Did anyone check the Venezuelan plane when it flew out of Moscow??
While they were chasing the "rabbit", the Bolivian plane, did the Venezuelan plane fly out of Moscow unchecked and unnoticed?
If so, it was a fairly clever plan.
Somebody planted the story that Snowden was going to fly out of Moscow on the Bolivian plane. The US ambassador in Austria passes the rumor on to our State Department, and new SoS John Kerry, that Snowden was going to be on the Bolivian plane.
The government of France and Spain, and perhaps others, are requested to not let the Bolivian plane through their airspace. The Bolivian plane sets down in Austria and "negotiates" for 13 hours that no one should be permitted aboard his plane. While all this was going on, the Venezuelan plane left Moscow and sitting in a window seat was none other than the fugitive spy, Edward Snowden...
It's a theory but that is all we have at this time.

And if the Russians planted the fake story about Snowden being on Morales's plane, then they likely have gleaned a lot of information into US Intelligence operations. Obama really stepped on his dick, and leaked intell to Russians. Will he arrest himself?
