May 14, 2004 -- Nick Berg, the young American beheaded by terrorists in Iraq, had an earlier encounter with a Muslim fanatic - and inadvertently provided accused 9/11 al Qaeda operative Zacarias Moussaoui with his e-mail password. The bizarre twist was confirmed by the Justice Department and Berg's father. In what one Justice official described as a "coincidental" link, both the telecommunications whiz from West Chester, Pa., and the accused 9/11 conspirator were in Norman, Okla., in 2000.

>> Now what do we know about his father,,what does he do for a living? <<
I don't know the details of his trips to other 3rd World countries like Africa. I'm interesting in learning more about those myself.
However, his old man really intrigues me. I get this hinky feeling that this is a man with much to hide and still he shoots his mouth off constantly. I don't get that but I suspect he is arousing the suspicions of people all over the place. I think it won't be long before we get the lowdown on that company and the money situation of the family.
The one thing I picked up and can't recall where is that both Mr. and Mrs. Berg are career school teachers. That screams "danger" to me. Imagine how many Other People's Children they have been brainwashing for years.
The above is pure speculation on my part.
^^^^^
As I have said before, I hope our Fbi, etc are watching Ramsay Clark, Medea Benjamin, Brian Becker and their lieutenants 24/7.
There is no way that they have stopped their anti-American activities. I have always thought they would be interacting with Al-Queda to destroy our country.
And exactly how does the dad know this? If you're in college and you let someone use your computer on a bus, do you write home about it? Do you call up dad and tell him --- 'hey --- I just gave out my password again'?
Bump!
The dad is shooting off his mouth too much ---- making weird stories to justify things a parent wouldn't normally know about an adult child. If this happened to a normal parent's kid, they wouldn't automatically claim they knew how a terrorist obtained a password from him, they'd want it all investigated. The dad is covering up it looks like.
Bump!
But this Nick guy was supposedly one of the more savvy types who aren't as quick to do that --- but it's true a lot of people give out passwords easily. The thing is they wouldn't likely tell their dad so how would he know? I could see if 20 people claimed Nick handed them his password so they could use his e-mail account --- but isn't it just the dad making that claim?
Since this was the subject of an BI investigation in 2002(?), I would assume that the dad would know what Nick told the FBI . . .
There was that little thing about being questioned by the FBI after 9-11.
Still --- wouldn't you --- if you were Michael --- now become more suspicious of the terrorist connection, and maybe question a little more what type of contact they really might have had? If it were me, I'd be wanting a thorough investigation --- I wouldn't pass it off as mere coincidence, and I'd want to know if somehow a terrorist group had befriended and was using my kid.
Some people also come home from Africa emaciated from serious intestinal infestations.
I believe that Nick Berg inadvertently gave his e:mail account to a terrorist with ties to 9/11. I also believe that one day, O.J. will find the real killers. Oh, and I believe in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny too.
My take on the father is contrarian. I think he is guilty as heck and griefstricken. Thus he blames Bush et al. He is an antiwar person, probably now he sees who and what the enemy is and feels dreadful he saw the same enemy is such silly inocuous terms as he did in the past. One look at that video and one knows these people are hellish. And imagine if you had a talented apparently sweet son who thought he was doing good {if that is the case and if his father believed that} and to know that son is murdered. You might be screaming with grief and underlying guilt for your very ideas that might have rubbed off on that boy. At heart the peaceniks are profoundly naive about the enemy,,they think flowers and love will tame them, and understanding and kindness. They know nothing of the people who we are fighting.
You got that right! it is looking more like poor Nick was
"silenced" for something he knew rather than executed for being a "KAFIR"
I agree....he didn't look the least bit scared. I was looking for the fear....there was NONE.
I have military family members in Iraq and Afghanistan, both do instant messages every couple of days; both were IMing a couple of days ago.
Yeah, but the FBI visit, you might mention to dad in passing . :-)
I've dealt w/ many "smart" students and faculty who would do really stupid things from a network administrators point of view. IMHO, I would need more proof that the kid was a spy for anyone than the e-mail account.
As far as the father goes, my heart goes out to anyone who has lost a child, but I think the father needs his mouth washed out w/ soap. I cannot stand the liberal tendency not to blame the true guilty party.
He operated near the prison where all of these so called pictures came from. What a coincidence....Who is notorious for removing links permanently.....
The pieces are right in front of us. All we have to do is put them together....
I noticed the exact same thing. It really caught me off guard. I didn't know what to make of it before, but now I think I do.
He's tied to George Soros? I haven't heard that one.
