To: Mr. Conor
"I just don't see how a group of citizens giving medical supplies to Iraqi doctors is treason. Sorry."

You forgot to mention two words here, that is "enemy" Iraqi doctors, the ones treating those Iraqi's fighting us, not the ones supporting us, and it is "American" citizens giving to those battling against American forces.

U.S. Constitution Article III Section 3
Treason against the United States, shall consist only of levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.

Merriam-Webster
Treason - The offense of attempting by overt acts to overthrow the government of the state to which the defender owes allegiance or to kill or personally injure the sovereign or the sovereign's family.
The betrayal of a trust.
LEVY- to carry on, to wage war
Wage - To be in the process of occurring
Adherence - To give support or maintain loyalty

To Mr.Conor, i just cannot see how this is not TREASON. Sorry.
HANG EM HIGH !
