Berlin, November 2 (RHC)-- A German lawmaker who met with National Security Agency whistleblower Edward Snowden in Russia says Snowden could travel to Germany to testify about NSA spying if legal obstacles can be cleared.

Germany has demanded answers after reports the United States tapped the phone of German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Anger over U.S. spying has spread to Asia after documents from Snowden revealed U.S. and foreign embassies across East and Southeast Asia are
housing equipment used for U.S. surveillance.

Indonesia summoned its Australian ambassador after it was revealed the Australian embassy in Jakarta is a hub for the U.S. spy efforts.

In other news, Edward Snowden is reportedly starting a new job next week in Russia. His lawyer told a Russian news agency that Snowden has been hired by a major Russian website.

    The very best of luck to Mr. Snowden, a person of amazing courage. I hope he does have an opportunity to travel to Germany (and elsewhere). I also hope that during his travels, Snowden is provided with sufficient protection to prevent an attack by US agents or their minions.
