Ever see the movies about Spy Kids?
The CIA raised Snowden as a spy from childhood. When he was of age, the two agents who acted as his parents had completed the task and no longer needed to remain married.
Also, the movie The Recruit has the main character as a new agent whose father was also an agent. In this one it implies that there is something genetic that makes him a good agent.
So anything that can be done to discredit and take down the CIA in the public eye will cut the legs from under a whole bunch of Democrat candidates at once. They really are stupid.
Some see links between @snowden and Hillary.
Alice AND Wonderland.
If Hillary was really in bed with the ousted Saudi princes, could @snowden also be in with them?
When I try to imagine this, it doesn't make sense. I keep coming back to Israel and the UK as the handlers of @snowden.
China seems too easy, just like Russia where he clearly had no relationship at all. But when I look at the people who sheltered him in HK, a former UK protectorate, they look more likely to be UK agents than Chinese or even Israeli.
Not only that but current administration actions are squarely targeted at political corruption, not at vices.
So refreshing to see real wisdom here instead of the usual juvenile posturing from know-it-alls with green frogs.
I know from personal experience that MI6 uses this technique to infiltrate organizations. They come in first as a low level job like guard, janitor, whatever, and then get to know people, show their knowledge, help people with their work and then get offered a job bypassing normal hiring channels.
Not sure if CIA does the same.
But given that we now know NSA is seriously patriotic, it would make sense that CIA and MI6 might try to infiltrate.
It is a comicbook antihero symbol that has been adopted by several military groups, in particular some SEAL teams.
Likely a reminder that even if Obama claims he is a Kenyan or British citizen, that SEALs will exfile him from whatever part of the world he tries to hide.
Let's be clear on what happened in the UK.
Somebody killed two people using a technique that only an intelligence agency would think up. But nobody knows who did it.
Russia seems unlikely because they were happy to leave these people alone in the UK for many years. And it is hard to see how they could have been about to do something damaging to Russia since they had been away from the place for so long.
Now, if Russia was holding Russian citizens in jail and the USA was able to get them freed by trading Russian spies that were arrested in the USA, what does this tell you about who the two dead Russians were working for?
It tells me, that they were in Russia, working for a foreign intelligence agency.
So now that they are in the UK, are they retired? Or do they keep doing something connected with the spy trade? It is hard to see them working for Russia.
But maybe they worked for MI6, CIA, Mossad or Chinese intelligence. Or several of them. And this is risky work. Maybe they were about to double cross somebody, or sell some UK secrets or…??? MI6 could have killed them. Mossad/CIA/China could have killed them when they failed to deliver.
But to blame this on Russia is stretching so far that it is beyond believability.
They may have been killed simply to create an excuse to smear Russia which means that the CIA did it.
