WSA Issues World Passport to Edward Snowden Based Upon Article 13 (2) of<br>
the Universal Declaration of Human Rights<br>
<br>
For Immediate Release: Sunday July 7, 2013<br>
<br>
Edward Snowden is an alleged National Security Agency whistleblower who<br>
exposed the mass monitoring of United States citizens. Deprived of his<br>
United States Passport, he is currently immobilized in a Moscow Airport<br>
Transit Lounge with no ongoing ticket to any nation. This is a flagrant<br>
violation of Article 13 (2) of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights<br>
which states the following: (Everyone has the right to leave any<br>
country, including his own, and to return to his country.)<br>
<br>
The World Service Authority (WSA), a Washington D.C. corporation and<br>
executive branch of the World Government of World Citizens, has issued<br>
Mr. Snowden a World Passport so he can travel without limitation. 91<br>
year old Garry Davis and founder of WSA proclaims: "This unprecedented<br>
situation reveals dramatically the power of one individual versus the<br>
nation-state system, while highlighting individual sovereignty. The fact<br>
that Snowden is immobilized in a Moscow Airport Transit Lounge further<br>
exposes the fiction of nation-state frontiers."<br>
