    So if during the occupation of Afghanistan, I fought for the Taliban but only killed Afghan Army soldiers, I could return to the USA without any worries?

    Giving comfort to the enemy has a name, what is it again?

      US is not at war with Russia so it is not treason.

      Jeez, people in this thread are hysterical.

          If Russia wants to be at war with the US, they can issue a war declaration.

          They haven’t so far, and they know why.

          US is in a proxy war-- totally different to an actual war. Was the Soviet Union at war with the US when the former funded and trained North Vietnam during the Vietnam War?

              Of course people would say that. As much as I dislike Elon, he can’t be charged for treason because the US is not at war. The best that the US and allies could do is break contract with him or isolate him politically. But he’s rich and well connected so I doubt anything will happen to him.

                I wasn’t commenting on Elon this time, but on proxy wars. I’m aware he can’t be charged with treason, and that his money would get him out of any charges that might otherwise stick.
