Former CIA Agent Explains Why Edward Snowden Is A Wanted Man In The United States 

True.

Suicided

He’s a traitor…. The road to perdition is paved with good intentions

​@@dougfornili5969 A traitor to whom? The people or the government? The gov. lied about Iraq and we killed 1.2 million people directly and hundreds of thousands of people indirectly. Is Bush jr a traitor? Obama armed and trained what later became known as ISIS. They've killed many US citizens. Is Obama a traitor? John McCain armed and financed Neo-nazis in the Ukraine, who then helped him overtrow the democratically elected gov. of Ukraine. Provoking a war that will cost many, many lives. Is he a traitor?

He deserved to be 😂

Your mum said the same about me.

@@ab-js2gwshush Indian servant of Israel

Just because the CIA criticises someone? Surely there's more to it.

@@Olyfrunthe CIA blatantly lied under oath to congress and said they weren’t using his code/program he developed for them to spy on the entire world… lol what are you not understanding. The CIA and NSA are trying to cover their tracks but they can’t since it’s public their letting him live for now. When he dies it’ll be an “act of god” but the whole world will know the US government will have some kind of involvement.

​@ab-js2gw 😂😂

Then move to Russia and give him a hug.

If you were the president we would be fuck3d be cause he is a traitor and I went to boot camp with him. He threatened to kill himself if they didnt let him out so I had to stay on suicide watch all the fucking time. He leaked millions of important classified documents/files to Russia which is why he was granted citizenship. He jumped and broke both of his legs so that they would release him from basic training.

​@@ab-js2gw People like you is what's wrong with this world.

@Tim B 😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣

@Tim B keep flat earthing 👌🏼

Literally everything he said here is a fact. What he said is the exact reason the government villainizes him. He didn’t villainize him, he told your illogical ass why he gets villainized by some people. Do try using that little brain of yours for two seconds before the next time you want to type out nonsense talking points. It makes you look bad

Exactly. That’s all this guy is.

But it is true, the news always said that metadata collection wasnt the only thing he took.

Sleeper Agents

Edward Snowden said he took A, this guy right here telling us he took B, C, D all the way to Z. I'm with Snowden on this one until somebody has evidence he took more than A

Exactly the enemy is within our own country since the beginning of Columbus arrival but most people don’t wanna hear the truth to it because the truth hurts how corrupt our system is in this modern age

Yes. He is a hero. Not a damn lemming, like to many people are.

@@daveken9936 when you said lemming I kind of thought of joe Biden 😂

@@JoseHernandez-th2ff trump as well. Both sides are disgusting.

@@daveken9936 I never said they we’re both perfect but it seems that the 21 year old who was arrested for obtaining information on Joe Biden would say more about him than Trump

It's s gang. Nobody ever retires

Exactlyyy.

It’s like getting involved with drugs. Once your in your in for good.

Hahaha nail on the head

It’s almost like they actually know what they’re talking about unlike internet conspiracy theorists.

That was Bradley Manning (i believe), Snowden whisltleblew on unlawful surveillance of citizens. Bradley is now known as Chelsea and was pardoned. Go figure eh

That was Julien Assange who was just moved from Britain to the US where he'll prolly rot in jail or get offed. Darn shame. Edward Snowden exposed NSA surveillance and such.

That was Julian Assange who was taken after being holed up for 4 years from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London & is now held in a high security prison awaiting extradition to the US.

@@sarahrose7914 Yea, an extradition he will no doubt be lucky to survive if he doesn’t “commit suicide” in his cell once moved to the US

@@sarahrose7914 It's funny how the sexual assault accusation conveniently comes shortly after he exposed that cover-up...one of the few crimes that doesn't require much evidence beyond a convincing testimony from a victim. He was on the run from the US government at the time of the alleged incident...I'm pretty sure he had more pressing things on his mind than getting laid.

Oh yeah? What about all the dirty secrets that go on between even worse Intelligence agencies? FSB, GRU, MI6? Stop mouth breathing.

I also Thank him for his bravery , BS government dont want show real hero , they wanna portrait them as an scums and traitors....even Muhammad Ali also they wanna portrait him as an coward, because he didnt wanna put his head for unnecesary killing , people in jungle

How?

What so heroic did he do?

Really wrong

golden comment, couldn't put it better in text

the hipster thing, I can't man xD so true, it's revolting

But was he lying. Cause the simple fact of that is concerning. But we don’t know. So I’d doubt both of them and only appreciate what they offer. Snowden or this ex cia dude

godzilla its a shame really, to drive a person's mind out of line for no good reason @@aluardghirmai5010

hahah true. But knowing how people can be stupid, it's saddening how his long hair-relatable hipster cover is sure to hypnotize many. I've watched about 3 podcasts that have him in. And clearly what he spouts are poisons laced with aloooot of honey. just listen to podcasts with him in, then do a weeks long deeeep dive on a topic he talks about. I'm talking about every resource you can find. Then, you'll see his superior ability to really twist facts that somehow flip protagonists into villains and vice versa. It's very subtle and hard to notice. Clearly not retired.

