For those outside of the US the link ( https://www.amnesty.org/en/get-involved/take-action/Edward-S... ) does not work. Anyone know what the correct link should be?

I did some search it appears that it doesn't exist now or that it never existed in the first place.

Nope, it definitely existed. I googled "snowden hero not traitor amnesty international" and the first link is a press release from the Amnesty International itself (the press release is also down) that links to that page: http://imgur.com/3Ttfjc5

I'm kinda suspicious of this site -- none of the ACLU, HRW , Amnesty International links work at the bottom. And none of those organizations use whoisguard.

Because they're not links, they're images.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Politics is the art of compromise.

Well, from a political point of view, Snowden is just a guy, and he did what he could do already. Pardoned or shot dead, makes little difference now (well, chilling effect is certainly even worse if the latter happened tomorrow, but its bad enough as it is). The important thing would be wistleblower protection laws changes that would protect a future Snowden from this situation.

Edward Snowden is hugely valuable politically because he stood up to the intelligence agencies and survived (so far). Most importantly, we have a moral obligation to get him pardoned. Snowden sacrificed a great deal already. He doesn't need to be martyred, he should be allowed to return home and continue his life.

And you think Putin is better? But Soros is where you draw the line.

Wait, Snowden is "on the wrong side of barricade" because someone supported him? Not supporting someone because someone else who you don't support is supporting him is not a valid argument in any situation.

Holy hell! Looking at the supporters page ( https://www.pardonsnowden.org/supporters ) I do have to admit that they've acquired support from some people that I never thought to see there, like Steve Wozniak, Noam Chomsky, and George Soros.

According to the comment just above yours, those "signatures" are unauthenticated?
