Maybe all the booze that would normally be consumed by passengers on Aeroflot found its way into the bloodstream of John Kerry, who as America’s top diplomat supposedly in the midst of delicate discussions with his Russian and Chinese counterparts, chimed in with the rather abrasively impolitic ……
Of course, what Mr. Snowden champions is not “internet freedom”, but rather the fundamental human rights and protections against tyranny that are so precisely articulated in the United States Constitution. The NSA and its affiliated agencies in the vast networks of surveillance and control have been making fetid hash from what used to be considered inviolable and inalienable.

Or perhaps his disappearance has already become part of our secret history?
