Interesting. You know, I'm not in favor of targetting dissidents, but:

We call them "opposition leaders," like it's just the political party that's not in power. If, say, a bunch of rabid, gun-toting guys in Iowa decided to plan to overthrow the US government, and they got, say, Canada, to arm and train them, and were holding international conferences on what they were gonna do...

... wouldn't we call them "traitors?"

And what would the US do in a similar situation?
