"2.He helped by using his technology knowledge to tap into military and/or private contractor communications.
9. Berg decides to finish his work for terrorists and declines safe passage."

Nick was working on a communications tower at the Abu Ghraib prison during the mortar attacks there. If, big IF, he was helping anyone on anything, it was as a spotter for the mortar teams attacking our prison.

And if, big IF, he was providing that sort of aid, then an easy explanation to why he turned down free transportation out of Iraq was that he needed to meet with certain people to get PAID for his services...payment perhaps coming in an unexpected form.

Whoa.
I need to digest this.

How hard would it be for him to install equipment that could intercept cell phone and other communications ? I assume he had the ability to provide much more data than a spotter on a pole.

According to Robert Moran, Knight Ridder --

Infante said he last saw Berg on April 8 in the hotel's Internet cafe and that Berg told him he was leaving the country because business had declined. Berg talked about taking a plane from Baghdad to Jordan, Infante said.

Duke, who drank beer with Berg the night before he left, said Berg told him he'd made a lot of money and was thinking about going sailing in Turkey. He said he thought Berg was planning to leave the country by land. "He was looking forward to going home," Duke said.

So which is it -- he had no money or he had made a lot?
