Hmmmmmm

[Fitzcarraldo]

Perhaps Nick was on his own "secret mission" to make peace with Al Queda and ended up in a bad trap.

[ambrose]

Really strange... X-Files?

If he was working with them, why would they kill him?

[tkathy]

Could just be coincidence. Or something more.

[Fitzcarraldo]

Did the Iraqi Police tip off Al Queda? To what extent is AQ infiltrating Iraqi institutions?

[ambrose]

and why would there be any al-Queda in Iraq anyway? The Democrats have assured us that Iraq is totally unconnected to the War on Terror/9-11..

[rageaholic]

Berg's mistake was trusting moslems.

[AngieGOP]

"If he was working with they, why would they kill him?

They killed him because they felt like. No reason necessary, just to be cruel and inhuman.

Its difficult seeing an average American running off to Iraq on their own...with no introduction...no connections...etc. I think Nick had a connection...and it wasn't your friendly neighborhood type...it was a Muslim group who he thought he could trust. Nick probably found out it just was not the kind of group to hand out with on a Saturday afternoon...but it was too late.

In the interview from outside his home in West Chester, Pennsylvania, a seething Michael Berg also said his 26-year-old son, a civilian contractor, probably would have felt positive, even about his executioners, until the last minute.

"I am sure that he only saw the good in his captors until the last second of his life," Berg said. "They did not know what they were doing. They killed their best friend."

But CBS News National Security Correspondent David Martin reports on what is turning into a bizarre mystery with a connection to 9/11.

U.S. officials say the FBI questioned Berg in 2002 after a computer password Berg used in college turned up in the possession of Zaccarias Moussaoui, the al Qaeda operative arrested shortly before 9/11 for his suspicious activity at a flight school in Minnesota.
