U.S. Army soldier planned ‘jihadi attack’

The U.S. Department of Justice says the Army private being accused of giving classified information to a foreign white supremacy group was planning a “deadly ambush” on his unit.
On Monday, Ethan Melzer, 22, of Louisville, Kentucky, was indicted for allegedly planning an attack on his U.S. Army unit by sending sensitive details about the unit — including information about its location, movements, and security – to members of the Order of the Nine Angles (O9A), an occult-based neo-Nazi and white supremacist group. Melzer is charged with conspiring and attempting to murder U.S. nationals, military service members, providing material support to terrorists, and conspiring to murder and maim in a foreign country.

Give each member of his unit 5 minutes alone in a room with him.

In conjunction with the neo nazi grouo he also planned it with Al Queda.
It’s a crazy story

Does this qualify as treason?

This is what we have the death penalty for.

Well, the Islamist and Nazis have always had close ties.

Currently, under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, 14 offenses are punishable by death. Under the following sections of the UCMJ, the death penalty can be imposed at any time:
94 – Mutiny or sedition
99 – Misbehavior before the enemy
100 – Subordinate compelling surrender
101 – Improper use of countersign
102 – Forcing a safeguard
104 – Aiding the enemy
106a – Espionage
110 – Improper hazarding of vessel
118 – Murder
120 – Rape
Dude probably can't get the death penalty for attempted sedition/mutiny. Too bad, he deserves it.

I'll wait until the evidence comes out to judge this. I have zero faith in the DOJ or FBI and it wouldn't surprise me if this entire event was manufactured to further perpetuate the "white nationalist" threat.
