I've always had the feeling that something is 'off' about him and his motivation, my needle hovers somewhere in the middle between do good whistle blower and traitor, a bit more towards traitor.

Just as the government has gone too far so did he, he's done more than just let the American people know about the massive domestic surveillance going on which he says was his real and only goal, he's also compromised the effectiveness of the spying on groups and countries we need to keep an eye on - as they do to us, the Chinese especially.

I don't buy that his life is in danger, the worst thing that could happen from an American point of view is Snowdon coming up dead. Nobody would believe that it wasn't orchestrated by the US government. Surprised Putin the old KGB spook hasn't thought about that, good way of making America look evil.