Once in the CIA, always in the CIA. He should have been called on this propaganda BS in realtime. Snowdon handed over all the documents to Greenwald in Hong Kong.

He doesn’t know anything that the US government hasn’t told him. He’s a puppet.

Exactly my thought. The notion he puts forward that Snowden used the secrets in his possession to “buy his next plane ticket” is laughable. Snowden fled Hong Kong because he had no other option, and was frozen in place in Moscow by the state department after cancelling his passport.

He could be lying about that

CIA and lying in the same sentence go together like peas and carrots.

Except he stole the source code, he didn’t just show Americans what is happening. He made himself more than a body…

@@db876ff ……he had to. I would’ve done the same thing. I love the USA. I do not love the dishonest and malevolent of Homeland Security, which is being against us, when it was intended for al-Qaeda and the like. Thank you Obama

@@Wanamaker1946 no one has to do anything, but he did. He made it harder for the next guy to do the same. And he helping other countries build the same system

@@db876ffGood

He's a traitor and he'll be executed for his crimes.

Snowdon will be hanging boy 😂

Me too.

I hope he'll return one day to run as president of this leaderless country. Presidents can have dual citizenship, can't they?

A "treasure" helping our enemy against us. That's a Traitor to me.

​@maryhalverson5713 if he comes back, I hope he goes straight to a high security prison.

Thank you!

I don't know how reassuring that is to me personally. Collectively, people these days could probably barely tie a fucking shoe with each other's help lmfao.

That in itself… propaganda

What’s “You Tube Vance? I’d like to see the dislike count on every video!

Thank God ❤❤love snowden

This dude is a cia propagandist.

@@TheHandsomeOne Very good point.

@@SJ-co6nk watch the latest video in the channel 'the hated one' . He dived deep on this guy.

@@TheHandsomeOne holy moly what a weirdo. He says "if you don't want to be spied on in the US by the cia, then leave" uh...... The US is literally the only country that you are constitutionally mandated not to spy on, this glowie is going to have to explain exactly which country you move to in order to not be spied on by the CIA.

Haha I see the dry sarcasm in your comment 🤣 The fact that the CIA & NSA are mad that he collected information he wasn't entitled to is just ironic 😅

He is simply parroting the party line thats some of the same stuff James Clapper and Michael Haden accused Snowden of. He first never got to Ecuador as they flagged his passport so he got stuck in Russia they caused that and that already a proven fact. Snowden himself maintains he gave all the data he had to the journalists and took nothing with him specifically so he could not be coerced into giving up classified intelligence to anyone. Accusing him of doing so is part of their effort to Frame him for a much larger violation of the Espianoge Act and to make him look like an actual spy instead of a whistle blower. If it was anyone else but the threw horseman of the apocalypse ( Haden, Clapper and Brennen) making this accusation I might actually but it but those three are the slimmeyest lowlifes in agency history. They make Allen Dulles Jim Sturgis and E Howard Hunt look like Boy Scouts.

Damn bro I don't know if I could have said this any better. No disrespect to Bustamante former CIA guy but he has no shred of evidence to backup his claims against Snowden. But if there's some truth to Snowden using US gov secrets for "insurance" purposes well who could blame him? If our government was honorable then 911wouldn't have happened, the Kennedy brothers wouldn't have been assassinated and there would have been no Vietnam war.

Who is objecting this

@@ProfAzimov Literally, the United States. Snowden ended up in Russia because the Russians protected him, while the US would very much either kill him or incarcerate him. The silly thing is the US made a huge stink about absolutely nothing. He revealed a lot, yes - but a lot of it should have been a given assumption anyway Guy is a hero. Regardless of our opinions, he did what he thought was morally right & had to start a whole new life because of it

He was holed up in an airport for months/years wasn't he?

We need them more than ever in Russia

They're the riskiest ones, the gray man.

He definitely was CIA, or even is one still. Lying about this is illegal. He would be in jail if he was lying

@@Milo19970 are you dizzy? Their whole job is to lie.

Yep, he looks like a surfer.

@@mechminded2207 Yeah to the public. The government knows that they are a spy

THIS. This dude has it engrained in his. I mean its good people are having him on so we can see more of the BS.

FORMER. THANK YOU.

Once a glowie always a glowie

You're not smart enough to become one 😂

His response seems more emotional than anything rooted in fact

Its a lie. I've followed the case since the beginning and at no point other than this man's allegation, that this is (or was) the case. Furthermore, his passport was revoked while in transit to S America via Russia hence he was forced there. The guys full of shit spin.

"Why you running?" Meme. Bish, you chasin'.

