Yep. I agree with the good senator.
In older and better times, we would simply line them up in front of a firing squad. In these times, we'll simply slap them on the wrist.

Graham, who has been vehement in his opposition to Americans who go to Iraq and calls them "treasonous," said he believes the "full force of the law should be applied to those American citizens who give aid or comfort to our enemies." Speaking of treason, how about filing charges against Jim McDermitt and David Bonior.

If the human shields have any ethical backbones they will take their punishment and will not try to escape it.
It's part of their new "relationship" with the US government, which they established, when they decided to go to Iraq.

NBC Nightly News did a kicker segment last night on so-called Human Shields - and COMPLETELY IGNORED the fact that a good percentage of the fools are heading home again after figgering out that being a human shield = danger. It looked to me like a piece that was produced a week or so ago that they ran for (1) lack of anything else, and (2) before it became widely known that the human shields had flown the coup. Plus, they had some time invested in it and didn't want that time to go to waste (and the reporter probably wanted his piece aired).

It's too bad they will be allowed back in to the U.S.

Give the 48hr notice. They get that time to leave and 1 second after that 48 hours is over, they should be considered traitors, and go from being innocent casulties to collateral damage.

Strip them of citizenship and send them to the non-democratic nation of their choice (make Zimbabwe or Sudan the default if they decline to choose). Give them the same 44 hours to pack up their crap before we deport them.

OK to play Devil's advocate...
I'm afraid all Sen. Graham can do is talk; there is no legal ground to prosecute these people under treason because legally, we are not at war. John Walker Lindh was convicted of possessing weapons that were used against U.S.-Nothern Alliance soldiers, not treason. There will be no punishment for the human shields other than social.

If he had told Ashcroft they were rednecks, he would be on their trail.

I would settle for dropping these seditious idiots out of a cargo plane over Iraq without a parachute.

saying that they feared for their safety I'm gonna be a human shield... oh wait I might get killed nevermind..... Cowards of their convictions.
To: Indy Pendance
They should definitely be considered traitors. The news report I heard on Fox, I believe, said they left because they weren't allowed to be human shields at the hospitals, etc. where they wanted to go, but Saddam wanted to send them to plants where they were building missles, etc. and they feared for their safety.. ROFL!!!!!!
