Has anyone come up with an explanation for the orange jumpsuit? The first time that I saw the video, before I ever questioned anything about this story, I thought that that did not ring true. I still think that it's a sign that something is not genuine about the event, but for the life of me I can't understand why the terrorists would have put Berg in an orange jumpsuit.

Could it be that they told Berg that they were going to make a fake video of how he was abused while being held by the US/Iraqi forces?

[MizSterious]

I did read that he had a backpack. Thanks for that.

[Grampa Dave]

That is a great tag line.

We need to use a lot of these tag lines re the Pro Islamofascist Moore.

"Could it be that they told Berg that they were going to make a fake video of how he was abused while being held by the US/Iraqi forces?"

That's the first explanation for the orange jumpsuit I've read that makes sense. It would also explain the calm demeanor.

Berg also had a computer w/a data base of some 60 findings on towers in Iraq. What happened to it?

Reading this post, something just came to my mind regarding Nick's calmness. It has been speculated that this is becaues he was drugged.

Is his body available for a forensic study of such questions? Was this checked into?

Fatboy should be subpoenaed to tell what he knows.

They left in a huff for another site, where they spend most of their time copying our posts and making fun of us and gripiing about how things were better in the good old days.

Berg whose father was SUING THE US GOVERNMENT was just like his old man and doing his old man's business in Iraq til it was decided that he really would serve a better purpose.

Michael Moore, who LOVES free speech - this is SO TELLING - why on earth wouldn't he want the Nick Berg interview in his movie? WHY INDEED.

[Carolinamom]

Berg also had his computer w/data base on findings about some 60 Iraqi towers. Where is it now? It was not mentioned in the belongings recovered.

[Sacajaweau]

Could be!! And they're saying that one of the big Muslim cheeses is in that video...so they weren't going to let him go.

[WhiteGuy]

Ok,

How about this, (Reynolds Wrap Hat on)

Moore is "dealing" with Berg's family, for the rights of the footage that will be expanded into it's own "movie".

Furthermore, Berg was killed to send a message to Moore / the left about not releasing the movie in the US.

Likewise, a deal was made with Disney to halt their planned distribution.

It was the Moore/Berg connection that actually got the boy killed.

So do I watch too much late night TV or what?

[PhiKapMom]

I have been having that happen more and more -- the Freepers knows me and I know I have talked to them before but don't recognize the screen name. Creepy sometimes. Why not put the other screen name in the tagline?

[AFPhys]

I just read #337.

Wondering about the source, since it is the first interview other than with the father that mentions Bush support.

Like many here, it mutes that aspect a bit ... but verify source is the first thing now... and question as to whether it might have been staged a bit, as SWasp warns.

Any murder is subject to an autopsy. (But I don't know if a relative can have it overruled.)

[PhiKapMom]

This is getting more bizarre all the time. Two and two definitely do not add up!

[Howlin]

Ha!
