It's depressing to think things like this can still happen in today's world. Nobody deserves to die like that guy did.

for once i'm going to agree with bush on this one... the people who did this must be hunted down and punished.  now, personally i would torture them for a while and subject them to the same death  that they inflicted upon Mr. Berg. our constitution forbids this however, therefor i hope that these sinners rot in the hell that they have dammned themselves to and i hope that we get to send them there. after trial, of course

They knew before didn't they.. but didn't want the press to know (i don't blame them). imagine having to come to terms with that while being hounded by the press.

They blame the Bush administration.

They blame the Administration in a broad sense.

However, they direct their true scorn at the US military, which they claim was complicite in the detaining of their son by Iraqi police. This detainment, presumably, allowed him to be targeted by militants.

>>>
Mr. Berg was detained in March by the Iraqi police in the northern city of Mosul, American officials and his parents said. While he was in police custody, he was questioned by F.B.I. agents who were trying to determine what he was doing in Iraq and whether he was a United States citizen.

At the same time, his parents, frustrated by their inability to find out about their son's whereabouts, filed a lawsuit in federal court in Philadelphia on April 5 asserting that he was being held by the American military in violation of his civil rights. A day later, he was released.

He disappeared soon after that.

My heart is with the Berg family.

I've seen the video, it's pretty fucking nasty.

I don't really have a problem with Iraqi insurgents shooting it out with US Soldiers. They're soldiers, they're incredibly well trained, and they have the ability to fight back. Nic Berg wasn't a US Soldier, he was a civilian. Even taking him hostage in the first place is completly unacceptable, executing him is crossing a major boundery. I hope to see the bodies of the people who did this.

I couldn't watch the video, I had it on my desktop then started to watch it and suddenly when I started to hear the screams, I just shut it off, I couldn't watch the rest and I didn't and I won't.  I deleted it.  

Just to think what Mr. Berg was thinking right before they excuted him and what the family is going through, i can't even imagine it.  And the press, don't get me started on these fucks.  To even have the nerve, the gull to make this public, they should be ashamed.  Then the press and people talk about how bad GTA3 and similar video games are a bad influence, wtf?

I do not understand how u guys can be going on to the net to activly find this video so you can watch it..

firstly its just plain bloody sick. thats a man having his throat cut, not a movie trailer.

secondly his family were very clear how they did not want the media reporting it etc... how do you think they feel that people all over hte place are downloading the last moments of their sons life before he has his head cut off?

Jesus Christ this world is so fucked up in every possible way.

Hopefully this kind of thing dose not happen again but I fear it will.

I hope these people are brought to justice and also the soldiers that abused people in the prisons. There is no justification for any of it.

Peace will come eventually. But more will die.

Well putt.

Apart of me is saying "this is so wrong and these men should be brought to justice".

Then another part says (putting myself in the place of an Iraqi) "I'm pissed off at this occupying force that came here on a lie to take our oil while killing thousands of my people".

I'm not trying to to justify what these men have done.  Killing Innocent civilians is wrong and they should be punished.  All i'm saying is i've tried to keep an open mind through this sick awful war.  I recognize their hate and understand it.  What if this was happening to us.  I know if some outside force came and occupied us in the U.S. and killed members of my family or friends, the first thing i believe would cross my mind is "seek out and kill them who ever they my be".
