So, Snowden did “irreparable damage”, but we can “absorb” a nuclear strike.
Irreversable damage to thier plans for us
the only ones causing irreversible damage to US is this administration.
Our defense contractors hire all kinds of Chinese nationals. I doubt we have any secrets the chinese don’t already know.
Snowden blew it. After his leaks, he should have turned himself in with press in tow and said he was ready to face any punishment in an attempt save his country from tyranny.
The public uproar would have been massive and influential on the govt.
Now hes got no path forward thats any good, and hes in danger from not only the US govt, but every govt he approaches for succor.
Snowden is about to get an education on the George Wills Law:
America is an imperfect country surrounded by atrocious countries.
Agreed
Also irreparable damage to NSAs reputation
Exactly!
Not really. The ones who really control America and thus use frauds like little barry bastard boy will just let the noise subside then go right on with their plans for global governance and control. The We The People Constitutional Republic is a figment of memory, not a running reality now.
This guy Keith Alexander maybe a decent, honorable man. the problem is, he works for a regime that is dishonorable, and lawless. The majority in the country do not trust this Chi-Town thug government.
When first you set out to deceive,
don't be surprised that folks disbelieve.
These guys have themselves tied in knots. Ludicrous.
General Alexander told ABC’s This Week: “This is an individual who is not acting, in my opinion, with noble intent ...
Is the General talking about his boss?
I estimate his weight to be around 800 lbs.
>> Edward Snowden has caused irreversible damage to US
That makes two. Possible Beer Summit ahead?
Now that there is the truth. This is what it all about ... preventing dissent.
Well said.
