>>Whether or not it is treason may be academic, notice that he saw OBL in an "Al Qaeda training camp". Who do they train in "Al Qaeda training camps"? I am guessing "Al Qaeda Members". One way it is treason, the other way it is terrorism.<<

Given this little piece of information, I'd say it was probably a conscious choice on his part to join the Taliban and fight against the U.S. That makes it both treason and terrorism.

If that turns out to be the case, I hope they make an example of him.

It's one thing to be brought up in that environment and not have too much of a choice, it's quite another to be given all the privileges he had and then choose to turn on your country.

As far as being and aid worker - those types were held prisoner. Why wasn't he?

Things are not looking too good for him.....
