Because as far as the general public, rather than pro-Snowden minority is concerned, he gave us concrete evidence that he betrayed his country and that's all that matters is that we are getting fucked as long as he's not prosecuted or otherwise handled.
Fixing that for you.
Never mind that he would have a price on his head no matter where he walked.
He's effectively open season for anyone that wants him gone.
Snowden asserts that he brought no classified files with him when he left the US.
All he has is assumptions that are taken up by the pro-Snowden (and anti-America) choir.
The only people that should be protected is the people that end up catching, prosecuting, convicting, and carrying out the sentence on Snowden.
Given that the Russian government is protecting him as much as they are, he handed some intelligence over to buy himself some time. That's the most likely manner in which they'd offer him protection.
How about directly linking to the article instead of the commentary?
DFW looks terrible. Separate buildings and across the street from each other. Plus the terminals are curved. So you have to walk a long way around and then over a bridge.
They have a bidirectional train line that links them all. For all the concourses they have, it makes things quite well.
ATL is all perfectly straight. You can go between opposite ends of the airport in like 10 minutes. Going from B to C is like 30 seconds by train, or like 2 minutes by walking fast on the moving sidewalks.
That helps if you're flying Delta, but doesn't help if you're not.
As opposed to a hub-like arrangement (DFW), ATL has a series of long concourses linked by that tunnel. If you manage to have one flight on one concourse, and it's clear on the end of the other one, you'll see the problem as clear as day.
Given that Snowden's endangered the country in ways not unlike Bergdahl, bringing him to court is the only way to get the truth. That, and overwhelming evidence against him still is a fair trial - while he thinks he's entitled to an unfair trial in his favor.
For that, I stand with America by standing with the efforts to bring him in. If anything, it should also mean that anyone that meets him (or gains knowledge of exact whereabouts) but does not turn him is fit to be considered aiding a fugitive.
Given that they would do such to secure his stay, it would be the simplest explanation to say he did.
Excellent/efficient airport layout/design
Try having to go from one concourse to another, then you'll find out that it's not so good.
As I've said upthread, ATL could learn from DFW on how to do a large airport while minimizing travel between gates.
Given the layout of ATL, going from one concourse to another (especially if you go between a civilized airline and Delta) requires a trip to one people-mover that unnecesarily increases the distance. Perhaps they could take a lesson from somewhere like DFW and fix that.
If I want online access, my phone does it quite well.
The only American content in those cars is the fact that they use permatemps to assemble Japanese-designed cars. They're the manufacturing equivalent of guest workers.
Perhaps when the put a bit more car in
Also competition makes us all better. Why are we afraid of a little competition?
Not if businesses are only seeking the most compliant party, not the most competent party.
It's why the US first sought slaves, then Southerners, then Mexicans, and then the rest of the Third World. It's also why businesses want contractors, which gives union-type protections to employers against their own workforce. Workers are more easily controlled in those countries versus developed countries like the US, UK, Western Europe(although contract-based hiring doesn't help), and Australia.
No, guest worker systems on the whole represent anti-citizen fraud. They're the 21st Century version of indentured servants.
