I suspect it's most likely both the reasons you state. To the rest of his family Abdurahman is seen as a traitor; he turned his back on their beloved, filthy jihad. From the pronouncements of the imam at the Khadr family's mosque, they view him through the same lens; as a traitor who turned against Al-Qaeda's agenda of global Wahhabi domination. It could also be because he exposed the family's ties to OBL and made some in the Islamic community look like the hypocrites they are.
