United States intelligence fugitive Edward Snowden has left Hong Kong on a flight bound for Moscow, reports say.
The South China Morning Post, quoting what it says are credible sources, said he was due to arrive in Moscow on Sunday evening.
It said Moscow would not be his final destination.
Snowden, an intelligence analyst, fled to Hong Kong in May after revealing details of extensive internet and phone surveillance by the US gencies.

Interesting chess move by Snowden, if true. Will be a relatively safe place for him, but a huge propaganda coup for the USA.

When I heard the report, I wondered if Snowden had been told by the HK authorities that they would've been legally compelled to hand him over and suggested he go to Moscow (I don't think the Iceland idea has materialized yet, has it?).
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
