The Cold War is heating up

Russian President Vladimir Putin will likely have his people execute American Edward Snowden after our 2014 elections and before our 2016 presidential election. He has Snowden right where he wants him until the time is right.

He will blame the death of Edward Snowden on the U.S. and the Central Intelligence Agency. The reasons he will do this are simple.

Snowden obtained what he describes as poison pill information about our government and its leadership when he worked for the National Security Agency as a way to stop our government from killing him.

This has been successful thus far, and he would have no reason to release this information.

Putin, on the other hand, does not hold this view and sees the poison pill information being released as an embarrassment to America, President Barack Obama, the CIA and the EU leadership.

Putin has handed us our lunch in Syria and will see this as a surefire way to continue to weaken the U.S. and advance his position on the world stage.

Bookmakers should be taking bets that this will go down as I have described, but there are some unknown variables that are dangerous for America.

Our corrupt government, to deflect and distract the people from focusing on what is exposed by the release of the poison pill information, will turn to its modus operandi of war as a cover for its misdeeds.

The progressive war mongers from both the Republican and Democratic parties will jump into action, wrapping themselves in the flag.
