Ed Snowden is an NSA creation. With such lax security this was bound to happen. The NSA honchos are idiots who only have themselves to blame. They should be up on treason charges for Russia and China getting our NSA secrets.
If it was so easy for Ed Snowden to acquire all this NSA intel then prolly others have been doing it for years. But keeping their mouths shut and getting paid off by Russia and China for the intel. How many foreign nationals (like born in China or Taiwan or Russia) are working at the NSA or for NSA contractors? There’s your answer. We don’t want to discriminate do we? Political correctness is deadly to a nation.
(sorry but Taiwanese can be turned to work for China)
Dennis, you are correct on who is responsible. The NSA is responsible. Heads should roll on this breach.
\Snowden on the other hand understands what was given and sold out his Nation. Hiding in Communist Russia or Marxist Brazil is not acceptable.
He is a traitor first and foremost.
