Please forgive my ignorance, as I have never posted a question on a website before, and am unsure of proper form or etiquette, but i have looked extensively at the WOTFAQ site, and have not seen the question or the answer: how does an a'damovercome the Three Oaths when an Aes Sedai is captured and leashed?  They obviously have no more compuction about killing or harming those that do not attack, or are Darkfriends, or Shadowspawn.

We can't be sure, but I would assume that the adam'sforce is so powerful it simply overrides the three oaths.  

Also, an Aes Sedai'slife is certainly in danger when channeling for the Seanchan.  Why?  If a damane somehow managed to refuse every bit of a sul'dam'sill, and somehow managed to resist being "broken in", they'd probably be punished with death.  Thus, you could say that not doing what the Sul'damwants is life threatening in and of itself.