@@mechminded2207 lol

He didn't. Every thing sude just said was a lie. I am not going to judge whether or not Snowden is a traitor or hero but I do no that he never made it to Ecuador. He left his hotel in Hong Kong trying to fly to Ecuador to get the same Asylum deal that Asange got only he never made it to Ecuador because US State Dept flagged his passport so they were 100% responsible for him being stuck in Russia. As to him giving up stuff, he maintains that he gave up all his stolen date to the Jouralists from the Guardian so he had nothing on him to give anyone and he did that quite intentionally so that no foreign intelligence Agency could coerce him into giving stuff up because he had nothing to give. It's impossible to know the truth of that one way or the other. The Jouralists confirmed his story and the Russians say he has given them nothing but that is of course exactly what they would say even if he had. It's possible that the Agency is trying to set him up to look like a Spy instead of a Wistle Blower by bolstering their case with crimes he didn't actually committ.( Pretty unnecessary as they already have him for violations of The Espianoge Act reguardless of weather he actually gave anything to the Rissians or not. Just his unauthorized access and theft and removal of the classified intelligence alone he is looking at 30 years easy..They could be trying to go for a death penalty but they have only ever executed two people under that act, the Rosenbergs. He knew he was breaking the law when he did it and was willing to go to prison to get the information out..The only reason he has stayed in Russia is that he wants to be able to tell his side of the story and the Espianoge Act does not allow for that. It's you either did it or you didnt and it allows no mitigation what so ever. I do believe that even if what he did was heroic and patriotic he still should go to prison. Sometimes these things aren't mutually exclusive. I also believe however the Clinton's, Berennen and Clapper should be sharing a cell with him. Hillary comitted essentially the same crime and yet she wasn't even charged at all.

Classified means its Classified. You'd be surprised by how much tame sh#t that can still get you hemmed up. The government doesn't want anyone with prior clearance talking about anything.

Classified means it can't be mentioned in public!

He's pathetic. He's could be bffs with Kaepernick.

What so heroic did he do?

@@ab-js2gw willingness to give up everything to do what is right but it's clear you don't have a spine to do what is right nor know what is right.

​@@ab-js2gw Whistleblow the data collection from the NSA on the American people, along with international organizations

@@ProfAzimov if before Snowden you didn't realise that governments and agencies do mass surveillance operations you're an absolute idiot. I've got a bridge to sell if you're interested 😃

What so heroic did he do?

@@ab-js2gw 🏆He exposed the corruption of our government. Did you think that's okay? 🤷 ...for them to lie, break the law, and violate the Constitutional Rights of every American Citizen??? Snowden is a Patriot and a Hero! 🔥

@@peacenow2023 he didn't exposed anything. If you had any common sense you'd understand all of this corruption happening with all governments including russian where he's currently hiding.

A national hero? Yes, especially in Putin’s Russia comrade.

Everything he said was a lie. Edward Smowden compromised PRISM and Trailblazer that were part of the Presidents Surveillance Program they had nothing to do with the Patriot Act. Snowden did not move from place to place he went from Homg Kong to Russia thats it he was trying to go to Ecuador but was stopped in Russia because State Dept flagged his passport. So he didn't do any of those things. He was clear in his book and every interview that he left all his stolen data with the Jouralists and took nothing with him to give up. Russia and the Guardian both confirm that.

and now he's a traitor 👌🏼

@@ab-js2gw how?

He isn't "yapping" about anything that's not already open source public information. There is nothing he is talking about that you can't look up on CIAs website. They have a ton of open source data available on their sight including the CIA reading room digital library and CIA World Fact book. It was very helpful when I was in College you should check it out..What Snowden stole was portions of the CIA and NSAs methods for collecting information and it's Sources and Methods that are the real classified stuff. Analysts, Collectors, Case Officers and Operations Officers for the Agency talk to people including the public as part of their job. They are trained to do so and elicit information from you that you in most cases don't even realize that your giving up. So as a rule they are very skilled at talking a whole lot and saying nothing of value. This gut is actually quite good at that he peaks your intrest and sounds a bit provocative but is most of the time spewing BS( like with this video) or just not really saying anything of value. There are lots of guys from Intelligence Community and Special Ops on the interwebs and if you think they are somehow coming on cyberspace and spilling a bunch of secrets than I have some beach front property in Kazakhstan I'd like to sell you.

It is lies, Snowden went from Hong Kong to Russia and never left because the State Dept flagged his Passport. He never made it to Ecuador or anywhere else and he gave all his stolen data to the Guadian Jouralists and took nothing with him both Jouralists verified that and Russia has said over and over again they tried to get stuff from him but he didn't have anything. So pretty much everything dude said was 100% fiction. He didn't make it up though it's the exact same fiction put out by the the very guys Snowden ratted out( Michael Haden, James Clapoer and John Brennan or as I like to call them the Three Stooges)

I would not normally trust either the Guardian or Russia but in this case the Three Stooges have a vested intrest in branding Snowden a Spy and traitor because he exposed them lying to Congress not just to the American People. Clapper and Bennan both had testified they weren't spying on the American People and Snowden knowing they were lying them showed the world they were. I think you will find this guy worked for the Agency during that same time frame and I'm sure also has an ax to grind.

Look at what they have done to Julian Assange. They will bring him to us and kill him. Had Snowden didn't have those Intel's with him as bargaining power. He would have been killed before entering Russia. This is what patriotic Americans go through for protecting American citizens interests. They have to leave their country, their friends, their families, their lives.

Your privacy is being invaded by government agents on a daily basis under the guise of "counter terrorism", soon they will know everything about you and may start purging political dissidents such as communists. That is fascism. Do you want to live under hitler 2.0? Your choice

Shouldn't you be with the rest of your flock?
