    One motivation of Putin that nobody's mentioning is what a middle finger to the US it is to keep Snowden alive and well. And the fact that he can successfully keep Snowden safe is a flex of Russian power to stand up to the US. The reason the US is so adamant to get Snowden is not because he continues to pose any actual threat to the government. Punishing Snowden would be entirely symbolic, just like giving him asylum is entirely symbolic.

      Putin is hated by the same elites that turned America into a fiscal train wreck beyond repair, not because he has been bad for Russia... quite the opposite.
      He is hated, to the point of figures like Biden openly talking about affecting regime change in Russia to "rescue" the Russian population from him, precisely because he took the Russian nation off its knees... he brought economic and political stability to Russia.
      And he achieved this modest success in a sustainable manner... it wasn't financed by debt. Russia's national debt is extremely low compared to most Western nations.

Yes I'm talking about the infamous conspiracy, blood sucking satanic elites. These satanic worshiping fks takes children and wants us to think it's for pedo reasons (not only that), but it's mainly for occult status by drinking adrenochrome that temporarily keeps you young looking or sacrifices to LEGIT actual fucking entities (like the burned child you can see in the bohemian Grove footage).

    We all love (or some maybe hate) Patrick, and have all different opinions on him. On the other side it is safe to say we all share the same fact knowing about him, by saying Patrick is a smart wel educated man, succesful in life, by hard work, stil reading to educate himself instead of do nothing what is the same as fall down and going back.
    Knowing this, imagine the person Edward Snowden must be, even Patrick who is handle the story carrefull with questions and thoughts, normal for never seen before a person 29yrs old give-up his future for live in peace and anonymous to the society, a true patriot what needs to be praised instead of doubt about his intentions or calling him a traitor.
    Numbers of cash enough for his en next generations to live he refused, money talks, special real big amounts, should we?
    Glenn Greenwald explains how we must try to see the world through the eyes of Edward Snowden, so difficult for Patrick and most of us including me, because people do, ask or come to you because they want something. Specially this time there are not many people who act for the bennefit of others. Edward Snowden, with prison, torture in sight when crossing Russian borders, we must be thankful there are still hero's out there who give a f@ck!

    Apple has since removed the film Snowden from its library. Gone even though I purchased it. I have two phones. One hasn’t been connected to the net and it remains downloaded there. The other is connected to the net and the film is no longer available. Might hint at the extent of the reach of the interests involved. Odd…

    It's so human that we judge everyone by our own standards, expect them to think like we think and not allow for the possibility that they might be just different (from us and most people), let alone understand their view...
