Edward Snowden is no Daniel Ellsberg, says Princeton University political theorist and author of Secrets and Leaks: The Dilemma of State Secrecy. Some compare what Snowden did in June with the actions of a former military analyst who leaked the Pentagon Papers in 1971. Some say the ends in this matter do not justify the means; others say Ellberg was too impatient to let the process work. Author: Snowden didn’t want to put up with the system; Ellberg didn’t flee abroad to avoid prosecution.”]
