‘Czar Wars’ Over Snowden in Russia

Wednesday, 26 June 2013 | by Pat's Picks

The New York Post has a field day with the Snowden-in-Russia story, framing the whole saga as a B movie called “Czar Wars.” Inside, the paper superimposes Edward Snowden’s face on a pig’s body and says President Vladimir Putin told President Obama to “take a flying leap” when he refused to turn over Snowden, who has been holed up in a Russian airport for two days, over to US authorities. Said Putin: “I’d prefer not to deal with this issue at all. It’s like shearing a piglet — too much squealing, too little wool.”
