John Walker - the American Taliban fighter is now a POW. What should be done with him?

1. Treated as a POW
2. Treated as a traitor
3. Given special treatment because he's an American and may have been brainwashed.

What do you say? I say he's a traitor and should be executed like any other traitor.
