“I think Snowden is traitorous because he gave this to other countries that are enemies of the US.”
He revealed it publicly, so other countries found out as a consequence. There is no way to blow the whistle on this level of government misdoings without such an unfortunate side effect. However, that is not Snowden’s fault; it is the government’s fault for letting things get to the point where there was no alternative but to compromise our own security in order to inform the public.
“Traitor means selling out to an enemy.”
trai·tor
noun: traitor; plural noun: traitors
1.
a person who betrays a friend, country, principle, etc.
The word is entirely apt to apply to bureaucrats who betray the country and the Constitution, even if they do it for their own misguided principles or self-aggrandizement, rather than for a foreign power.
The article for this thread says 1% has been revealed publicly, so you are wrong about that.
What are you saying Snowden revealed that hasn’t been known for years?
Not a trick question on my part, I would like to hear what you have to say.
