An interesting perspective of Ed Snowden from the far right.......

Jon Rappoport's writings can be found on a number of right wing pages. Typically he is so far to the right that Sarah Palin can not see him from her kitchen. In this article Jon looks at Snowden from a slightly different angle.
One might almost consider this article written objectively.

Simply another point of view.

Snowden breaks both legs in a training exercise. He’s discharged from the Army. Is that automatic? How about healing and then resuming Army service? Just asking.
If he was accepted in the Special Forces training program because he had special computer skills, then why discharge him simply because he broke both legs?

Thanks for saving me a lot of needless worry, Jon Rappoport.

I'm not all to very sure it's time to hide in the closet. Yet.
Might be a good time to look at all the stuff out there.
Consider or disregard as appropriate.

dates listed were June-September so less than 120 days. It would have taken at least that long for the legs to heal enough to repeat training. I would say the discharge was normal procedure.

....to suck out our brains and incorporate our species into the Borg.

But if Snowden was maneuvered, in his career, without his knowing it, to arrive at just this point, then we have a whole new story. We have a story about unknown forces who wanted this exposure to occur.

Who would these forces be? I could make lots of guesses. But they would just be guesses.


Sorry. Fail.

I have it from a source who wishes to remain anonymous that it is the Vogons.
Their working with the mice you know.
Mice are what they use for compute power.

Makes about as much sense as anything else coming from Jon Rappoport.

If this is one more thing that you can discard.
Good!

Theirs more of this to look at.

President Obama wanted it exposed so that Congress will be forced to shut it down.

I suspect you were being sarcastic in your post, but I wouldn't put it past President Obama to make a move like this. It's timing (long before the mid-terms) supports the theory that Obama is behind the leaks.
