Bradley Manning's actions was to end the oppression of the USA military. Either Iraq is an example of an immoral war or it isn't, because, 100s of thousands are now dead, including USA military personnel caught up in the meat grinder.
In a country like Iraq with a population of 25 million, one hundred thousand people can be an entire sector of it's population. There are estimates of 800,000 dead from the Iraq War. That is three percent of the population. In a country like the USA, three percent of the people, including infants, is 9 million people.
Now, if we are to believe invasion of a country in an immoral war is wrong, then that decision has to begin with the voter that puts these monsters into office in the first place. That means such wars are conducted with the influence of political goals.
If national security can be breached by people with minimal reason to be quiet about the nation's secrets, as in the case with Carlyle's Snowden, then there is no moral dictate to prevent corrupt political paradigms that put monsters in office all the time.
Carlyle makes lots of money, that money corrupts morals all the time. It corrupts the morals of citizens benefiting from those monies as well as the politicians put into office with those monies. Now, if Carlyle has national security clearance from their well paid personnel that means they can leverage power in the political STABILITY of the USA and leverage power over forever wars that rob resources from other nations, like Iraq.
If that power to leverage political outcomes is due to mass surveillance, then it would seem to me Mr. Snowden had a conscience and not just a naive state of mind.
Mr. Snowden closes the circle on the ability of Wall Street to dictate the power of Wall Street over the USA, it's people and the actions of it's military. He may or may not have intended that, but, he knew at a rudimentary level he was doing the right thing. He, himself, rejected the idea anyone could tap into his knowledge about his life and use it to their advantage. That is the USA. That is the citizenry of the USA.
Mr. Snowden is not the problem here, the loose regulation over national security clearance and IT'S LONGEVITY after FORMER military, intelligence and basically employees and interns no longer work for the government is DEFINITELY the problem.
Mr. Snowden is not a stupid person. Most Americans, if not all including those with disabilities, are not stupid people, because they understand their own lives and how it is impacted by forces they can't control. Mr. Snowden knew he was in territory compliments of Carlyle where he should not have been and he disdained that ability and the fact he was compromising his fellow Americans. That is not naivety, it is being a loyal patriot and good citizen. Heck, Cub Scouts learn that very early on.
And let me make one other aspect of Mr. Snowden's reality understood. He was blackmailed, coersion, by Carlyle. That is what Wall Street does to their employees, they compensate them with high salaries, benefits, perks and status to maintain them within their corporate sovereignty.
Ask Mr. Snowden if his services were realistic to his salary? He would say no. That is also part of what disturbed him. He was over compensated for his silence while his national security clearance was being used for the Carlyle's purpose. Snowden is a moral man. There is no doubt in my mind he is a moral man with a clear understanding of the importance of his nation to his life.
Carlyle brought all this on themselves, no one else did.
So, there you have it. The media now has the understanding they can seek to pivot on to justify their own leverage of power.
