Should Federal Officials be tried for Treason for aiding Al Qaeda?

Should federal officials be tried for treason?

Article III, Section 3, United States Constitution:
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.

The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason.

Here is the punishment Congress has prescribed for treason:

18 USC § 2381 - Treason

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death.

It's no secret that if you or I aided and abetted Al Qaeda, that we'd be hit with a drone strike. Why are the Federal politicians permitted to engage in treason?

It's no secret that if you or I were even remotely suspected of aiding and abetting Al Qaeda, we'd be kidnapped under the NDAA and sent to Gitmo.

There is nothing "unclear" about treason. The Constitution gives it one very simple definition, that cannot be changed nor appended nor abolished.

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.

That's it.

Should you and the other 'Tokyo Roses' be charged with treason? Or are you too stupid to understand how your hate for our government provides aid and comfort to those who want to do our people harm?

Then following the nutjob logic of many here a President seeking othet than unconditional surrender of an enemy is giving aid and comfort to that enemy. :cuckoo:

So the same crowd that used to attack the President for using drones to kill al qaeda is now attacking the President for not killing al qaeda?

Liar.

Obama was never attacked. Obama was denigrated, ridiculed, and reviled for murdering American citizens.

Currently we are denigrating, ridiculing, and reviling him for aiding and abbe-ting Al Qaeda terrorists. Which incidentally was the same thing he murdered the American citizens for. Apparently, whatever Obama does is legal and defended by people like you.

2nd Amendment is asking who is for executing administration officials for such-n such...., not what you claim.

Targeting top al Qaeda operatives is a big plus and quite legal under US law. Countless lives here on US soil were likely saved that day. Rebel groups in Syria that claim an alliance with al Qaeda inadvertently obtaining arms and US weapons because they're allied with Rebel forces the Administration backs, not aiding and abetting by any stretch of the imagination. One has to pole vault beyond reason to get there.

I oppose intervention. But that doesn't mean I think what they are doing is treason.

I see so merely being a priest of a terrorist is enough to get you murdered by the president. And that is good and legal. Additionally, arming, training, and providing other logistical aid for destroying sovereign nations via violent acts is a good thing. Got it. When the president does it, it's a good thing, when a foreign leader of another nation does it, that's a bad thing. Got it. So it's a heroic act if we do it, with the same terrorists, and a vile despicable act when other people do it to us with the exact same terrorists. Makes perfect sense.

Killing al Qaeda operatives who seek to kill Americans anywhere in the world is something I agree with. Waging a proxy war is not and act of treason. Interventionism I oppose in general because it leads to groups like al Qaeda forming to kill us. But then where is the profit in that?

Define in detail "treason" or you'll get no vote from me. My opinion=/=fact when determining things like this.

I don't heave to define treason, it's already defined in the Constitution, and is confined to a single definition.

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.

The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason.

That's it, that's its definition, plain as day.
