Which is the greater, most heinous crime:

Committing Treason? Or…

Committing a crime that requires the law of one's nation to place the government and citizens living in that nation of "believers in God" into the position of killers?

"Thou Shalt Not Kill" is a law of God and most of those living under those precepts accept killing as immoral and an affront to God and so, do not violate what they also accept as a basic tenet of humanity; many resisting even what can be viewed as an acceptable and even required response to invasion, personal danger, protection of life of self or others and other aspects that can be included upon investigation.

Nations all have the inherent right to make laws for their nation that have as their predicate the existing social norms being accepted and practiced by their citizens and the moral/intellectual/ethical development (or regression) of their society; and that society has every right to put in place punishments and penalties for violation of those laws.

The law for Treason grants Death as a suitable and equitable form of punishment for attempting to harm the traitor's home/family/neighbors/society-at-large by "siding with the enemy" - whomever or whatever society has deemed that/those enemies to be.

But what is the punishment for the damage done to "The People?

An attempted existence as a moral/ethical, rational/intellectual/reasoning, being, may be severely damaged by being forced to participate - however distant from actual proceedings - in the death of another human and should also be viewed as a "Crime Against Persons."

Such charge could be included within the proceeding for Treason but I feel it is important to acknowledge ALL the damage a TRAITOR creates and enables; and also eliminates any responsibility from society at large for what is legally about to be done; in their name.

This needs to include - among others - those such as no-name (and not deserving of capitals even using that identification) and papa bushy, who were/are going to be, likely suicided; their full crimes must be acknowledged so society can be absolved of blame.

This should likely also be added to all crimes for which the penalty may be death. Why should society be put in such a position without it being acknowledged for the potential damage to society.

Perhaps a suitable penalty could also be, upon proven grounds for arrest for Treason or another "death-sentence-worthy" crime…an immediate cancellation of ALL political rights; especially those requiring the injured party - society - to provide security, sustenance, medicine etc., to the criminal.
