To the Editor:
   The FBI-led counterterrorism team that examined Major Hasan's contact with al-Awlaki was probably right to find that the conversations were protected by the first amendment's guarantees of freedom of speech, freedom of assembly and freedom of religion. The more interesting case was at the other end of those conversations. Al-Awlaki is an American citizen who has attached himself to our enemies. Our constitution calls that "treason". Perhaps someone with jurisdiction in Yemen should have been notified.
