Snowden

It has been a while since there have been any public statements from Edward Snowden. The press keeps referring to him as being holed up in the transit area of Sheremetyevo International Airport. And yet for the past week the press has flooded that very transit area and no one has found him.

Apparently, there are a bunch of locked areas. But at this point isn't it increasingly likely that Snowden is somewhere else? Like maybe an FSB interrogation facility? That would be my guess.

And also, when Snowden missed his flight to Havana last week, what if he thought he would be on the flight but was snatched before he could board? At the time, I treated it like Snowden decided not to show up, but what if he didn't have a choice? Is there any reason to believe he hasn't been disappeared already?
