I'm not American and I agree that he is a traitor. Once he was fighting with the Talibans, he claimed that he was a Taliban. Fine, he made his choice, I don't have a problem with that. Up to now, he's only a Taliban. However, once he's captured, he now claims the mercy of his captors because he's an American. Sorry, you can't be both. You're either a Taliban or an American. His latest claim (to be an American) puts him in a position were he was fighting other Americans against American interets... therefore, he's a traitor and should be treated as such. I feel sorry for his parents, but he made his choice. He would have been treated as a Taliban if he didn't claim he was American!
