It is highly specious to consider that the opinion of the US public matters at all to Snowden at this point. The American military-industrial religion can justify its heinous criminal acts against humanity all it likes - there are still, nevertheless, some of us out here who would rather not live in fear of American tyranny. Who would like to actually build companies to compete with American concerns, and defeat them in the marketplace before it becomes too late. What of this not-insignificant portion of the world who do not share the American privilege, yet nevertheless must labor under its hegemony? Do you think the subjects of American abuse care much if the American people deny their citizen, Edward Snowden, his due? Certainly, to a majority of people in the world, Edward Snowden - and people like him, selflessly working to deconstruct the heinous machine built by maniacs and death-worshippers - is a hero.
