My take is a little different.I like your take. I've smelled Moore in this from the beginning. I just haven't connected all the dots.

This revelation and Moore's ego don't match. There's someone in his camp dealing with guilt in a major way.From the article:
Word of the footage reached Salon through a source unaffiliated with Moore or his film "Fahrenheit 9/11,"

Earlier today I read that Michael Moore revealed that he had footage of Nick Berg that he was just sharing with the family. That was before I ever heard anything about this Salon article; but was that earlier story Michael Moore's response to being found out by Salon?I think I know what article you are talking about, and from this Salon piece, evidently Moore's statement was indeed given due to Salon's inquiry into the matter. From the article:
In a statement widely circulated by Moore's people after an initial request for comment by Salon, Moore said, "We have an interview with Nick Berg. It was approximately 20 minutes long. We are not releasing it to the media. It is not in the film. We are dealing privately with the family." Moore's camp declined to comment further on any aspect of the interview.

Why would a patriotic American allow Moore to film him?
How would Moore know where to find a patriotic American?
To me, this further points to Berg being tied in with the radical left.
(What patriot associates with Moore?)

Thanks for posting that article. That's the first and ONLY corroboration of young Berg's feelings toward our efforts in Iraq that I have seen. His father's feverish claims to that effect offered up so quickly and vociferously made me strongly suspicious. Usually, son's try hard for a father's approval, but not always. Sometimes they rebel against a father's views and head in the opposite direction!
My suspicions are now somewhat muted, but not quite gone. Being a Ham Radio Operator myself, that is acrophobic about climbing my own tower, these two must have developed quite a rapor during their short relationship as Employer/Employee. However, one could still be misunderstood, or mislead.

I'm still not quite "All aboard" the conspiracy train, but I'm certainly on the "Grand Jury Investigation" train as of now.

Was NB a "setup" hostage, like the Japanese hostages turned out to be?

The information I recall as verified is that his head was underneath his body. The problem is there was some confused reporting going on, and I'm not certain that is the case. Both were reported at times.

You are onto something. As far as I recall, there was never really any plausible explanation for Berg being picked up. With his history (and dad's) here in the U.S., our gov. was checking up on his activities in Iraq.

"But his father also stated emphatically that his son was the best friends the terrorists had."
Yes, that was an odd turn of phrase.......daddy slipped up.

Lets see how this a hole likes it....

Some other dots to connect--where were his tools? Maybe the articles just neglected to mention the tools along with the prayer shawl and the Koran, but if it turns out he was traveling without tools, how could he build or repair communications towers?

I won't be happy until Moore is brought up on treason charges. Unfortunately, there's no such thing anymore.

I'm guessing he was trying to make underground contacts. Maybe he was "innocently" trying to sell radio equipment to the political opposition. That's what Prometheus Radio does. At any rate, whether he was a spy or a fool, he was dangerous to the insurgents. He might have been naive enough not to know.

Was Berg "bugging" for Moore??
I don't understand Berg saying that he's going to Turkey. If you just got "released", you'd probably want to "be wise" and head home.
Berg, a Patriot? Daddy says yes but an interview with Moore says "NO" and "working with the family" says no.
Wonder how much Moore is paying the Berg family for their anti-Bush sentiments. We never heard of them before..
BUT MOORE DID????
