Berg's father lays his son's death directly at the feet of the President and his policies...Is this an example of leftist clear thinking..a left wing that exists in all our media? I am deeply saddened by his son's murder but this father is disgraceful.

Same here- whatever happened to loyal opposition, or honorable opponents? The seem to have vanished with the Clinton Nineties. The Father didn't lose a second spinning this tragedy into a "I hate Boosh! And you should, too!" moment. It is utterly shameless exploitation, for cheap advantage in the political arena. It baffles me.

No kidding! Nick Berg might still be alive if his father had not filed suit to get him released by the FBI and the Iraqi police. He was being detained because a background check showed that he had used an internet password that was also used by Zacharias Moussaui. The investigation concluded that there was no link but that was why he was being detained.
When the father filed suit to have him released, he was let go the NEXT day, after which he was kidnapped and killed.
The father needs to examine his own actions when considering who is to blame for his son being in danger.
Nick Berg was SAFE as long as he was detained. And they had probable cause to detain him. Then they warned him to leave the country, offering to provide his flight...he refused. The government did it's job.

No one should be murdered in this way , but there is more to this story IMO.

I can not believe it was sheer coincidence that the terrorist had his phone number and look where he was..

The father is a peace activist that denounced the war.

I just have a guess.
The government had some info on him, but nothing firm.

The terrorists see him being released from US custody and suspect a double agent..

Off with his head

The father of Nick Berg is just as disgraceful as the 9/11 families who took the public's money and then prostituted that death for political gain as well.
