I have to believe he wanted to do something of a "suicide by enemy fire." No way he was up for the kind of detainment and "enhanced interrogation" they're gonna put him through.

I have to wonder if they might actually decide to keep him. Somebody has to play the bad guy in their propaganda films, and the Korean war leftovers they have used are getting really old.

They will either turn him into a propaganda showpiece (eg everything the west says about this paradise is a lie) or he will be imprisoned until he dies to some brutal shit like untreated kidney stones.
