Summary

This document appears to be page 144 of a book or report (likely by Edward Jay Epstein) analyzing the timeline of NSA document leaks attributed to Edward Snowden. It questions how Snowden could continue releasing documents via Wikileaks and The Intercept (regarding French presidents and Israeli operations) years after supposedly destroying his files in Hong Kong, suggesting potential involvement or approval by Russian intelligence services. The text details specific leaks from June and July 2015 and cites interviews with intelligence officials.
