We knew it wouldn't take long for the barbaric animals in their long robes and headscarves to use the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse as an excuse to lash out at an innocent American.
Nick Berg was in Iraq to help rebuild the country, but the 26-year-old contractor from Philadelphia ended up being butchered by the masked cowards owing allegiance to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi - a disciple of Osama bin Laden. Nobody should be surprised that this slime posted the videotaped decapitation of Berg on their website.
However, make no mistake - the execution of this American civilian was in no way revenge for the humiliation of the Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib. Berg's executioners were simply waiting for a convenient moment to capture worldwide attention. They have no more concern over how the Iraqi prisoners were treated than they have for Berg's family.
"God is great," Berg's killers barked after the murder. Captured on videotape, the episode will no doubt be hailed by Islamic extremists all over the world as a great victory - the grisly slaying of a defenseless civilian. And while the Berg decapitation will show the Islamic terrorists at their own perceived best, the photos and videos out of Abu Ghraib will continue to show America at its perceived worst.
That's right! Masked cowards (they might as well belong to the Ku Klux Klan) murdering an unarmed civilian on camera are a reason for Islamic extremists to celebrate. Photos showing a naked Iraqi prisoner with lady's underpants over his head are a reason for Americans to despair.
As horrible as Berg's murder is, it will serve to bolster the Bush administration, by reminding the world of the moral differences between the Islamist killers who invoke the name of God while carrying out their satanic actions and the Bush White House that is seeking to exterminate these insects.
But as if facing the Bush war machine isn't imposing enough for al-Zarqawi and his henchmen, imagine what they'll have to confront when their miserable time is up on this earth, when they have to face up to God. Nick Berg's killers are right about one thing. God is great. He's also just.

Satanic? Insects? Is this really from CBS? When did they drop their multiculturalist moral relativism? Will he get fired for using non-PC language?
That was the same impression I had.
The sadists say Berg was killed because of the US mistreatment of Iraqi prisoners.
Was Daniel Pearl also killed because prisoners were mistreated?
No.
Sadists fabricate excuses for killing. Any sane person knows the sadists' excuses are lies.
If anyone wants to view the full reality of this situation, please FReep-mail me. I have a copy. Freaking barbarians.
Allah FUBAR!....or something like that.

Some will never awaken to the existance of evil, they will hide.
Unsubstantiated conclusion with no supporting facts.
There is more to Nick Berg than this writer has looked into.
Nick Berg traveled to Iraq sometime in December, and hung around til some time in February, and then left. He went to Iraq unvetted, and did not have a job.
Nick Berg is a telecommunications worker, and ostensibly was looking to freelance work in Iraq. He never found any.
Nick Berg has twice before gone to war torn or ravaged countries in Africa, also as a freelancer.
Nick Berg returned to Iraq, and supposedly looked for work again. He never did find any, and according to his parents, 'went traveling'.
In April he was picked up by coalition authorities and was questioned by among others, the FBI for two weeks. Uncertain as to who Nick Berg really was, the FBI paid a visit to Berg's parents stateside.
Nick Berg was released, and immediatly dropped off the radar again. According to his parents, he was trying to get home.
Today Nick Berg turned up on video, had his genitals burned, his head chopped off and his body dumped on a bridge.
There is much more to this story than meets the eye, and both the right and left spin on this will be false.
He is not a poor contractor trying to rebuild Iraq who got swept up in the wake of the prison scandal fallout...nor is he a greedy American war profiteer whose death was a justifiable retaliation for 'alleged' abuse at the prison.
Dilligent reporters with feet on the ground in Iraq could answer the question: Who was Nick Berg, and Why was he in Iraq?
Don't hold your breath sports fans.
