124 In view of such past successes of the Russian intelligence services, it cannot be precluded that there was another person in the NSA working with Snowden who used an enthusiastic as cover to prevent any light from falling on his own surreptitious spying. While it may seem extremely unlikely that Snowden had such assistance, the alternative scenario, that Snowden broke into the sealed compartments and made off with the documents without any assistance, seems equally unlikely. Even if Snowden had been, as he claims, a pure idealist seeking to right a perceived wrong, it does exclude the possibility of his becoming entangled in the plots of others. Intelligence services make it their business to bring about such witting or unwitting entanglements.

Putin allegedly authorized safe‑passage for Edward Snowden, raising questions about Russian facilitation of the NSA leak

Putin allegedly authorized safe‑passage for Edward Snowden, raising questions about Russian facilitation of the NSA leak The passage suggests that President Vladimir Putin personally approved Snowden’s entry and transport in Russia, potentially explaining Aeroflot’s visa waiver and rapid extraction. If true, it links a head of state to the protection of a U.S. intelligence whistleblower, opening avenues to investigate diplomatic communications, flight‑manifest records, and any quid‑pro‑quo with Russian officials. The claim is not widely reported, offers concrete follow‑up steps (e.g., request airline logs, interview Russian consular staff, examine NSA‑Russia liaison logs), and implicates a high‑ranking leader, but lacks hard evidence, keeping it in the moderate‑to‑strong lead range. Key insights: Putin purportedly told an unnamed “agent” that Snowden would be welcome if he stopped damaging Russian‑U.S. relations.; Aeroflot allegedly waived passport/visa checks for Snowden’s flight, possibly on Putin’s orders.; Russian officials reportedly whisked Snowden from Moscow airport to a waiting car within hours of arrival.

Speculative CIA Mole Warning May Have Enabled Snowden Leak

Speculative CIA Mole Warning May Have Enabled Snowden Leak The passage offers a plausible but unverified lead that a Russian‑linked mole within the NSA, warned about by a CIA source, could have facilitated Edward Snowden’s disclosures. It names Snowden and references CIA and NSA structures, but lacks concrete evidence, dates, or transaction details, limiting immediate investigative action. Nonetheless, it points to a potential insider network worth probing. Key insights: CIA mole allegedly warned NSA in 2007 about possible Russian recruitment at Fort Meade.; No mole was found in 2010; speculation that an undiscovered mole may have aided Snowden.; Suggested link between a hidden collaborator and Snowden’s move to Booz Allen and Hong Kong.
