This document is page 184 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein, stamped as evidence by the House Oversight Committee. The text discusses the timeline of Edward Snowden's leaks, specifically questioning how documents released in 2016 (via The Intercept) regarding Israeli drone intercepts were distributed if Snowden supposedly destroyed his files. The author cites a former KGB officer who suggests that Snowden's continued release of documents while in Russia was likely orchestrated or approved by Russian intelligence services.
