I just read on the NBC message board that the BBC was reporting that Berg was actually killed in Iran and not Iraq.

Haven't heard that. The only Iran connection so far that I've heard is that US officials asked Berg if he ever travelled to Iran.

And it would be a hard trip to make from Iran back to Baghdad to drop off the body.

Berg also claimed, during his first trip to Iraq, that he was picked up by authorities who were concerned about Iranians crossing over. He was held overnight (as I remember) and released. This has always stuck with me because in other reports he is said to have looked like a Marine with short hair. Somehow that doesn't describe an Iranian to me.
