One
week ago I left Hong Kong after it became clear that my freedom and
safety were under threat for revealing the truth. My continued liberty
has been owed to the efforts of friends new and old, family, and others
who I have never met and probably never will. I trusted them with my
life and they returned that trust with a faith in me for which I will
always be thankful.
On Thursday,
President Obama declared before the world that he would not permit any
diplomatic "wheeling and dealing" over my case. Yet now it is being
reported that after promising not to do so, the President ordered his
Vice President to pressure the leaders of nations from which I have
requested protection to deny my asylum petitions.
This
kind of deception from a world leader is not justice, and neither is
the extralegal penalty of exile. These are the old, bad tools of
political aggression. Their purpose is to frighten, not me, but those
who would come after me.
For
decades the United States of America has been one of the strongest
defenders of the human right to seek asylum. Sadly, this right, laid out
and voted for by the U.S. in Article 14 of the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights, is now being rejected by the current government of my
country. The Obama administration has now adopted the strategy of using
citizenship as a weapon. Although I am convicted of nothing, it has
unilaterally revoked my passport, leaving me a stateless person. Without
any judicial order, the administration now seeks to stop me exercising a
basic right. A right that belongs to everybody. The right to seek
asylum.
In
the end the Obama administration is not afraid of whistleblowers like
me, Bradley Manning or Thomas Drake. We are stateless, imprisoned, or
powerless. No, the Obama administration is afraid of you. It is afraid
of an informed, angry public demanding the constitutional government it
was promised — and it should be.
I am unbowed in my convictions and impressed at the efforts taken by so many.
Edward Joseph Snowden
Monday 1st July 2013
The man is a hero and deserves all the support we can muster and all our prayers.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, Sir. Our government makes him look lily white in comparison.
DeleteDear Lord our God in Heaven, please bless Edward Snowden, watch over him and encircle him with your divine Angels and protect and deliver him to safety from the dark Luciferian forces that seek to destroy him. Amen.
ReplyDeleteprotect and deliver him to safety from the dark Luciferian forces that seek to destroy him.
DeleteWith Hussein at the forefront.
Dear Lord, please add my prayers to those of "Anonymous," above me.
DeleteMany have gone up, I am sure.
DeleteLord, you know the traitors to the Republic and to Nature's God have multiplied. They spread their mockery far and wide, all over this world.
ReplyDeleteBut Oh Lord, be not far from us. Let them fall into the pit which they have dug. Let their evil be turned on their heads. Shatter their data mining centers where they seek to mock You by creating a parody of Thine omnipresence and omniscience with a mighty quake or lightning bolt. Frustrate their communications. Let the bullets they amassed to kill your Saints be turned on them. Let those whom they thought would blindly obey their godless, heinous orders turn their arms upon the Luciferians in this government.
Turn the traitors to this land and to your Holy Laws on each other. Let them devour each other like jackals, like starved wolves. Let them fall as all of thine enemies have fallen into Sheol, into the bottomless pit if they do not repent and seek you, O Lord of Hosts.
Vengeance is thine, you shall repay, in this life or in the next. Amen.
The U.S. Govt has become Leviathan. God protect us all.

A tyrannical administration comparable to Lincoln's.
DeleteI never stop laughing when I think of all those broken hearted Obama fanatics, crouched foetal in the corner of their bath-tub with a razor in hand mumbling "he said it would be different this time..."
ReplyDelete"he said it would be different this time..."
DeleteJust as the Collectivists do........why we'll only have to kill 50 million this time and it'll all work out.........
I am officially declaring "100 heads" on behalf of Edward Joseph Snowden.

May God's blessing flow into Mr. Snowden.
ReplyDeleteHe is a hero, for sure. Anybody who stands up against the HNIC, is a hero in my book. The issue is black and white, literally. The HNIC, hates whites and America. They know white folks will follow the law, 80% anyway, and the blacks will not, 80%. This is the 80/20 rule, and will be used to disarm white folks. Free men cannot be conquered, their souls must be broken. Evil captures your souls, by the 'sweet words on the tongue, that grow bitter in the belly'.
I'm sick of looking at the HNIC's face, and of all those self righteous assholes who didn't vote this time, causing him to be reelected. They have no rights to complain, since it is their fault. I don't know that the Mormon would have been much better, but at least we would have seen the evil in both parties, and awakened many more if the Mormon had turned against us like all those who have been against us since Kennedy, the last real President. He paid for turning on his masters, the money Oligarch's.
The HNIC now consolidates his power and stokes racism, not in the whites, but in the blacks, I feel it on the street, the hate, the looks. For what purpose, we have only an inkling of the spirit. This man is a prophecy, an Islamic prophecy, the "tall dark man of the west, he is with us", as it says in their Hadith. They are death worshipers, and the pale green horse rider mounts, with aid and comfort from our enemy, a False Prophet of collectivism and Islam, together?
Snowden saw the Beast, and he warned us.
Become God's hands of Justice, and in the words of John Wayne;
"send 'em to hell".

DeleteMade my way here from BIN. Nice blog. Anyway, I doubt that VP needed any order. It is my understanding that Snowden sought that job to get some dirt; he sought to steal information. Once Snowden stepped foot on foreign soil and told USA operations to another country, I no longer saw him as a whistleblower. Hate can be blinding.
ReplyDeleteThroughout all my years, I have never seen so much hate for fellow Americans as I have seen this last decade. No more live and let live, but, rather, you're either with us or you're against us. But this is a Republic.

Romney said corporations are people, my friend. He should have referenced the United States of America, Inc., a corporation owned by the Crown of England under control of the Pope. And that IRS scandal was mute to the fact that more than half of the monies collected by the IRS are sent to that Crown of England. In other words, we are still a British colony. Google, I did.

I am a Protestant, and Jesus' commandment is love thy neighbor as thyself with no exceptions. I think every Christian should be aware of The Islamic Connection to Rome.

I don't blame one man. I blame Congress. Thanks for allowing my voice.
Thanks. The Republic died in 1865 and has steadily gone downhill since then.
