Even GREENWALD admitted Snowden leaked to the Chinese.

"Greenwald said he would not have published some of the stories that ran in the South China Morning Post. “Whether I would have disclosed the specific IP addresses in China and Hong Kong the NSA is hacking, I don’t think I would have,” Greenwald said. “What motivated that leak though was a need to ingratiate himself to the people of Hong Kong and China.”

Deal. With. Reality. Snowden gave up classified data to the Chinese to get on their good side. Even Greenwald knows it.

(And if you think he hasn't done the same thing with Russia you're delusional.)
