Sorry, no can do. I'm not going to contact CBS and go against the wishes of the victim's family, who didn't want the world to see it in the first place. CBS is biased, thats a given, but there is a simple thing called respect, and I wish to respect the wishes of Nick Berg's family by not allowing their son to be used as some TV spectacle. This goes beyond the bounds of decency in and of itself. Seeing this video serves no purpose. Frankly, I saw the video online, and I can say without a doubt, this is the first thing that frightened the living **** outta me.

Here it is after two in the morning here on the East Coast and no sleep for me. Anybody who wants to go to Iraq and do contract work better think twice.

I can understand your wanting to honor the family's wishes of not playing the video, but you watched the video online. I could understand your position better if you had not watched it at all; but having done so yourself, that argument doesn't compute.

And many thousands (millions?) have also watched it online as well. So the family's wishes have already been disregarded, haven't they?

That said, I watched it; it is gruesome and violent and shows the savagery and pure evil of Mr. Berg's captors - and what evil we are faced with in our war with terrorists. Finally, our military and our leaders all need our prayers, as does the family of Mr. Berg, regardless of his parents' political views.
