How many of you seen this on the news or the paper??? Islamic militants beheaded an American who was seeking work in Iraq. They filmed it, and its been all over the internet. They said it was in retaliation for the mistreatment of Iraqi detainees at the Abu Ghraib prison. The man was identified as Nick Berg.....he was 26 and from the Philly area. Im really getting sick of picking up the paper everyday and reading about more and more troops and Americans dieing over there. I couldn't even eat lunch today after reading this . The United States has offered $10 million for imformation leading to the capture or killing of Ahmad Fadhill al Khalayleh....the man that killed Berg. Im to the point where im about to go over there and kill this myself......whos down with me???......I know vlad has my back.
oh and on a personal note: screw bush :whip: :whip: :whip: |

| my feeling is that eventually these problems will all solve themselves... when every country turns against the US and invades. |

Brian: I agree with you brother. I believe this country is in terrible mess. I did see the uncut video from a site which I am not going to talk about. It seems like Muslims love to do throat cut videos for propaganda. If you remember what happened to Daniel Pearl in 2002, and how he died. You know exactly what I am talking about. The truth is, we are the original killers. If we didn't go to war with Iraq, non of this you seen on TV will be happening. If this was Clinton, he would of talk to Sadam Hussian. In fact, he almost made a stable friendship with Iran. Further more, Clinton was going to build a new building for North Korea to ease the nuclear power over there.

There was no link between Saddam and Al Qaeda, that was a lie:

In New York, but I don't know about some of the other states.
I hope Stern works his magic and people pass on Nader.
On the plus side though, Bush didn't win the first time, and several more million people voted for the liberal candidates. |

The US government actually held Berg for days prior to his killing without trial or attorney.
Some have speculated there is some kind of conspiracy to take the heat off the prison abuse scandal, but I'm not sure if I believe that or not.
Family of Executed American Angry with U.S. Govt.
Wednesday May 12, 2004
By Jon Hurdle
PHILADELPHIA (Reuters)
Family and friends of the American civilian executed by Islamic militants are angry about U.S. government denials that their son was ever in U.S. custody in Iraq, a family spokesman said on Wednesday.
Neighbor Bruce Hauser, who has acted as a family spokesman, said, "The community feels that if the government had Nick Berg in their control they should have sought to release Berg back to his home country."
"I have to believe that the American government had him in their custody. The Bergs knew that Nick was in their custody and the Bergs wanted the government to release him so he could come home," Hauser said.

FBI Saw Berg During Iraq Police Detention

Berg Interviewed By FBI In Iraq
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - The FBI saw Nick Berg, the American civilian beheaded in Iraq, three times while he was being detained by Iraqi police, the U.S.-led occupation authority said Wednesday.
An Islamist Web site Tuesday carried a video clip of Berg's beheading, with a statement saying a group linked to al Qaeda carried it out in revenge for the abuse of Iraqis by U.S. troops.
Dan Senor, spokesman for the Coalition Provisional Authority in Baghdad, said Berg had not been in U.S. custody before or after his arrest by Iraqi police on March 24. "My understanding is that they suspected that he was engaged in suspicious activity," Senor told a news conference. "U.S. authorities were notified, the FBI visited with Mr. Berg when he was in Iraqi police detention and determined that he was not involved in any criminal or terrorist activities," Senor said. "They had contact with him on three occasions."
Brigadier-General Mark Kimmitt, the U.S. military spokesman in Iraq, said U.S. military police had seen Berg during his detention to make sure he was being fed and treated properly.
