Has any evidence emerged detailing how the US was involved in the detention of Greenwald's partner?

[Cali_Democrat]

Just curious.

I haven't seen any evidence yet.

Any links would be much appreciated.

1. Obama did it.

I think he and Bo personally went over and did this dirty deed.

He's certainly taking a lot of the blame for it.

But then he always does.

3. Bo Jackson?

I mean, I would take Bo too he is a living legend.

[NYC_SKP]

4. No. No. No! The OTHER Bo!

[Rex]

7. Oh hell...an even bigger legend!

Think he is giving the POTUS some gee-tar lessons? I mean hell, if you are going to be a rockstar, might as well hang with the big dogs!

9. Yep, the knee jerk reaction on DU is typical

And if you don't believe them you are drinking cool-aid, a worshiper, a cult member, a paid shill, etc. etc etc.

2. It has got to be coming, while GG stays behind the reinforced barrier.

5. Nope. But I'm sure that Beck, Rush, etc will be on it tomorrow...

... working on making up some sort of story

6. Doesn't pass the sniff test with me. The Brits are allied with us;

the Brazilians, not so much. Now ask, "which country detained
Miranda?"

8. I have no doubt the UK will share whatever information they find out with the US.

I mean I know we are not attached at the hip anymore, but we are still pretty dam close with the UK.

12. And the Brits have a lot at stake with their own surveillance society

which gives them a strong interest in whatever documents Snowden's still keeping under wraps; and they have their own long history of abusing terrorism laws.

15. Thanks...didn't know that! nt

10. Interesting detail: Berlin didn't detain Mr. Miranda

Why the (US ally) UK?

[snappyturtle]

11. Nor did Brazil....I assume he left from there. nt

[pnwmom]

13. Maybe they are especially concerned about what might be in the thousands

of documents Snowden/Greenwald are still threatening to release. There's no way to know.

If Obama was behind this, wouldn't you expect him to ask people in both countries to detain Miranda?

[leftstreet]

14. Ask? Yes. Compliance from Germany? Not so much n/t

[Cali_Democrat]

19. You think Germany isn't a US ally?

You realize the largest military base outside of US soil sits on Germany, right?

[KittyWampus]

20. AND Snowden included Germany's surveillance in his "revelations" too. He fingered a lot of countries

[silvershadow]

16. Not yet. nt

[Pretzel_Warrior]

17. So any direct lines from this to Obama are baseless speculation at this point

That's what I thought.

[silvershadow]

18. i don't have any idea. nt

[Pretzel_Warrior]

21. If there's no evidence then it is all wild speculation. By definition.

[silvershadow]

22. Perhaps it is, I'm just not sure to what you are referring. I said "not yet" because, even if there

is no evidence, it really means nothing to me that there isn't evidence. I will continue to speculate as needed to "connect the dots". So far I'm batting about a thousand.

23. "Evidence"?! those who believe greenwald's every utterance.. don't need no

stinkin' EVIDENCE!
