The reason you have that is because there was one individual, who was willing to risk everything in order to protect the privacy rights of German citizens and German political leaders, and they (both) benefited greatly from that. To watch the same very people who have benefited so much from the sacrifice of Edward Snowden, namely German politicians, be unwilling to risk anything in order to do for him what he did for them, which is to protect his political rights from persecution has been, I think, not just surprising but kind of horrible to watch. I actually do not think that the German government would have to risk all that much if it were to give asylum to Snowden but what we saw even in the investigation that the German Parliament pretended to do was that they weren&#8217;t willing to risk anything, even bring Edward Snowden to Germany just to interview him or to question him if it meant alienating the United States or angering the United States in any way. So I think the investigation here, the attempts to find out what the NSA was really doing were more symbolic than they were genuine.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><b>Donate to support independent, non-profit and investigative journalism!<br \/>\n<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/en\/donate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here<\/a> to support independent and non-profit journalism with a donation!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/en\/donate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1283 size-large alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Banner-Spende-Webseite_E-1024x342.jpg\" alt=\"Banner Spende Webseite_E\" width=\"640\" height=\"214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Banner-Spende-Webseite_E-1024x342.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Banner-Spende-Webseite_E-300x100.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Banner-Spende-Webseite_E-700x233.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Banner-Spende-Webseite_E.jpg 1418w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>About Glenn Greenwald:<\/h2>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/421952-970x600-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-thumbnail wp-image-1648 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/421952-970x600-1-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"421952-970x600-1\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>Glenn Greenwald<\/b> is an American <a title=\"Lawyer\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lawyer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lawyer<\/a>, <a title=\"Journalist\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Journalist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">journalist<\/a> and author.
