Lon Snowden, một quân nhân từng tin tưởng tuyệt đối vào nhà nước tận thiện, hôm qua ngày 31-7-2013, đã phải thú nhận trong cuộc phỏng vấn với BBCvà Guardian rằng ông không tin tưởng nhà nước Mỹ sẽ đối xử với con ông, Edward Snowden, theo đúng tinh thần nguyên lý pháp trị hiến định.
Một cách rõ ràng và thẳng thắn hơn Lon Snowden tuyên bố nếu ông là Edward ông cũng xin ở lại Nga, vì Nga là quốc gia duy nhất còn lại đủ sức bảo vệ Edward dưới sức mạnh áp lực của guồng máy nhà nước Âu Châu và Mỹ:
"Nếu con tôi về Mỹ, nó sẽ bị đối xử tàn tệ. Nó sẽ bị ném vào hố sâu. Nó sẽ bị khóa miệng...Với tư cách là người Bố, tôi đau buồn vì chuyện nó làm... Tôi ước gì nó chỉ đơn giản ngồi ở nhà Hawaii làm việc và lãnh lương cao, sống với bạn gái xinh đẹp và hưởng thụ thiên đàng hạ giới. Nhưng với tư cách là một công dân Mỹ, Tôi tuyêt đối cảm ơn việc nó đã làm:.."("If he comes back to the United States, he is going to be treated horribly. He is going to be thrown into a hole. He is not going to be allowed to speak." "As a father it pains me what he did," "I wish my son could simply have sat in Hawaii and taken the big paycheck, lived with his beautiful girlfriend and enjoyed paradise. But as an American citizen, I am absolutely thankful for what he did.")
Một cách mở mắt hơn, Lon Snowden vỗ thẳng măt nhà nước Mỹ khi cho biết ông được FBI yêu cầu ông đến Nga gặp con ông, và ông nói thẳng ông không để bị dùng làm công cụ tình cảm ngồi ở bãi đậu máy bay cho FBI tấn công áp lực con trai ông (Gượm đã mấy chú nhỏ, tôi sẽ không ngồi ỏ bãi đậu máy may để làm dụng cụ tình cảm cho chúng mày đâu.."-'Wait a minute, folks, I'm not going to sit on the tarmac to be an emotional tool for you.'")
Ông đã ý thức được tính vô luân bất nhân của bọn nhà nước an ninh chỉ muốn lạm dụng đê tiện mọi khía cạnh tình cảm gia đình để hại người. Ông ngỏ ý sẽ chỉ dến Nga với điều kiện là phải được gặp mặt con ông, và KHÔNG ĐỂ BỊ DÙNG LÀM DỤNG CỤ TAY SAI cho Nhà nước Nga hay Mỹ HẠI CON ÔNG...
Điều kiện này chỉ có Putin có khả năng cung ứng thỏa mãn, và luật sư Nga của Snowden đang tiến hành yêu cầu chính đáng này.
Ít nhất cho đến nay, Snowden yên tâm vì biết Bố anh đã hiểu việc anh làm và ủng hộ anh, một sự ủng hộ tinh thần rất quan trọng và rất lớn với Snowden lúc này! (dĩ nhiên là khác hẳn đám thân nhân gia đình "bản sắc văn hóa" Á Châu, Việt Nam v,v là sẽ lăn đùng ra khóc lóc thảm thiết, tự nguyện làm áp lực người nhà mình; hoặc sẽ viết kiến nghị "kêu oan" xin khoan hồng khoan đỏ; mặt khác lo chạy tiền hối lộ móc nối bên trong -và bên ngoài thì lên đài báo luôn bày tỏ "vững tâm tin vào công lý sáng suốt của chính phủ nhà nước ta v.v")
Đây là chỉ dấu tác động tích cực của hành động can đảm và tinh thần công dân công lý đối kháng của Snowden; nó cũng là chỉ dấu tính bất lực của mục tiêu mà bạo lực đe dọa Nhà nước mong đợi.
