I keep hearing, particularly in the mainstream media, that Edward Snowden has broken the law. Even Edward Snowden confirms that he has broken the law. But let’s take a look at this law that has been broken; let us shine a light on it, and examine it carefully:
Congress passed laws which essentially gave permission to
certain government agencies, (at least according to how they secretly
interpreted them), to engage in extremely serious crimes and unconstitutional activities, and to keep those crimes secret and require
the same of anyone who
becomes aware of them, and further, to take no action to inhibit or prevent those nefarious
crimes from continuing.
What Snowden and others have done is ignore
this legislation, and instead of accepting as valid any law that sanctions crimes
and unconstitutional activities, the whistleblowers have honored their sacred oath and citizenship responsibilities,
namely, to steadfastly preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution against
any enemy, foreign or domestic, which, as it turns out, includes the very people who passed these laws and those who
use
this legislation as cover
to engage in, cover up, and lie about their unconscionable crimes and immoral activities.
What we now know… what has been revealed to us is that there are a great many enemies of the Constitution now
operating in the United States who have acquired the power to do great harm to the Constitution and the citizens of this country for their own selfish
purposes. Among them include many of our elected officials (including the President
and members of Congress), but also many judges, lawyers, appointed officials, members of the military, those who run the security apparatus of the government,
operatives in the mainstream media, and others who have been willing
to sacrifice their honor and integrity for personal profit,
position, or power, such as corporate executives and consultants who are part of what has been called the
military-industrial complex.
What we know now is that Edward Snowden and other whistleblowers are attempting to bring to light what essentially amounts to the
effective overthrow of the legitimate government of the United States. Snowden and others are honorable, brave, and steadfast patriots
who possibly have saved the nation from ruin. If we are unable
now to save the Constitution from those who would destroy it, along with the hopes and dreams of every American and
our posterity, it will not be the failure of the likes of Edward
Snowden.
Let us tell and describe in great detail to the American people what laws Snowden and others have broken; how those laws
are being implemented, and why Snowden and others have stood against
them. Let us tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. And let us deal appropriately with those who
try to keep the truth from us. So far, the truth has not been told because those who live
and perpetrate lies are hiding behind the most egregious illusion, smoke screen, and lie they would have us believe: that to tell the truth
will put us in danger.
Someone once said, seek the truth and the truth
shall set you free. What he might have failed to remind his listeners,
was that the failure to do just that will, in times like these, most certainly cause you to lose
whatever freedoms you still have left… possibly for the rest of your life,
and maybe the lifetimes of your posterity for generations to come.
I say to you, if
we fail to seek the truth, we will lose our freedoms, our joy, and the right to pass these sacred gifts on to
our children and grandchildren. Now, like never before, is the
time for all good people to seek and find courage, honor, strength,
and faith, in pursuit of the truth... and justice, and forgiveness too.

Citizenship
In
honor of, and with great admiration for, all those who have found
and keep searching for truth, honor, dignity, compassion, courage,
and love.
