Just On the Other Side

So a brave conscientious objector and anti-war Moslem American soldier decided he had no conscience problem with waging war on America by plotting to attack Ford Hood troops.

As Instapundit often noted during the Iraq War protests, sometimes the anti-war people aren't so much pacifists or against the particular war as they are really just on the other side of the war cheerleading for our defeat.

I also have to ask why a Moslem soldier in the American Army would have a conscience problem in waging war in either Iraq or Afghanistan where we defend Moslems and fight at the side of Moslems against jihadis. Oh yeah, I guess it is because we defend Moslems at the side of other Moslems from people just like that arrested soldier.

Nail this guy (assuming, as my lawyer advises that I mention, if he is truly found guilty of what he is accused of plotting). If plotting to kill troops and civilians on an American military base isn't treason, what is?