Và cho đến nay, một sự thật cẩn phải được khẳng định, sau vụ án Manning và trong diễn biến Snowden, là các "chuyên gia pháp lý" đều nằm trong tình trạng đoán mò, không phải vì họ dốt hay thiếu kiến thức pháp luật, mà chính là kiến thức pháp luật cũng như chính nền pháp luật - văn bản hiến pháp KHÔNG CÓ GIÁ TRỊ GÌ với bọn nhà nước. Nhà nước tự diễn giải theo nhu cầu của nó và cái gọi là nền công lý, quốc hội chỉ là tay sai diễn giải biểu đồng tình mà thôi. Glenn Greenwald đã đúc kết sự thật này trong quyền sách của ông rằng luôn có HAI NỀN PHÁP LÝ, "With Liberty and Justice for Some: How the Law Is Used to Destroy Equality and Protect the Powerful" một cái đặc quyền cho bọn cầm quyền nhà nước và một cái khác dùng để cai trị và trừng phạt dân.
Với người tỉnh thức, Tổ quốc cuối cùng cũng phải nhường bước cho công lý , công tâm và tình người.
Một lần nữa Nhân Chủ xin trân trọng cảm tạ việc làm công lý và lòng can đảm hy sinh của Edward Snowden và những cộng sự viên của anh. Xin chúc mừng sự tỉnh thức của Cha Con ông Snowden!

Edward Snowden's father says FBI asked him to fly to Moscow
Lon Snowden says his son will be 'treated horribly' if he returns to US and in his place he would stay in Russia

The father of the whistleblower Edward Snowden has said the FBI tried to persuade him to fly to Moscow so that he could encourage his son to return to the United States.
"I said: 'I want to be able to speak with my son … Can you set up communications?' and it was 'Well, we are not sure,'" Lon Snowden told the Washington Post. "I said: 'Wait a minute, folks, I'm not going to sit on the tarmac to be an emotional tool for you.'"
Snowden's father, who is retired from the US Coast Guard, also said he preferred Edward to remain in Russia, where he is stuck in the transit zone of Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport while Russia considers his request for temporary asylum.
"If he comes back to the United States, he is going to be treated horribly. He is going to be thrown into a hole. He is not going to be allowed to speak." The 52-year-old said he had been as "surprised as the rest of America" when his son, who worked for a contractor, was revealed as the source of the leaks about surveillance by the National Security Agency to the Guardian. "As a father it pains me what he did," Snowden said. "I wish my son could simply have sat in Hawaii and taken the big paycheck, lived with his beautiful girlfriend and enjoyed paradise. But as an American citizen, I am absolutely thankful for what he did."
Lon Snowden said that two days after Edward was revealed as the whistleblower, FBI agents had arrived at his home outside Allentown, Pennsylvania. He had spoken to them for four hours and shared emails he had exchanged with his son. Later the FBI asked him to fly to Moscow. FBI officials declined to comment on why negotiations about the idea foundered, the Post said.
As to why Lon Snowden had not flown to Moscow himself, he said: "Sure, I could get on a flight tomorrow to Russia. I'm not sure if I could get access to Edward." He said he had communicated with his son through intermediaries.
In an interview with the state-owned Rossiya 24 TV, the older Snowden, his words translated into Russian, said he had yet to decline the idea of travelling to Moscow at the FBI's request, but would first like to know what the agency wanted him to do. "If [Edward] wants to spend the rest of his life in Russia, I would agree. I am not against it. If I were in his place, I would stay in Russia, and I hope Russia will accept him."
He did not think his son would get a fair trial in the US. "I hope that he will return home and appear in court … But I don't expect that … a court would be fair. We cannot guarantee a fair court." He also thanked Vladimir Putin and his government for the "courage" they had shown in keeping his son safe. Lon Snowden also addressed his son, saying: "Your family is well and we love you. We hope you are healthy, we hope you are well, I hope to see you soon, but most of all I want you to be safe." He added: "I want you to find safe haven. I know the last 55 days have been very difficult."
Anatoly Kuchera, a Russian lawyer helping Edward Snowden, told the programme he thought the asylum request would be granted "in the coming days" and the US had not sent an official request for extradition. "Just saying 'hand him over' is absolutely dishonourable and incorrect," he said.
"I said: 'I want to be able to speak with my son … Can you set up communications?' and it was 'Well, we are not sure,'" Lon Snowden told the Washington Post. "I said: 'Wait a minute, folks, I'm not going to sit on the tarmac to be an emotional tool for you.'"
