Mr Lindh joined the forces of a government that was not at war with the US at the time. furthermore, the US never officially declared war on the govt mr Lindh served. I suspect strongly that there is no evidence to suggest Mr Lindh ever engaged in acts of violence (or in planning of acts of violence) against american nationals, except perhaps in self-defence during that prison massacare.
So my feeling is that the trial of Mr Lindh is a politically motivated witch hunt.
Still, he is lucky that he is not being held in the Iso Cubes on Guantanamao.

Lindh's nemesis is John Ashcrift, the most right wing attorney general the US has had in decades. Ashcroft, a carefully-spoken man, would clearly like Lindh to swing for his unpatriotic treachery. Yet given the choice between an idealistic young Californian who learned perfect Arabic and went to mingle with people of another culture, and a spooky old puritan bigot like Ashcroft, I know which I prefer. I know which I consider the more advanced, and the more American. The US is a nation founded by dissidents whose consciences forbade them to collude in imperialism and bullying. People like Lindh.
