EDWARD SNOWDEN STILL REMAINS ELUSIVE TO THE HEADACHE OF US

US demand to extradite Edward Snowden from the Russian soil has been rejected by Vladimir Putin, Russian President, echoing an absolute ‘NO’.

Julian Assange, the international whistle-blower of Wikileaks cocooned in the Equadorian Embassy in Britain and whose security is taken for granted is certain about Edward Snowden’s whereabouts and that Snowden is very much safe wherever he is but the safe haven of Mr.Snowden and one of the assistants of Mr.Assange are secrets which he keeps close to his chest. Poor Bradly Mannings. While revealing the secret cables, which US thought with audacity that they couldn’t be divulged to anybody by anyone, experienced a shock when millions of secret cables collections and classified documents relating to various countries fell into the hands of the International whistle blower Wiki Leaks founded by Julian Assange might not have had the nightmare awaiting him at the hands of FBI sleuths stretching upto date and after.

But Mr.Snowden is of a different stuff and before emplaning to Hong Kong, he kept all secrets to himself, very much aware of the punishment which would have caught up with him.

All secrets, which the US’s Secret Intelligent Establishments seized from the internet agencies were made public inviting the wrath of US. The Big Brother must have felt naked before the entire world. An infuriated China whose secrets constituted a huge chunk reacted angrily to the demand of US to force Hong Kong to extradite Mr.Snowden by refusing the demand outright.

The hubris with which US moved ahead in keeping all its secrets and the same hubris with which it moved ahead on the question of a more secure US, than other nations got a rude shock thru Brad Mannings, Edward Snowden and the 9/11 World Trade Centre attack leading to its demolition. 

Where could be Snowden. Whether he has already flown to Cuba, on his way to Equador where he is supposed to seek asylum, where he is supposed to be granted asylum, none knows for sure now. Anyhow US ‘s efforts to get him extradited could fall on deaf ears.
