As I understood it, Snowden saw excessive (and illegal?) spying by the NSA on American citizens. He then spent time collecting information on these activities which he intended to leak. I find it interesting that somehow slides disclosing Australia's spying on Indonesia met his document collection criteria. The timing of the release of this particular part of his document collection is also highly suspect, as our newly elected government was working hard and well with Indonesian authorities to shutdown the people smugglers.
