While it would be trite to excuse Gadahn’s treason as ingratitude towards the country that raised and protected him under a system of freedom’s and protections he would destroy, it is indeed on component of this traitor’s psyche. Like John Walker Lindh,  Gadahn aparently has a defect in his ability to reason that his treason is most likely a result of his own defeciencies and fear of manhood.  Another words he is a spoiled brat who no doubt still harbors adolescent anger, for whatever strtange reasons, towards a country he should have been gratful to have grown up in. Now the story….

It is alleged though not confirmed that American-born spokesman for al-Qaida has been arrested by Pakistani intelligence officers in the southern city of Karachi, two officers and a government official said Sunday, the same day Adam Gadahn appeared in a video urging U.S. Muslims to attack their own country. The arrest of Gadahn is a major victory in the U.S.-led battle against al-Qaida and will be taken as a sign that Pakistan is cooperating more fully with Washington. It follows the recent detentions of several Afghan Taliban commanders in Karachi.

Gadahn – who has often appeared in al-Qaidavideos – was arrested in the sprawling southern metropolis in recent days, two officers who took part in the operation said. A senior government official also confirmed the arrest. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information.

Gadahn grew up on a goat farm in Riverside County, California, and converted to Islam at a mosque in nearby Orange County. He moved to Pakistan in 1998, according to the FBI, and is said to have attended an al-Qaida training camp six years later, serving as a translator and consultant for the group. He has been wanted by the FBI since 2004, and there is a $1 million reward for information leading to his arrest or conviction….A U.S. court charged Gadahnwith treason in 2006, making him the first American to face such a charge in more than 50 years. He could face the death penalty if convicted. He was also charged with two counts of providing material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/07/AR2010030701517.html?hpid=topnews

It does not take a lower than average I.Q. to figure out who threw down Gahadn. The two Taliban commanders captured by the Pakistanis, coincidentally prior to Gadahn’s capture, were not subject to the politically correct Eric Holder’s rules of interrogation. The question now is Eric Holder himself and how he will handle this case of this murderous traitor.

Obama and his A.G. Holder have proven themselves “user friendly” by their granting constitutional privileges to terrorists, something they do not now have to do because Gdahan is an American citizen. The real question is, will they try him for treason and enforce the death penalty or will we see more of the same coddling for another terrorist murderer. Given Obama and Holder’s sentiments I would venture Gadahn will be given a cell and three squares a day along with free medical care for the rest of his life.

That of course is my personal assumption. But given the Obama administrations past actions that favour terrorists rights, I may be right on the mark. I hope I’m wrong.  Just my opinion.
