He didn't have to escape to Russia with a bunch of laptops filled with classified documents,
Snowden says gave everything he had to the journalists he met with in HK, and destroyed all copies in his possession before attempting to transit through Moscow.
If your belief is that he did otherwise -- you'll have to explain how you "know" this to be the case.
- regnull 2y agoI suppose it’s my belief that he gave everything he got to FSB vs your belief that he’s telling the truth and he didn’t. I base my belief on the first hand knowledge of how Russia works, and the fact that it held all the cards and Snowden held none once he stepped on Russia’s soil - and probably before.
- aguaviva 2y agoOkay, speculation then. BTW I never said that I believed he was telling the truth. But that's very different from pretending to simply "know" that he wasn't.
