I just think that is how the issue may ultimately be resolved (but only time will tell).
There is no way Bush could let him be executed for conversion to Christianity (that would be bad optics for Bush in the U.S.), but it may be difficult to put pressure on the current Afghanistan government to ignore the conversion (that would be bad optics for Bush/Karzai in Afghanistan). The local population would probably see it as "Christian armies came into Afghanistan and now they are insisting on Christian conversions".
It could prove to be quite a quandary, if the fellow involved is very committed to his position, as you say he is.
