It's so secret, so bad, Greenwald knows it's a nightmare. Greenwald - The Great All Powerful Snowden:
"Snowden has enough information to cause harm to the U.S. government in a single minute than any other person has ever had....The U.S. government should be on its knees every day begging that nothing happen to Snowden, because if something does happen to him, all the information will be revealed and it could be its worst nightmare."
The interview (in Spanish, knees = 'rodillas'). Could 'information' be worse than an illegal war in Iraq and a million dead? Another Republican President would be the worst nightmare.
Comments
In related news, Russia formally still don't know nothing 'bout no Snowden.
One interesting possible reason is suggested at the end of the article:

Greenwald decries this crap summary here, noting Reuters had done a hatchet job on an interview he'd given to La Nación. Included is a link to the actual interview. and a rough English translation.
And he notes if you're more concerned about NSA activity than a continuing soap opera about Snowden or Greenwald, you can see articles here.

If Snowden has a "dead man's switch" that goes into effect he he is harmed, doesn't that invite other counties/ organizations that dislike the US to kill Snowden? The harm to the US would come without any action by the US.

Exactly what I was thinking. 'Kill Snowden, give the US it's worst nightmare'.
Nice of Greenwald to make Snowden a juicy target for anti-US groups/nations. Of course, if he is dispatched, the US will be blamed.
Of course for Greenwald, Snowden, Assange the propaganda is that the only evil in the world is found in the government of the United States, and only they can bring it to heel.
Greenwald has never written one article on the demonstrations against the government, the murder rate or the unrest in Brazil, where he lives.

Greenwald is a US lawyer who understands the US system the best. He writes about what he knows. (Does he even speaks Portuguese? or would he just be doing lazy blogging where he joins everyone else's outrage on the topic-du-jour?
Additionally, Brazil recognizes his gay marriage for immigration, something the US doesn't, so maybe that persuades him not to shit in his own nest for the time being.
Anyway, Brazil isn't the world's policeman and hardly registers on the world stage - we might as well go back to those enlightening debates of Ecuador's media censorship vs protecting against right wing media buy-up.

Greenwald makes money attacking the US and offering a hypothetical dead Snowden up as bait to anyone out there who wants to give the US a 'nightmare'. That would make for a whole series of dicey columns in the Guardian...no?
It's all about Greenwald, his meal ticket, his occupation, and making the most out of it while inferring the fantasy that the nasty ruthless US has it's sights set to dispatch his and Assange latest naif leaker.

Snowden and Greenwald have to be an integral parts of the story. Greenwald suggests that he is carefully vetting information suggesting that we are being kept in the dark above things the public should know about NSA. Snowden says he has things that could further worsen the reputation of the US.How are those claims not a part of the NSA story?
