It was in the Norman Transcript yesterday that he was offered a flight out of Baghdad but didn't want to drive down the road that goes to the airport because it was too dangerous. Made no sense to me!

I had read in another place that he had also been offered transportation to the airport.

Senseless. If he wanted to get out of Iraq, the safest way would have been to accept the US government offer. To drive across the whole country of Iraq on his own is psychotic - and to claim that it's safer? It had to have been an excuse for some other reason. Had to have been.

I saw that posted yesterday, and it didn't make any sense to me either. Here's how to make some sense out of it: it was too dangerous for Nick Berg to be seen by 'certain people' being safely escorted to the airport by the US military. Apparently Nick's idea of dangerous, is different from ours.

Time to pick up some of that extra heavy duty foil that one uses on a bbq grill.
