1. Red Herring
The real question is "Who are the big white guys that sawed Berg's head off?"

Any other question is a waste of time.

2. Concisely and accurately put.

3. Why are questions about the white plastic chairs
a waste of time? Wal-mart has not, to my knowledge, opened any mega-stores in Iraq.

5. Okay, fair enough.
Though the same wall colour makes me even more suspicious. But what we really want to know is WHO WERE THE FAT WHITE GUYS?

9. My best guess is either Blackwater or
Brown-Kellogg-Root. Would not surprise me if they all voted for bu$h.

4. The chairs seem to be the same
The chair Berg was sitting in and a chair that appears in the prison appear identical. They are a common enough chair in the world. But that combined with all the other issues (including the wall color being the same) strikes a chord in some minds.

6. Not to mention the wall base molding is the same color
and Nicholas Berg is in an Orange prison jumpsuit. Did he look fearful, drugged, confused??? I refuse to watch the video

7. We could tell you Berg was eating squirrels...

Okay, that's hyperbole (not to mention in bad taste, but it is attention-getting...)

What we say is fettered by our perceptions. What you hear from us may or may not be the unaltered truth.

Now I saw the same colored walls as those in the prison of which controversial acts took place. I saw the same chair in the same prisons. Does this mean it's the same location? No. Does it mean this was somewhere else? No.

Berg wore an orange jumpsuit IDENTICAL to those the US makes gitmo prisoners wear. Does this mean US agents killed him? Maybe. Maybe he also escaped from us and got caught by 'the other side'.

I saw a gaggle of heavyset guys, more than half of which were wearing expensive bulletproof vests and incongruous looking headwrappings. This does suggest foul play by the US government, but that is conjecture. Not proven fact.

I don't know what the language they spoke was, but it didn't sound authentic. What that means I haven't a clue.

I can't say Arabs killed him. I CAN say that there is reasonable doubt that somebody else didn't try to frame those we're "at war" with. I don't know. It's up to the US government to be impartial and unethical. In other words, we'll never get the truth.

It is, ultimately, up for you to watch and decide for yourself.

and, yes, the video is horrific and disturbing. Maybe it's for the best you don't see it. But if you saw the Daniel Pearl video, it's essentially the same thing.
