At that time, Lindh was being roundly derided in the United States as the so-called American Talib soldier who had betrayed his country and gone to Afghanistan to work on behalf of the Al Qaeda terrorist network.

What do they mean "At that time"? We are still roundly deriding him as the American Taliban. The only difference is, our initial anger has cooled, but we still know he's a traitor and we STILL want him punished. His citizenship should be revoked and he should never be permitted to step foot on American soil again as long as he lives.

Aw, lighten up. He's entitled to American soil . . . about six feet worth, I'd say.

No finer words have been spoken on this subject. All these people, both on FR and elsewhere that refer to him as an American irritate the hell out of me. As far as I'm concerned, the moment you put the uniform on of another country, you are no longer an American, and should not get special treatment if captured. He should be treated like any other enemy POW.

True. If he survives his trial and jail, I suspect he will not survive long in this country anyway. He will never be 'free' again because he hated freedom and embraced tyrants.

A question for all of you.

What if he were fighting for the IDF or the French Foreign Legion? If we went to war with Isreal or France, would all the Americans be stripped of citizenship and killed without trial?

I don't approve of fighting for a country which is contrary to your citizenship. That includes France and, yes, even Isreal.
