Those in the US will no longer CARE what Snowden found - instead will see it as a breach of security and blame Russia. Any calculating mind would seek to turn what was an attack by us, into a perceived attack on us.
If Russia decides to do this, we will end up in direct military conflict with her, and spin it to have the world's support.
3 - I am fairly sure a deal has been offered in which Snowden has an "accident" in exchange for the US backing off. In this scenario, the Ukraine must stay intact, with "new" elections that will install a more western friendly government, while putting the radical fascists on the back burner. The Ukraine would have to sign with the EU, but still be allowed limited trade with Russia in a compromise.
While our main intent, from the failed 2004 "Orange" revolution we tried to provoke there is still economic domination of the Ukraine, demonizing and emasculating Russia further is the main prize. With China, Russia is the only other economic powerhouse that threatens our supremacy.
The march is on, still. And the Snowden effect just made it all a little more dangerous.
That is how I see it, were I a strategist in the employ of the empire, anyway.
