In reply to the discussion: Contradiction: 9/24/13 secret rendition jet and 9/27/13 Obama statement on Snowden [View all]Cali_Democrat
(30,439 posts)4. Help me out here
So this plane allegedly flew from the Washington DC area to Denmark..around the same time Snowden arrived in Russia.
Therefore, this is proof that the US intended to snatch Snowden from Russia and Obama lied about not scrambling jets to get him when he spoke 3 days after this plane allegedly landed in Denmark to snatch Snowden who was about 1000 miles away in Moscow?

Nope, still an epic fail in terms of anything resembling not only proof, but a hint of correlation.

At this point anything is possible because nothing has been proved or disproved.

I'm not ticked off. Flying a plane to Cleveland doesnt make sense to pick someone up from Miami

Yup, just like the hamhanded diplomacy about Evo's plane -- there is no evidence -- YET.

Hmmm. Actually, the term "rendition" in its standard use means an extradition-like transfer,

We both read the article twice. It offers absolutely zero proof of the allegation.

It's not a suggestive coincidence at all. Tons of these jets fly around all the time.
