Hello.
(Disclaimer : as I'm not sure where I should put this thread, and that to understand my hypothesis one should know well the French context, I put it in the French section - even if I know it's not the right place - so, mods, please move this thread where it will fit.)
Today a petition was created on Change(dot)org to ask the French government to offer Snowden political asylum :
_http://www.change.org/fr/p%C3%A9titions/fran%C3%A7ois-hollande-accordez-l-asile-politique-%C3%A0-edward-snowden
( BTW, this was celebrated by MSM newspapers, with funny sentences like this one :
"il est indispensable d'accueillir Edward Snowden dans un véritable État de droit, afin qu'il puisse se défendre et participer au débat sur le renforcement des libertés publiques."
_http://www.lexpress.fr/actualite/monde/manifeste-pour-edward-snowden_1547528.html )
It seems to be a noble request to help a noble man... but is it really ? Or rather a trap ? Just watch the list of the first 53 signatories :

Among others :

8. Daniel Cohn Bendit
17. Jack Lang
32. Luc Ferry
38. Michel Rocard
49. Pierre Bergé
