Answer the question. If, say, an American Muslim in the U.S. Army quit and went off to Iraq to help defend it against the U.S. Army, and actually killed Americans in battle, would he be an admirable hero, or a traitor? People are howling for John Walker Lindh's blood, and he wasn't even in the U.S. Army. Or does loyalty to one's state trump an oath of allegiance to the United States?

Yes. And your analogy of Johnny Jihad is idiotic at best.
