I wonder what he has to say about the Clinton adm. giving Halliburton contracts in the 90's.!!
Does any one know what date the ANSWER petition was... Because the company got signed up for a CAGE code 6/2002... you need a CAGE Codes to do biz with the DOD.... odd timeing to start protesting the war and look for biz with the DOD
Is there any info as to whether Nick had a camera w/him?
Sure, there's some media-grabbing footage - apparently shot by one of the camera crews Moore claims to have smuggled in with embedded troops - of American soldiers laughing as they place hoods over Iraqi prisoners, and one GI touching a detainee's genitals through a blanket.
He's showing footage of prisoners. Wonder where they were being held?
All hands on deck, Freeper Howlin Needs YOU!!
Follow the link I just posted. I think her son died in Vietnam.
Howlin needs all your info on the Berg/Moussoui/Atta ? bus stuff links and info. and anything else that went on with Berg in OK. that you have.
This theme would fit in with the theory some have suggested here that Moore wanted to film/document a Nick Berg who made a miraculous metamorphasis from being pro-war/pro-Bush to anti-war/anti-Bush after spending time in Iraq.
Moore isn't saying.
From the article:
It was not clear from Moore's statement whether footage from the interview with Berg had ever been included in early cuts of "Fahrenheit 9/11."
Also, could Michael Moore possibly have any connections with the "Prometheus Radio Project"? I wonder if that may be the link.
For those who don't know, the Prometheus Project is a left-wing project to establish "guerrilla radio" in third-world countries. It's located in the same town in PA as Berg's Prometheus Methods company, and there was some indication that Nick Berg's aunt or even possibly mother may have been involved in it.
**Blink**
Don't forget to ping Howlin with that info.
That's not the impression I got from your post and from Nita's.
Oscar-winning director Michael Moore has screened at Cannes what he claims is the first film footage of US soldiers abusing Iraqi prisoners.
It appears in his new documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11 which also explores alleged connections between the Bush and Bin Laden families.
The abuse "occurred in the field - outside the prison walls", Moore told the film festival.

Soldiers in Moore's film were shown outdoors ridiculing a man covered in a blanket on the ground, calling him "Ali Baba".
"It was an older man who was actually drunk, and it was early in the morning, and he was lying on the ground on a stretcher with a blanket over him," Moore said.
The director's movie has been the talk of the festival
"The footage was shot in Samarra in December 2003, he told BBC News Online, but did not reply when asked which military division was involved.
He said it was "disgraceful" that it took him, using stringers and freelance camera crews in Iraq, to bring such footage to the public.
At the risk of having my words posted ad nauseum over the entire internet, that's it?
One old drunk? Is that the best he can do? How do they even know he was a prisoner?
But when she tries to go to the White House to express her antiwar feelings, Moore ends up delivering a pallid echo of the high point of "Columbine," where victims of that high school massacre descend on Kmart headquarters to demand that the chain stop selling ammunition. By far the best sequence features Lila Lipscomb, a woman from Moore's hometown of Flint, Mich., who lost her Marine son in Vietnam.
Could you please post the link?
This gets more and more bizarre.
What are the possibilities, coincidence wise, that Nick Berg, Michael Moore. Moussauoui, Zarkawi and the photos at Abu Ghraib , come together ?
Anyone good at statistics or actuarial tables out there?
Oh, I see; it was either the way I read it or the way it was worded.
I'd say 100%, if you consider the scenarios posited on this thread.
