..if that is true how ominious is it that he worked for the Republican Convention?

Where on earth did you hear/see that!?

Nicholas Berg: A life of adventure

He saw his trip to Iraq, his father said, as an adventure, but one that fit into his ideology. He was a war supporter and backed the Bush administration.He helped set up electronics equipment at the Republican National Convention in Philadelphia in 2000.

Thanks, I had missed that fact in all of my reading.

"He was a war supporter and backed the Bush administration."

If this is true, why would his father be so quick to dishonor the memory of his son?

Also, if this is true, isn't it also possible that he really was a spy?

It has been suggested he was setting up spy equipment on towers in Iraq. If true, what's to say he wasn't doing the same at the 2000 Republican Convention?

Then again it could have been just another well paid job so who cares about party affiliation and politics? Some contracters don't and just like to work and make money.

Personally I think the younger Berg was playing a dangerously ametuer game of "Jethro Bodine - Double Ought Spy."
