Background
on Nick Berg
1] Berg
had connections to al Qaeda terrorists strong enough to be questioned
by the FBI. His email was used by accused terrorist Zacharias Moussaoui.
He reportedly gave his email to an affiliate of Moussaoui's while on a
bus ride in Oklahoma. During this period he was arrested several times
for vagrancy on his college campus where he was apparently homeless.
2] The
United States and the Iraqi police detained Berg for 13 days, not releasing
him until his father filed suit. He was detained as a suspected Israeli
spy. The US now denies it had anything to do with the detention despite
correspondence to the contrary. The Iraqi police also deny any involvement
in his detention. They are playing hot potato with it.
3] When
Berg was detained he, a Jew, had a copy of the Koran and an anti-semetic
book entitled 'The Jewish Problem'. That is just strange. Some have speculated
the Koran may have been to help him travel in an Islamic nation, but if
Berg took such preparations why didn't he have the Israeli stamp in his
passport put in a temporary add in page; This would be normal for someone
traveling to both Israel and a Muslim nation since both have problems
with the visa stamps of the other.
4] Nick
Berg's dad and Berg's tower company appear on a Free Republic 'enemies'
list. The list isn't too long. I'm not on it under any alias I've used.
5] Nick
Berg's tower company is not registered in his home state of Pennsylvania.
While not a legal requirement, state officials report it would be nearly
impossible to do business without registering.
6] One
of the towers Berg worked on, the biggest and most damaged one, was next
to the prison.
7] No
one can account for Berg's whereabouts from between April 10th (when his
father believes he was killed) and the day his body was found. He looks
very clean and well fed to have been held prisoner by savages for over
a month.
8] The
US has not stated how his body was identified. It didn't have a head.
It should have taken some time to ID. Reports have stated that 'his headless
body was found ..." His body was identified and his parents notified
before the video aired.
9] Berg's
body, though he was a civilian, was flown by the military to Dover Air
Force Base. According to Department of State Publication 10391, Bureau
of Consular Affairs, Revised September 1996, "The U.S. Government
cannot pay to have your body buried overseas or returned to the United
States." This is a publication intended for Americans living / working
abroad as Berg was. His parents requested to be there when it arrived
but were denied.
Berg
was dead when beheaded, execution faked
10] No
blood spurts from his neck as he is supposed to be dying. The amount of
blood on the floor is much smaller than it should have been. He should
have died from bleeding out and this would have resulted in a couple of
liters of blood spurting from his neck. According to medical experts he
should have died from bleeding out. Even if his spine was severed quickly
he should have continued to bleed until his heart ran out of blood; this
was the reason for having straw under the guillotines during the French
revolution. These heads would also remain animated for some time.

what an expert surgeon has said about the lack of blood click
here.
Another doctor, a surgeon and forensic expert has commented
here.
11] No
blood gets on the hand of 'Zarqawi' even though it was in front of Berg's
neck when he should have been bleeding out. Medical experts have commented
that blood should have spurted several feet and gotten all over the nearby
men.
12] Berg
doesn't struggle or even flinch when his head is sawed off with a western
style military knife. Any movements can be explained by the way his captors
are moving him. Observe that they tension in the direction of the motion,
not the opposite direction as if they were holding him still.
13] The
body makes no death throws. None. Nada. Most animals, when they die, convulse.
14] Almost
nothing dripped from the recently severed head. The face seems to be stiff
and there seems to be makeup on it. Rigamortis appears to have set in.
15] Berg
continues to 'scream' after his windpipe has been cut through.
The Nick
Berg Video has many problems
16] The
whole time line is completely confused. There are many inconsistencies
in the time line. The most obvious is that he was 'found Monday over the
weekend'.
17] Between
Berg being knocked to the floor and then hacked up, the video cuts for
no reason. Any amount of time could have elapsed here.
18] Some
people believe this is a two camera shoot. I don't think so since the
time code font and location, as well as the color balance, seem the same.
If they are two different cameras I think they are the same model, which
would be odd. Two cameras would mean a higher level of editing sophistication
and that makes me really wonder why the editor would choose not to synch
up the sound, etc.
19] The
website to which the video was released was down within 90 minutes. All
major news organizations supposedly learned of this video and obtained
copies within that time. Al Jazeera was unable to access the website 90
minutes after the release.
20] The
speaker fumbles the transcript several times and goes back to the same
page several times. It appeared he was having trouble reading his own
statement. He found five pages of a two sides two page statement to read.
There is no matching pause for turning the pages.
21] The
speaker is reading from left to right. Arabic (except numbers) is read
from right to left.
22] The
time codes jump around in way not explainable solely by a two camera set
up.
23] Some
people have suggested that the audio is just out of time synch. If this
is the case then it is out of time synch by substainly different amount
at different locations, including an audio cut out of 5 seconds. An analysis
of the video can be found at liberty
forums.
24] During
the hacking up the video camera zooms in indistinctly just when you would
expect the filmer to be trying for the most horrid details. If this was
a two camera filming, why wasn't the other footage used?
25] The
guy hacking off the head has a black hood, there is a very subtle cut
at the end (after Thy Will Be Done) and another guy switches places, the
tall one with the white mask and black hands. The time code jumps over
a minute.
The men
in the video weren't Arab 'al-Qaeda Terrorists'
26] 'Zarqawi'
is wearing a large gold ring. Islam reportedly forbids men to wear gold
jewelry. Even if he didn't care he'd have to know the Arab world would
consider him a fraud.
