Nick Berg, a small telecommunications business owner, spoke to his parents on March 24 and told them he would return home on March 30. But Berg was detained by Iraqi police at a checkpoint in Mosul on March 24. He was turned over to U.S. officials and detained for 13 days.
So what was this all about? Why was he detained? Was this man an independent contractor?

Probably not, but for all we know he may have been CIA. It is odd that he was going to very chaotic places to help rebuild communications. Maybe he was a truly idealistic young man.

"Was this man an independent contractor?"That is the way I understand it. He took it upon himself to go over there and do what he could in helping to rebuild.
I don't blame the Military at all for questioning who he was and what his purpose over there was.
