FLIP:

Britain is considering charging Islamist clerics with treason if they incite violence or praise suicide attacks as part of a security crackdown after last month's London bombings, a government official said on Monday....

FLOP:

But legal experts said treason was not the best approach and Blair's office played down talk of its use....

AND:

Opposition Liberal Democrat Lord Carlile, an independent reviewer of anti-terrorism laws, said treason charges were neither sensible nor practical....

"I don't think there's a lawyer alive and working who's ever appeared in any part of a treason case and I think we should tread in that historic territory very carefully," said Carlile.

He said other existing charges, including solicitation to murder and incitement to murder, would be more appropriate.

I agree. Trying to destroy a country is merely an act of MURDER.
