Whistleblower Edward Snowden to Seek Asylum From 'Repressive' U.S.

Posted on 11:30 AM by Unknown

 It's come to this:

 Rather than face charges in the United States, Snowden has fled to Hong Kong. He plans to seek asylum in a nation with a strong civil liberties record, such as Iceland. Americans are familiar with stories of dissidents fleeing repressive regimes such as those in China or Iran and seeking asylum in the United States. Snowden is in the opposite position. He’s an American leaving the land of his birth because he fears persecution.
