Were these the same Portland 7 that worked for Verna Katz at the same time as Chief Moose (Wiggins)?

pleaded guilty Thursday to charges of conspiring to help al-Qaida and the Taliban during the war in Afghanistan....The brothers also pleaded guilty to firearms charges in exchange for having the main charge of conspiracy to levy war against the United States dismisssed. Both face up to 14 years in federal prison.

I'm confused, if they pleaded guilty of consipiring to aid the Taliwackers and AlQuesies during the war, how is that different from conspiring to wage war against the United States?

I can see why they'd want that main charge dropped though, as it's equivalent to conspiring to commit treason, by the Constitutional definition of treason. The penalty for that is getting your 72 raisens.