27] The
rifle is a Galil variant. This is an Israeli rifle and is considered to
be unreliable. Arab militants wouldn't use them. The guns are all either
Galils or Mac's.
28] Zarqawi
is thought to be dead and is known to have an artificial leg. Clearly
the man hacking off the head didn't. The CIA has previously reported both
of these facts and has made no acknowledgement of, or explanation for,
changing their minds.
29] Zarqawi
is known to have a tattoo on the back of his left hand of three green
dots. The man hacking off the head didn't have a tattoo on his hand.
30] All
the men had nice WHITE hands. Except in the last 20-30 seconds when the
face appears to have been digitally lightened, the hands are as white
or whiter than Berg's skin. Arab terrorists don't have white hands. UPDATE,
the last man has black hands, this is the very tall one who swaps in at
the end to hold up the head.
31] All
of the men had identical, nice, clean clothing. It looked new. This is
unlikely for rogue combatants in a war zone. It is likely if someone needed
some 'terrorist' clothing for a video.
32] Western
sports style white shoes are very uncommon in Arab nations. I didn't notice
this but it was pointed out by a friend who lived in the Mid east. I looked
at the current National Geographic on Iraq and could not find one pair
of tennis shoes.
33] If
Zarqawi was in the video, why didn't he show his face? It is known to
the US already. It would have established the video's authenticity. It
would have inspired fear. So why's it covered?
34] The
real Zarqawi speaks with a Jordanian accent. According to a CNN mid-eastern
expert who is a fluent translator, this 'Zarwaqi' did not speak with a
Jordanian accent. She dismissed the possibility of it being him out of
hand. The CIA seems to be ignoring this and is virtually certain that
the voices match. Why is the CIA so blatantly lying?
35] The
'militants' stood with a Western posture. When they moved in, their movements
were rehearsed. Each knew where he was going when the action happened
as if it were pre-planned.
36] Three
of the 'Arab militants' brought their left hands to their faces during
the video. The left hand is unclean in Arabic nations. It is used to wipe
one's ass. The left hand is taboo. An Arab wouldn't eat with it or offer
it to someone, they are unlikely to touch their eyes with it, it is unclean.
37] Some
people have said the men were only adjusting their scarves. If this is
so, why aren't they used to wearing such clothing?
38] An
Islamic extremist would know the proper way to behead someone. It is the
chosen form of execution in Saudi Arabia. It is accomplished with one
clean sword stroke to the neck. The person sawing off the head obviously
had a great deal of difficulty doing so, owing to the poor choice of blade
and technique.
39] The
registrant for the 'al Qaeda' website in Malaysia at which the video was
originally released is Arab Press House in London, UK. Published at this
address are ASHARQ AL-AWSAT, 'The Leading Daily Arab International Newspaper'
with a circulation of around a Quarter-Million, and several Arab news
magazines. This is a news service, not 'al Qaeda'.
40] Except
for the individual reading the prepared statement, the only words said
by the other 'terrorists' were "Allah Akbar" over and over.
The speech was somewhat slurred. The accent differs significantly from
the reader. An Arabic language expert has stated that the other individuals
were likely not native speakers of Arabic.
41] This
video came out just when it would help the Bush regime the most. Fucktards
everywhere are now using it to justify widespread US war crimes. Hardly
the sort of reaction Islamic militants would desire, but obviously quite
predictable.
42] Berg
is wearing an orange uniform identical to those used by the US for detainees.
43] The
walls and baseboards are identical to the Abu Ghraib prison. The room
size is institutional in size.
44] Berg
is shown in a chair identical to those in the prison. These chairs are
not extremely rare, but the odds of both chairs being identical is slim.
45] At
13:45:58 an individual with white skin, a military outfit, and a military
hat identical to one worn by a guard at Abu Ghraib passes quickly through
the lower right of the frame. This person's side re-enters several times.
At 13:46:26 their left ear and hat is clearly visible in the lower right
of the frame for a second. They have a pen in their left pocket where
it would be impossible to reach with their right hand. Left handed individuals
are taboo in Islamic cultures, you can not be a left-handed Muslim Arab,
you can not write with your left hand. For more a complete analysis of
this scene click
here.
46] The
video never mentions the word 'Al Qaeda', it uses the word al qaed. These
are two different words, one is a name and means 'The Base'. The other
is not a name and translates as 'one who sits by and does nothing'. This
translation is from the CNN arab language expert. She reports that any
fluent speaker of Arabic would notice this difference.
47] The
speaker in the tape didn't seem to know the correct arabic date and instead
stated a day several days after the video was released.
48] Near
the end of the video, after the chanting stops, a Western voice says "Thy
Will be Done", it then repeats itself and the video instantly cuts. Hear it at

Our Conclusion,
The Nick Berg Video is a Fake
If it
were for just one or two of the above problems, I could write it off to
strange coincidences or inaccurate information. Given the scope of the
errors with the official story, it is obvious we are being lied to about
the video. It is very difficult to say, ever, who ran a false-flag operation.
Who ever made this video had motive and opportunity which narrows it down
mostly to Western interests. It is certain that Nick Berg was not executed
via decapitation by 'Al-Qaeda Terrorist al-Zarqawi'. It seems quite likely
that the video was shot in Abu Ghraib, which would narrow the killers
down to those with secure access to that facility.
