MADRID (AP) — Spain on Friday said it had been warned along with other European countries that former U.S. intelligence worker Edward Snowden was aboard the Bolivian presidential plane this week, an acknowledgement that the manhunt for the fugitive leaker had something to do with the plane's unexpected diversion to Austria.
It is unclear whether the United States, which has told its European allies that it wants Snowden back, warned Madrid about the Bolivian president's plane. U.S. officials will not detail their conversations with European countries, except to say that they have stated the U.S.'s general position that it wants Snowden back.
President Barack Obama has publicly displayed a relaxed attitude toward Snowden's movements, saying last month that he wouldn't be "scrambling jets to get a 29-year-old hacker."
But the drama surrounding the flight of Bolivian President Evo Morales, whose plane was abruptly rerouted to Vienna after apparently being denied permission to fly over France, suggests that pressure is being applied behind the scenes.
Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Garcia-Margallo told Spanish National Television that "they told us that the information was clear, that he was inside."
He did not identify who "they" were and declined to say whether he had been in contact with the U.S. But he said that European countries' decisions were based on the tip. France has since sent a letter of apology to the Bolivian government.
Meanwhile, secret-spilling website WikiLeaks said that Snowden, who is still believed to be stuck in a Moscow airport's transit area, had put in asylum applications to six new countries.
The organization said in a message posted to Twitter on Friday that it wouldn't be identifying the countries involved "due to attempted U.S. interference."
A number of countries have already rejected asylum applications from Snowden.

You can see the tremendous pressure being put on Snowden and Governments to prevent him releasing anymore information.

The whole secret game of things kept secret from the people of the U.S. and the World kept secret ever since World War II and beyond might come out. But, I would say it is unlikely because of the unbelievable pressure being put on Countries not to harbor Snowden.

I think it is important to realize that Governments around the world (not only the U.S.) are learning everything and anything they can about everyone on earth for a variety of purposes. Whether you are looking at this from a UFO place (and how humans on earth are contacted from other times (from the past, present and future) or from other worlds (from the past, present or future) or you are just looking at it from the point of view of (how can I get and keep a job or create a business and not be starved to death or prevented from doing that by world governments?), the information Snowden now carries might be the difference between life and death for billions of people worldwide. But, will he be allowed to reveal this or die somewhere in an Airport somewhere on Earth? Unknown.


I suppose this could be seen as the search for justice by The Lone Ranger and Tonto in the new comedy movie. Idealism is great but pragmatism actually keeps people alive. Something to think about.
