If you were a movie director...
...this would make a great story. In real life, maybe not so much?
The cameras zoom in on a conversation:
An "acquaintance" of Edward Snowden: 'Pack your bag, man! You gotta get outta here. The US Government has just asked that Hong Kong extradite you immediately. Hong Kong will not make a rushed decision. It is not in their nature."
The "Spy": Where do I go?
A "Friend": Moscow has said they will be willing to give you temporary cover?
The "Spy": But where do I go from there?
The "acquaintance": Your girlfriend has confided to a friend that she would like for you to be as close to Mexico as possible...
The "Spy": If I fly into Venezuela, I can travel to any other country in that area without too much hassle, including Mexico.
The "Friend": When do we do it?
Camera zoom shows a plane taking off from Moscow airport.
But this is reality. This is America. The Company is angry. The script doesn't always turn out the way it is written..
