Is a man who chooses not to walk into a pointed knife a coward?

  Reality winner is only serving 5 years and she showed good faith. Ellsberg won in court and served 0 years. If Snowden weren't a coward he could be there in person right now.

    "With that being said, leakers are traitors and cowards, and we will find out who they are!" - POTUS Obviously this doesn't apply directly to Snowden. I would be worried about a fair trial in this type of political climate as well. I mean, it's not the US has ever inappropriately applied the judiciary to falsely imprison a man before!

      The act of fleeing made it harder for himself. Had he not fled overseas and really did attempt to follow proper whisleblower procedure he would most likely be a free man today.

    No...the US wants him dead. There is no chance in hell he gets a fair trial. The instant he would step into the US he would be arrested and sentenced for life. Very naive to think the government will let this one go

    Ellsberg said Snowden was right to flee.[1] [1] https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/daniel-ellsberg-nsa-leaker-snowden-made-the-right-call/2013/07/07/0b46d96c-e5b7-11e2-aef3-339619eab080_story.html https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/daniel-ellsberg-nsa-...
