Obviously the issue of "treason" is open to abuse, but this case is pretty clear cut.

All that being said, Omar was a child when all of this went down, so it's not necessarily his fault. I'd be all for letting him out of prison and throwing his mother in.
Yes. These "citizens of convenience" RGMG. Our country is being used in these cases... for many reasons.... as a safe place to flee to if the country you live in goes to s***, free and advanced health care, a place you can return to to make $$$ to support your life style in your primary residence in another country, a place you can raise $$$ to support various causes (legal or illegal), etc, etc.

These people have absolutely no emotional ties or loyalty to our great country. They're users who have misrepresented themselves.
