The US-China relationship is not an "enemy" relationship.

Sounds like the Jonathan Pollard argument.

You've been promoting the Chinese spy theory from the outset.

Real spies don't go public; no major intelligence agency would want a spy to go public or would likely deploy an operative that would be dumb enough to go public because the idea came to them. It's called blowing your cover, for Chinese and Russians, if done intentionally, could be very bad for the spy's health. Real spies just do their job and send information back through their handlers. China has thousands of spies in America in the government and private sector, and without a doubt they have known about NSA evesdropping for years.

You NEVER mention WILLIAM BINNEY. If the Chinese simply perused American newspapers they would have been "on to" the fact that NSA was steadily expanding its electronic surveillance over the years. There are a whole host of electronic spying programs that are PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE that the US government has operated for decades.

The only possibility for Snowden being a foreign agent is if a foreign country sponsored his operation - with the intent that he go public - so American patriots would get upset enough and cause enough of a domestic political uproar that the NSA foreign spying operation would be shut down.

It is, however, highly doubtful that intelligence services of foreign nations are THAT dumb. Anyone smart enough to conceive of such an operation would realize that American patriots have no issue with American intelligence services eavesdropping on FOREIGN nations. After all, that's what intelligence services... are... well... supposed to do.
